Web Design in Oklahoma City

Last week, we announced the beginning of Fall Kickoff, our fun fall promotion where we all score big with new features. This week is the kickoff of the Fall Kickoff and I'd like to share with you the line up for this week.

New LightCMS website

First off, we've got a brand new LightCMS product website. The website is completely redesigned, restructured, rewritten, and re-just-about-everything-you-can-do-to-a-website. 

"Sure," you say, "but a website is just a marketing piece. How does that help me?" 

Well, one thing we've done to help all of our LightCMS customers is created a new resources section, which will serve as a one-stop location for all of the resources we provide for you. This new section houses a great selection of resources currently and it will make it easier for us to expand our resource offerings in the future.

Another things we're adding is a dedicated LightCMS blog. We're separating it off from our company blog in order to be able to provide more LightCMS-specific content for our LightCMS customers.

Finally, we're also adding the all new LightCMS network and partner listings. More on this feature below.

LightCMS Rewards

Now, this is a big one. We've been working a long time developing ways to reward our growing base of LightCMS resellers, and now we are ready to unveil LightCMS Rewards.

This program offers you value-added benefits based on the amount of LightCMS revenue your account generates each month. You will qualify for LightCMS rewards with as little as $100/mo in LightCMS revenue. From there, you will promote up through various levels and earn more benefits (including cash back) as your revenue stream grows. All of these benefits are, of course, in addition to the profit you already earn as you set your own pricing on the LightCMS system.

We're going to hold off on publishing the specifics of all of the benefits on all of our rewards levels. You'll be able to view these specifics as soon as our new website is live. You'll also be able to access full information about LightCMS rewards and enroll in the program on your account dashboard. Once these new features are launched, login and visit the "My Account" area and you'll see a new sidebar element giving you the details about your current revenue and whether or not your qualify for LightCMS rewards. If you qualify, you'll see the image to the right, inviting you to complete the quick enrollment form and get started.

The LightCMS Network

Everyone who enrolls in LightCMS rewards will have the option of listing their business on the LightCMS network. The network is a public listing on our new public website that lists your company name, a link to your website, your location, and a list of the website services you provide. The network is designed to help customers who are looking for the services you provide to find you and connect with you easily. You don't have to be listed publicly on the network to participate in our rewards program, but we strongly encourage you to consider this opportunity to get your business out in front of a whole host of potential customers.

Shine the Light!

Another benefit of the LightCMS Rewards program is eligibility to participate in our new Shine the Light! program (I know, so many "programs"). Shine the Light! is a brand-new opportunity to partner with us in donating websites to deserving non-profit organizations. You pick the organization. You donate your design services. We'll donate a LightCMS subscription on any of our website plans for a period of one year.

Much more

There are many more benefits included in the LightCMS Rewards program. We're excited to introduce the whole program to you, but you'll have to wait just a couple more days for full details.

Game time

Speaking of the details, we are currently planning to kick off on this Wednesday morning, September 30th. We'll post more specifics on times via Twitter when we know for sure. 

UPDATE: these upgrades are scheduled for Wednesday morning, September 30th, in a window of 8am to 9am CDT (GMT-5). We do not anticipate any downtime during these upgrades, but we are providing the maintenance window so that you will be aware.

We're excited to get this game underway. And remember, this is just the beginning. Fall Kickoff will continue with more feature releases in the weeks and months to come. While this initial release focuses on LightCMS-specific features, there will be plenty of features to come that benefit all of our CMS products. Stay tuned.
