A deep dive transformation for your online presence. Your VIP Day is customized just for your needs.

  • your personal academic website for professors designed for you, a website that can grow with you over time
  • your done-for-you LinkedIn profile makeover
  • social media profile set-up or YouTube channel creation with personalized training
  • getting personalized training and choose-your-own adventure activities to build your capacity on social media or with your online presence
  • graphic design and content creation for your research lab or group

We start with our call on Zoom to chat about working together. People used to feel like the road to their online presence dreams as an academic was out of reach. “I just don’t have the time.” “I’ve wanted this for years.” “I could build the skills, but I’d rather have you do it for me.”

Hi, I’m Jennifer van Alstyne. I created VIP Days to support professors and researchers in their online presence when you need a big transformation, and you don’t have a lot of time.

Let’s meet on Zoom to chat about ways we can team up for your online presence. Choose a time to chat about customizing your VIP Day.

Most VIP Days I create for academics are done-for-you services like me designing your academic website for you. Or your LinkedIn profile makeover.

Some VIP Days are done-with-you, where we’re meeting together for live personalized training and transformation on Zoom. Or a pairing of consultation with done-for-you support.

The VIP Day that’s right for you? It fits into your schedule. It supports your goals. And on the other end is a feeling of relief that ‘this is finally done.’ That your online presence feels more like you, that you have a path forward, that you got there with more ease than expected. Let’s meet about the VIP Day that’s right for you.

What will we do and transform on your Online Presence VIP Day as an academic? It depends on our conversation when you schedule your no pressure Zoom call to chat with me about working together.

You’ll feel confident in how your VIP Day fits into your schedule by the end of our chat. I’m used to working with professors around the world, so let’s chat about what works for you.

Together, we’ll dream about your future and actually show that through changes to your website, social media, or digital footprint. We’ll work towards a stronger online presence for you that’s a closer representation to who you are and what you value as an academic.

  • A Planning Meeting with Jennifer on Zoom where we dive into a warm conversation about your hopes for your online presence and your professional goals. Jennifer comes with questions to guide our chat.
  • Your VIP Day where 100% of Jennifer’s focus is on you and your online presence
  • A Review and Training Meeting scheduled at your convenience when your VIP Day is done
  • A follow up consultation after 1 year

For faculty whose personal website needs a higher level of customization (and for most research lab websites). While we can do 2 VIP Days for your website project, my Team VIP Day Service is sometimes a better fit. Your team includes Jennifer leading the project + 1 website designer + 1 writer / researcher. Together, we’ll get even more done for you in just 1 day. Let’s meet on that no pressure Zoom call to talk about your needs.

Let’s chat about your hopes for your online presence. I created VIP Days when one of my consultation clients needed done-for-you support. When you need less support, a 1 or 2 hour consultation may be a better fit. Let’s chat about what may feel helpful for you.

Prefer to do it yourself for your website?

You can schedule a 1 hour consultation with if you’d like to review your new website together with expert advice. We can even make changes together in real time when helpful for you.
