Phil,

Thanks so much, these ideas are worth looking into!

Don,

My friend isn't a web designer and doesn't want to be one, so she's looking to do videos for businesses in some way, not create web sites. But thanks!

Michael,

I know you're based in Australia, so you probably don't have a good sense of how bad things are getting for the middle class in the U.S. right now. This article might help you understand:

My friend is a commission-only sales rep in a local area where people are everywhere either falling behind in the ways described in the article or in fear that they will. Businesses are mostly cutting back on expenditures, advertising and marketing... not everyone, but many are.

Again, thanks everyone!

Marcia
