My crazy organizational skills took over and I began to constantly brainstorm on different ways to market his business and make it as professional and successful as I know it can be.
The first item on the list was to make a professional flier. This flier would be available to his clients and to also pass out to local businesses in order to get his name out there. The flier gives a little background information on Wes and also lists his services and rates. Here is the final product:
Obviously I don't intend for you guys to read that, but you get the general idea of what it looks like. I just used a template on Microsoft Word and customized it with what Wes wanted. Turned out pretty good I think. :)
Our next idea for marketing was new business cards. We used VistaPrint online and were very pleased with the finished product. They just came in the mail yesterday.

Even though Wes has always had the studio, this time it is almost like a new "grand opening". Wes has a stronger commitment than ever to really make this dream a reality. He has confirmation from the Lord that this is where God wants him to be and plans to do whatever it takes to make it a success.
With that in mind, we have decided to do an official "Open House" to celebrate the new beginning of Edge Studios. I decided that the best way to get people invited was to mail out postcards but I wanted them to be professional so I used VistaPrint again for designing them. We ended up getting 100 for FREE; great deal!! And they look great too!
The Open House will be Thursday, September 1st from 6:30-8:30 PM at the studio. I think it will be a great time for all his clients, friends, and family to come out and celebrate this new business endeavor.
Here are how the postcards turned out:

Wes has been SUPER busy in the studio this past week. He has had a session pretty much every single night. There have even been a few days where he has had two or more sessions in one day.
God is SO good and SO faithful!!
The rest of the studio renovations have been cleaning up the studio and adding a few decorative touches to make it look really professional. It looks awesome and his clients have already been saying great things and appreciate all the hard work Wes had put into making the studio look as good as it does.
Control Room (1) We bought these two new leather chairs from Ross ($50!) They go perfect with the modern feel of the studio.

We bought this table from Hobby Lobby to go in the entry way when you walk in the front door.
The awesome guitar lamp came from Hobby Lobby too. We are also using the table to put his business cards on and the fliers will go underneath in the holder.
New artwork for the hallway.
Another look at the artwork from a different view. Looking towards the front door.
The bathroom was the next room that needed some TLC. Looks great now!!

Wes would want me to mention that hard wood floors are the next renovation to happen once we get enough money saved up. He's not to fond of the red carpet. :)

The producer himself in his element :)
As you can see, I am one very, very proud wife. I love that Wes is following God's calling for his life and I am overjoyed to get to stand by his side and support and encourage him every single step of the way.
If you are interested or know someone who might be interested in learning more about the studio, scroll down to the bottom of my blog page for a direct link to Wes's website. :) He is also on Facebook as "Edge Studios Recording".
This is the "new" beginning of Edge Studios....but it is definitely only the beginning.
