About Us ‣ Red Balloon Web Design

I am easy to talk to. I understand being a novice technology user and can talk to you about your website or blog in layman's terms.
I love to work with tiny businesses/blogs/non-profits and solopreneurs.
My fees are very affordable and flexible.

This company is small and personal.

My aim is to help individuals who have or want to have a website or blog to communicate about their activities and passions in life, on the internet. I've worked with new businesses, non-profits, musicians and bloggers.

RBWD is based in Wayzata, MN and works with clients locally and throughout the USA.

I have helped small businesses gain or expand their Web presence, and I can help you do that too.

Terri was quick and responsive, even though the project I gave her was not fully formed. She was patient with me, which made it a great working relationship

Having never used a web designer I was unsure of how the process would evolve. Terri with Red Balloon Web Design was patient and knowledgable in guiding me through the design and execution of my website. The web page is perfect for my needs and truly professional in its utility and appearance. It has already been useful in generating new seasonal business and I look forward to an increase in business next year. I would wholeheartedly recommend Red Balloon Web Design. Ho Ho Ho!!

Working with Terri at Red Balloon Web Design was a dream come true. I needed someone to help me update my website. Not only did she take care of the updates, she discovered several errors and missteps made by my web designer and has been instrumental in getting these things fixed as well. Now my website is getting more activity, and my leads are in line with my ideal client. Thank you, Terri!

Terri helped us tremendously! We had an outdated site and a significant time crunch to get things updated. Terri was extremely helpful with her information and expertise to guide us on what to do and we have been extremely pleased with the results! We are actually proud of our website now thanks to Terri!

I cannot say enough good things about Red Balloon Web Design! She worked with me for over 14 months to bring our website to life — and throughout that long process she was endlessly patient, encouraging, and supportive. Because it took me quite a while to gather all the content and details, I truly appreciated her step-by-step guidance, helpful reminders, and thoughtful advice every step of the way. She never rushed me, always explained things clearly, and made the entire experience feel manageable instead of overwhelming. The end result is a beautiful, professional website that perfectly captures our business — and I honestly could not have done it without her expertise and steady support. If you’re looking for a web designer who is skilled, kind, responsive, and committed to seeing your project through to the finish line (no matter how long it takes!), I highly recommend Red Balloon Web Design.

Working with Terri at Red Balloon has been a great experience. She keeps me consistently updated on the website’s progress and makes it easy to collaborate and exchange content. She knows exactly how to present information effectively and has a strong understanding of the backend—especially SEO and keywords. I’m excited to see the final product. The pricing has been very reasonable, and the service has been outstanding!

How did you get into this line of work?

My first career was working as a registered pharmacist in a large HMO clinic. I loved the precision required in the work, and the educating opportunities I got when I spoke to patients at the counter. I transitioned to being a full-time stay at home mom to 4 little boys, and got to hone my organizational and logistical skills. As I was living the life of a busy mom, I was missing out on the rise of computer use as a tool of daily living and I really regretted that. I wanted to learn how to use the computer but didn't have a direction or purpose for doing so. When my kids got older and more self-reliant, I returned to school yet again for a 3rd college degree. This time I went to a technical college and got an AA degree in Technology Management. Today, with Red Balloon Web Design, I get to combine precision, creativity, relationships, educating and helping people. My goal going into school is still my goal today-- making affordable websites for small/tiny businesses, to help them increase their online presence and grow their businesses, and to take the stress out of a part of their jobs.

Why are you a great person to work with?

I am a registered pharmacist, turned web designer/developer- successful at two very different professions.
While taking advantage of this breadth of experience, I use both sides of my brain while working on your project-- I am creative with design and colors, and think outside of the box to achieve your goals, while also being meticulous about proof-reading text, being sure all parts of the site are working and being flexible in making adjustments in the site as they are warranted by analytics and user feedback.

Can you help me to pick the type of web platform that is best for me?

Absolutely!
There are a
lot of choices in web design and development.

I have experience making sites using Squarespace, Wix and Wordpress (Avada and Divi themes).

If none of that makes any sense, it's OK.
We talk everything through, making sure you understand what your choices are. I can explain things in layman's terms and we go at the pace that you are comfortable with. No question is a dumb question to me.

How do you charge for your work?

For new websites, site remodel projects, and blog projects - I will determine my fees after we discuss the scope of your plan in a complimentary conversation.

Refresh projects are completed for an hourly fee, measured in quarter-hour increments.

Maintenance contracts, and set-up of Google Business Profile prices are a set fee.

Free website audits for small businesses are a no-cost 15 minute meeting, to discuss a current site.
