WE Inspire Conference

Apr 14, 2010 Categorized: News •

On March 30th, Main Street Web Development attended the first annual Women Entrepreneurs Inspire Conference in Oklahoma City. With a goal of 400 attendees, the Oklahoma State University Riata Center for Entrepreneurship outdid themselves with an attendance of over 650 women entrepreneurs! Talk about exciting!! I’m here to tell you that the future of America was sitting all in one room that Tuesday. I’ve been to lots of conferences in my various fields of study, and I’ve never been to a more motivating venue.

Main Street Web Development was featured in the first edition of The Altus Aviator today. Here’s what The Aviator had to say:

McKelvey offers affordable websites

“The DigiFix Web Design Studio, the answer for Altus businesses seeking affordable internet presence, has just made personal web design even more inexpensive.

“Heather McKelvey, founder and executive director, says the web sites are easy to use and easy to find. She is announcing her latest endeavor, Main Street Web Development, where websites can be created for less than $30 a month.

Cheap websites are a dime a dozen. There are plenty of places on the web you can go to get a website for just a few bucks a month. Problem is, they’re kind of ugly. And if, indeed, you do happen across one that really looks great, you have to do it yourself! Now for do-it-yourself kind of folks, this is a good proposition. But for those of you who don’t want any website DIY in your life, you’re kind of up a creek if you don’t want to make the initial investment a custom website requires.

At The DigiFix Web Design Studio, we have realized this conundrum for quite some time, and we’ve been working on a solution that acts like a “crossover” website. With our new line of websites at Main Street Web Development, we are taking the affordable price of a DIY website, the fabulous creativity of a custom website, and DOING IT FOR YOU, to bridge that gap between what you want and what you can afford.

I already regret not taking a photo today. It’s what all good coupon ladies do when they save a bundle. I always feel slightly embarrassed for them when I see their whole load of groceries laying out there for everyone to see. It sort of makes me feel like a nosy grocery clerk. You know, the one that comments on everything on the conveyor belt? My blood’s already boiling just thinking of it. So with that in mind, I chose not to photograph my big load today. But now that I’ve tallied up the earnings, I really wish I had a picture to prove it. It’s like a rite of passage for a brand-new couponer to have a photo to show the goods. You’ll just have to take my word for what I bought.

I’ve missed a lot of blog posts lately due to the enormous amount of work I’ve poured into my latest project. By now I should have blogged about two birthdays--Will’s 6th Birthday Bowling Party and Hunter’s 4th Birthday Tutu Party. I should have posted pictures of my spring sewing projects--a placemat art pocket, a baby doll dress, lots of tutus, and curtains for my office. And I should have blogged about my extremely smart kindergartener who reads at second grade reading level, his first tee ball season starting, my daughter who has grown nearly an inch on growth hormones, my grandmother, aunt and uncle who were spared in a potentially horrible car wreck, and the trees my husband planted in the back yard. But instead, I’ve spent every waking minute building a cool new website for Altus.

Thank you to everyone who has prayed for us and written us notes of encouragement over the past several weeks. We are so grateful for our fellow prayer warriors, and I can tell you we have literally FELT your prayers in tangible ways. I am happy to report that the McKelveys are all smiles again, despite the trials, and we are reclaiming normalcy despite our few new routines.

The results are in. Phase 1 in the McKelvey South Beach Diet is officially ending at midnight. Bill and I are both so near our target weight it’s crazy. Who knew two weeks could wipe out several years of extra pounds?

Pizza Soup South Beach is a good name for a diet. It’s a constant reminder of swimsuit weather. That name, however, does not make me any less hungry for something sweet and soft to sink my teeth into. I didn’t realize how often I just pick up something random to eat. And now...all those random things are off the list. And I know I have some spritz cookies left in my Christmas tree jar… And yes, I still have Christmas stuff out. (The tree is put away though.)

My list of New Year’s Resolutions, er, um, goals, does not include dieting. I plan to blog about that list at some point in time, once I fully have my mind made up about them. I figure, hey! Wait to see which ones you can keep, and call ‘em then! But anyway, the “d” word. Bill came home yesterday talking about his friend who is on the South Beach Diet. I could tell he was pretty determined to do it, and I realized that meant I, likewise, would be doing it with him. I am, after all, the one who prepares his meals. I can’t fix healthy stuff for him and eat the same old junk myself.

We’ve known for nearly four years now that we would come to this point. It’s not a major dilemma, and there are many things that would be much worse. But still, the reality of the moment is weighing so heavily on my heart. Today we received the official news from Hunter’s new endocrinologist that it is time to start growth hormones. All of the realities that we’ve been able to “ignore” for a while are once again on the surface.

I want to introduce you to my new company, The DigiFix Web Design Studio. I have been dreaming and planning for nearly two years about starting this company, and after much ado, the time has finally come to launch The DigiFix.

Sarah Palin was absolutely brilliant as she addressed the RNC with poise, confidence, and the skill of an experienced politician and speaker. Her resolute, cunning, and downright hilarious comments toward her opponent, the “liberal media”, and the “Washington elite” brought the RNC to their feet with uncontrollable applause and hoopla. America is excited about the reform Sarah Palin can bring to our government, and we will watch our nation rally around her and McCain like never before.

I’d like to blame my blogging absence over the past several weeks on the power having been out so much. But while that wouldn’t be entirely true, gathering candles and flashlights seems to have become the routine in our Southwest Oklahoma household this summer.

My blogs seem to be spacing farther and farther apart these days. I spent this entire last week dealing with some maintenance issues on a client website, which still are not resolved, as well as writing up a Photoshop tutorial. I hope to finish the tutorial over the weekend and attempt to get it published on one of my favorite Photoshop tutorial websites.

Delirious, once again, I realize that I have neglected my journaling for like, 4 days, and I am going to cram a bunch of nonsense and news into this one post. I’ve just been having too much fun to sit down at the computer.

Well I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. Ours was so full of blessings and fun! I’ve contemplated much the last few days about the true meaning of Christmas and how we have ended up making it such a season of busyness. I plan to take some time to think out my musings through some typed words, to which of course, you will be privy.

I’ve never been a school teacher in my life. I’ve never even wanted to be a school teacher. My college degree was not in music, although I did probably spend enough time in the music building to have earned one there. And I didn’t know a thing about how to create a comprehensive music curriculum for Kindergarten through fourth grade. So I was pretty dumbfounded when the principal of Will’s preschool asked to me to be the music teacher THE WEEK BEFORE SCHOOL STARTED. With NO curriculum.

Since I’ve been absent from my blogging habit for so long, I’m sure my out-of-towners are a little out of the loop on my current life situation. I thought I’d take a minute to update you on the happenings of our household.
