Thanks for taking the time to drop in and see what's going on around here. Let's go ahead and get something clear up front. David Walker Designs, the company as it were, is me, David. So, having said that I'm not going to try to make you <reader/business owner/potential client> think, through the clever use of pronouns like "we", "us", and "our", that this is some big design company with a team of employees. I can assure you that I'm not sitting in a big chair smoking cigars while ordering my employees to do all the work. (Hmmm, can I still talk about cigars or has that been deemed socially unacceptable?) You're probably here because you found me through a link at the bottom of a website or come across the site in the search engines. Either way, I'm assuming you have an interest in a website, search engine marketing, logo design, or some type of print design for your business. That being the case, you ended up at the right place.
I've been designing for Knoxville businesses and individuals throughout the East Tennessee area for over a decade. I've worked on a wide variety of web design projects ranging from prosthetics to children's ministries and everything in between. Over the past few years most of my work has revolved mainly around custom websites for real estate agents and internet marketing (aka search engine marketing and optimization). Even though most of my time is spent with real estate websites, I still certainly work for all types of clients.
So, Why would someone want "David Walker Designs" (still just me) to work for them, when they could have a "real" design company do their work? The biggest reason is simply money. I could come up with plenty of other reasons that sound much more professional, but when it's all said and done, it's all about cash. My rates are cheaper than any design company and I can produce the same level of quality work. After all, who do you think would do your work if you did go to a design company? I can tell you this, it wouldn't be the guy sitting in the big chair smoking cigars, it would be someone just like me.
If you came here expecting to be impressed with slick advertising talk and a clever sales pitch about internet marketing, I'm afraid you'll leave disappointed. However, if you're looking for someone to offer you quality work, honest advise about internet marketing and a fair price, you ended up at the right place.
Thanks again for stopping by,
- David Walker
One of my current projects is KnoxRealEstate.org. The idea of the site is to match buyers and sellers with Knoxville real estate agents that specialize in certain areas of Knox and surrounding counties. It features an easy to use map that let's people search specific areas within the counties.
