I’ve written before about how I’m more likely to make resolutions in the fall than at new years’. This is probably because a) I love the structure of a school year, even though it’s been a lot of years since I’ve been in school; b) I’d rather make resolutions around my age than any other arbitrary measurement [hence my 31 in 31]; and c) by the time New Year’s Day rolls around, I’m usually battling seasonal affective depression, so I usually prefer spending time in bed with Netflix to self-improvement. However, I love reading about behavior change. So here’s some good stuff to fill your Sunday. Here’s a list of the most common New Year’s Resolutions for Americans, and ways you can make them happen a little easier. Thirteen fresh starts for your new year – vintage Sarah Von at her finest.

In general, I try not to get all salesy with my work here, because that’s not really what this blog is for. HOWEVER. I want to kick off 2012 by reaching a wider audience of people. I want to work with a roster of clients that do awesome things and want to share the awesomeness with the rest of the Internet. And I know that category includes a bunch of you guys. I also know that cost can be a prohibitive aspect to getting good work done – you can’t afford a developer, so you end up trying to hack something together that maybe isn’t as good as you’d get if you could afford to pay someone who really knows how to do it well…which means you spend a ton...

One of my clients is a couple that owns several restaurants in the Cincinnati area who are opening a brand-new restaurant concept. We’re holding off on launching a full site until they’re certain when they’re opening, but for the time being, I made a quick placeholder site. I suggested the email signup form so that we can keep track of the people that want more information about Tot Dogs. After the full site launches, we’ll send an email announcement, and then that list will be our marketing list if we end up doing any email campaigns. [And it goes without saying, if you live in Cincinnati and you're into gourmet hot dogs, you should totally sign up for the list. It'll be neato.] The logo was done, so it was just a matter of finding a color scheme that worked well with it. I think it looks great. Don’t you?...
