Over the past couple of weeks, my email inbox has been screaming uncle. I keep telling him (yes, my inbox is male) to just man up already, but he’s gotten kind of whiny in his old age. This morning, he reminded me that a lot of people have been asking about this Gold-Digging Excursion thing we’re doing. How they really, really want to go, but either:
- They have no website
- Their site design entirely sucketh
or…
Combine this with the fact that I’m currently booked for design work until May 31st, and you’ve got a humdinger of a problem. But I’m not a problem kinda gal. I’m a solution kinda gal. So here’s what I did.
I designed this beautiful, gorgeous, oh-wow-I-wish-I-had-this-site kind of site. I built it on Headway, a WordPress framework that gives the non-techy person drag ‘n drop superpowers (even techy people will love it). And I decided to give it away to all of my Gold-Digger participants.
Go ahead, you can dance if you want to. (I am.)
So here’s the plan. If you have no website (or if your site design entirely sucketh), come with us. I designed this site for you and will show you how to get it going and customize it in the most strategic way possible. And you’ll get to do all of the other fun, empowering stuff that will help you find your website’s untapped cash potential (read more about the excursion here).
Wanna take a look?
I’m calling it Vega (click on the image for the full version).
Vega is a clean, customizable design that says “I am awesome!” without even trying. It’s WordPress-built, which means it’s easy for you to handle your content yourself, and even more than that, it’s Headway-built, which means it’s easy for you to customize the design yourself (if there’s something easier than drag ‘n drop, let me know…but I’m pretty sure that’s as simple as it gets). And it’s only available to Gold-Digging participants.
And with that…a shocking announcement
Well, sort of shocking. And kind of hard for me to say, actually. LiteSites are going on a vacation. (To Maui, I think. Someplace tropical.) I’m going to be focusing on my from-the-ground-up work and the Gold-Digging Excursion for a while.
If you’re already booked for a LiteSite, don’t fret! You’re still booked. And you are more than welcome to switch over to the Gold-Digging Excursion if you’re drooling over the Vega design and want to do in-depth profit-discovering activities with us.
And finally…
Early-bird registration is ending Wednesday. As in, tomorrow. And unless you’re signed up for yummies, you won’t be getting a reminder.
Bon voyage, LiteSites. Have fun in Maui. Bring me back something.


Sarah – you are incredible! I’m so looking forward to your gold-digging excursion!
Whew! I’m so glad I got my LiteSite when I did! ‘Tis truly the opposite of sucketh (what would the opposite of sucketh be?), and I wish you the best of luck with the gold-digging excursion!

Wow. Danielle LaPorte was right: this is brilliant. So brilliant I’d wonder if she had a hand in it but for the fact that Miss Sarah J is, like me, a solutions-type gal. Killer solution to what I suspect were three issues… this post is a marketing lesson all its own. Very, very smart.
And WOW #two: Tammy’s site! Besides that it’s a site for a designer (uh, expectations anyone?!) And besides that Tammy is cute enough to have a headway template named after HER… And besides that it’s lovely, unique, sleek, organic, personable and user-friendly… Man, that is a fine-fine memorial to the Lite-Site service which can not be got (for now?)
Sarah, you are the real dealio. That Melanie is loveilliant; this twist-y/trading post you’ve written is clevart; and your heart is in the all right kinds of places.
Keep up the good works. (And where’s your ‘donate’ button? Unless this is a library, I gotta tithe ~ !)

Wow. Back before I decided to dig for gold, I was trying decide between joining the excursion or doing a lite site… And now, you made me over the moon happy with my choice. And you are so graciously generous that I’m already learning loads from you! Whee!
.-= Briana´s last blog ..A chocolate croissant: Pleasure + Pain. =-.
Haha…YAY! My only concern is getting the word out that I’m doing this before tomorrow. Yikes! Just gotta trust that the people who need it will find it.
And GirlPie, wow. I just got your fountain-toss and was totally touched to the heart by it. THANK YOU. So humbled that you think that highly of what I write.
Sarah,
You rock! This is such amazing value. I’m doing a lite site but now I want both!!! Oh, wait, I have another site in the wings. Hmmm…I may be joining the expedition.
For anyone looking for a new logo. I highly recommend Sarah.
I hate the ship is sailing without me this trip. I’m still here waving (see me? I’m wearing the hat and huge shades) — and as I squint, I’m having tropical dreams that I’ll either be on the next total-immersion trek or at least have my very own consultation. (I am wading into new-to-me territory dealing with “corporate” magazine sites…I’m formulating a six-month plan {for the mags and then the sites/social media basics}.)
[...] because what Sarah’s doing rocks my world. Her business model, her presentation, her designs, her products and services: all of these [...]
