    Masterminds Welcome!

    Wyndavere City Proudly welcomes “Mastermind meetup.”

    @ Cafe’ Make, Wyndavere City !

    The Bravest thing you can do is follow your dreams, and reaching them is dependent on a strong support system.

    Some of us are blessed  to have great support from friends and family.  Sadly, this is  usually not the case. 

    Do your friends tug at your arm to go out with them when you mention working towards your dream? Is your family nagging you to “get your head out the clouds and get a Real Job?” I know I know, we’ve all been there, we love them for who they are and cherish their  company but let’s admit it, they’re not the best crowd when we are trying to reach our dreams.

    We all need someone to believe in us.

     Why not let me be that someone to you while you be that someone to me? I need you to pick me up when I fall and I promise to push you onward when you want to stop.

    That’s exactly what the MasterMind meetups are for! To help you get the support you need to go after your goals. We want to help you be courageous, We want you to be courageous, tackle the big dreams,the ones that keep you up at night….You know, the ones even YOU thinks are to nuts to to go after!

    Mastermind Meetups will be held twice on Sundays, once in the morning once in the evening ensuring everyone is full of positive energy and ready to crush it Monday morning.

     

    Get ready to  take on your goals!

    Our first official meetup will be:

    June 24th,2018

    6am-7am SLT and 6pm-7pm SLT

    @ Cafe’Make

    Bldg 2 , 2nd Floor

    Wyndavere City

     

    This will be a meet and greet where we’ll all introduce ourselves and review (with your input) the goals of the Mastermind Meetups.

    This is NOT a Second Life builders club, anyone with a dream is welcome and encouraged to join. These discussions are lead by Wynd Ling, and totally FREE (donations are always welcome!)

     

    Please join the Wyndavere City Second Life group or follow us on Twitter, Subscribo,or @ Wyndaveres.com to keep up to date on future events. Upon joining the group send a quick IM to Wynd Ling and request a “Mastermind” title. I look forward to  seeing you all there!

    Wynds tips #4 SEO Search Engine Optimization

    Wynd’s Tips #4 SEO ( Search Engine Optimization )  it’s for SecondLife too!

    SEO (Search Engine Optimization) for you! If you Optimize it they will come!

    SEO Search Engine Optimization

    Second Life is a search Engine no different from Google.

    Grab your customers & the Second Life Search engine’s attention by giving your products User-friendly/Search Engine friendly names, descriptions, & don’t forget to check off the “Show in Search” option on every new creation!

    Be Seen & Heard!

    If you don’t know what Search Engine Optimization is, think of it as the thesis statement to sum up a story. , At a quick glance, you want the search engine and  your customers to know exactly what it is you have to sell.

    Pick the most important words for both people and the Second Life search to know what it is you are selling and why they should buy it.

    Algorithm priority is typically given to  Username, Store Name, Creator Name, first 60 characters of the object title, first 160 characters to the object’s description. Make use of all of these fields to maximize your exposure through keyword rich copy.  

    Look for a Full 2 part series for both in-world products and  SecondLife Marketplace listings in the coming weeks and then the second part  2 weeks from then.

    OOooorr you can even contact me in world for a one on one chat over a cup of coffee at Wyndavere’s in SecondLife.

     

  • Sneak Peek

    Sneak Peek BIG news reveal

    Wynkie Wear, the brand that never was has been SOLD!

    Sometime ago  I introduced you all to a durpy sock puppet named Wynkie, with the intent of branching off and making a slightly naughty but quite comical line of fashion nobility items.

    Fairwell Wynkie, Enjoy your new home.

    The truth is while I  really enjoyed working on that branding package and all that went with it, I would like Wyndaveres to stay fresh, clean , romantic.

    It feels warm and cozy in here and I would like to keep it that way. Don’t get me wrong I’m not all beds of roses and romance, but I think giving Wynkie his own space, a proper home for his humor is the right move.

    So fairwell Wynkie, I know your new owner will  give you all you need to thrive!

    Fairwell, but not goodbye of course as the new fella will be opening his store Summer 2018 and promises to bring this brand to full life. Congratulations and enjoy your journey!

    If you are interested in getting some help developing your own store/product  branding contact me for pricing and to review your project or ask questions, ideas and knowledge are nearly always sometimes free.

    Also coming this week is another First for Wyndavere’s. I’ve been creating in  Second Life for as long as I have been a part of this wonderful community. In that time so much has changed as prims gave way to sculpt later to be replaced by full fledged CGI mesh models and rigging.

    In efforts to make room for newer creations, Wyndavere’s is proud to have our first ever discount store! Located on the second Level Of Wyndavere’s & packed full of “Circa Noobie” vintage works.  This section serves both as a museum of progress and a great place to pick up some “oldies but goodies” creations at extremely discounted rates.

    All items are between L$0 – L$80.

    At Wyndavere City we’re constantly adding new, wonderful products and events,  stop in often to catch the latest news about sales, discounts and events offered  to you, the wonderful residents of Second life! Want more? Join the Wyndavere City group today.

    *claps my hands together* now lets get into the tip already!

     

    Tip #1

    Improve your Snapshot quality by using the “Snapshot to Disk” option!

    Not only will you have a copy stored to your hard drive but it will be of superior quality compared to ones you Snapshot to your inventory, and who doesn’t want to hold on to those moments forever?!

    If you would like to see some of  my own photography stop by “Cafe’Make.” I’ve been a resident of Second Life for over  11 years and these are some of the photos I have shot while traveling the grid.

    I also do photography for weddings, first dates, birthday parties and any other live event request you might have. Check out my services for information on my rates and packages.
