 A couple of quick hurried thoughts about the website - more on 
 content/how we work
 Sorry I'm not up to date with discussion  hope this doesn't cover old 
 ground...

 1. I have noticed one or two potential customers going away becasue 
 they perceived we're (a) expensive (b) not offering 24/7 support:
 I wonder whether we should tackle this head-on by stating we don't try 
 to compete on price with corporate forces, we value work-life balance, 
 we don't offer 24/7 but respond ASAP to emails, and we have almost no 
 complaints about our service etc.

 2. Re doing a blog: I write 700 words a month it takes me between 5-10 
 hours, to do something decent, conscientious, researched, written in 
 plain English, and hopefully worth reading.
 I couldn't write alone about the areas Webarchitects would cover but 
 instead after a group discussion I could go away and turn something into 
 an article.
 How long's a typical blog? They vary a lot, but the point is that 
 several hours work for a blog posting worth circulating is a kind of 
 investment in longer-term consciousness raising, alongside promoting our 
 services, but it's not a small commitment. It's the equivalent of at 
 least a day's work, maybe two. Can we spare that? I hope so. Perhaps if 
 we aimed at one a month ... ?

 In a rush
