About Me: 
Lucy Beer is an online marketing professional (slash geek) of 8 years with a background in music and art online marketing campaigns. I launched Web Training Wheels to share the knowledge I continue to gather with small businesses, entrepreneurs & non-profits so that they can take a hands-on approach to their own online marketing efforts. I observed that online strategy sometimes gets left in the cold due to lack of knowledge, technical expertise or confidence. Through Web Training Wheels, I work with you to develop a solid foundation on which to build your online efforts for the future. I love nothing more than giving my clients the confidence and knowledge they need to go off and create their online empires. Go make me proud!
