1 Most businesses do not look at web sites as an important part of their business and are quite causual with their preparation and implementation.
2 My true avocation is writing scripts for film, TV and stage. One of these days I will find a producer with balls of steel who loves what I write and I can then concentrate on doing what I really want to do.
All the best with that! It seems to be persistence and a touch of luck!
The Answer to Your Question
I have been successful in getting people to listen to my advice on growing a good website. The following approach works for me and may work for you.
4 Finally if you are still having trouble getting your client to agree with you, then get a PowerPoint display together which organises the argument/ideas you want to get across. Include some examples of good web sites which are simple, effective and respected in the particular industry where your client operates.[/quote]
I've not tried that. Good idea.

Hi mate,
In the meantime, before you get your screenwriting break, I think at least copywriting will help you get better at persuading others - something scripts need to do sometimes.
But don't forget your dream - may the 'balls of steel' producer be on his way!
I haven't yet reached 10 posts on this forum, so can't post a URL, but I'd encourage you to search Google for a speech Steve Jobs (Apple founder) gave to Standford University graduates - bloody inspiring.
If you search for this you'll find his speech: "steve jobs speech standford university connect the dots"
His speech is called "you've got to find what you love".
All the best,
Paul
