Web Designer Roundtable #1 with Kyle Van Deusen, Shannon Mattern and Chris Badgett

Ep. 300 – Well hot dog, welcome to the big 3.0.0!!

It’s an honor to arrive at the #300 episode mark and real quick, I have to say a big “THANK YOU” to everyone who listens and subscribes to the show.

A podcast can’t survive or thrive without you listening, sharing or leaving reviews so from the bottom of my heart, I appreciate you being along for the ride and for making this podcast now the #1 podcast in web design!

For this special occasion, I’m hosting the first ever “Web Designer Round-table” where I’m bringing in a few close colleagues to have a casual, panel style chat.

(If this goes over well, I might even do this every quarter or at least a few times a year!)

In this one, our featured panel is:

• Kyle Van Deusen of theadminbar.com (voted the #1 community in WordPress)
• Shannon Matter of webdesigneracademy.com (group coaching program for Women in web design)
• Chris Badgett of lifterlms.com (one of the most popular and trusted learning management systems for WordPress)

Each one of them has unique insight being in different areas of the web design marketing and industry so it was a blast talking about what they see in web design for the rest of 2023 and into 2024!

We cover:

✅ What makes web designers stand out nowadays in a competitive market
✅ Where WordPress is compared to other website platforms
✅ “Kids these days” and whether WordPress is only marketed for people over the age of 30
✅ The lost art of communication

And much more.

Enjoy and if you liked this first round-table style discussion, please reply back or leave a comment on the post to let me know!
