I really need you to let your wordpress and related skills be known to me.. I probably follow you on Twitter or are friends with you on Facebook if you found this page.. I want to help you get business and help my friends who contact me get exactly what they are after.
I’m going to create a mini-Wordpress directory on this site for the "little" or "big" things that people do.
You do not need to be a "company" (although it’s fine if you are!) but if you are an individual that just "loves" playing around with photoshop or themes, etc, or just really good at offering marketing advice, or love facebook so much that you would love to get paid to build up others, etc.. basically.. I’m after the "micro-niche" jobs that you are willing to do for fellow WordPress Blog owners, so that I can recommend "that particular" niche/want from my clients & friends directly to you and know that you can do that particular "niche".. with joy in your heart! :)
Please use the contact form or post a comment to this post with exactly what you are good at and willing to help people with.
If you can mention how much you charge, please do so, but I understand that most of the work will be on a case-by-case basis, but things like hosting might be a fixed price that you can mention.
I’ll update this post in full when it’s not 4am in the morning on my birthday lol, but hopefully you get the gist .. I’ll be away this weekend at a NLP seminar in Melbourne so won’t have access to my computer.. (so comments will be moderated for the next 4 days) but want to get the ball rolling right now, otherwise I’d add it to my "todo list.. the "one day" list that happens months down the track.. and I’d really like to recommend people right now for some of the jobs (in particular.. theme customisation is the most common request, followed by various marketing requests, but with a micro niche directory of all types of little services, I’m sure that everyone here will see the value in sharing our resources, and helping people out at the same time)
There are probably plenty of directories around that are similar to this but I want one full of you guys.. people that I’ve connected with already.. Facebook/Twitter friends/Blog visitors, etc.

The work was done very quickly and with excellent quality. A winner all the way around. 
Extremely happy with the finished project. This is by far one of most pleasing and dedicated people I've ever worked with. I highly recommend any services they offer. I'm confident that they will take care of you as they have for myself and many others.
Out of everything that you have mentioned on your article, I can do all of these jobs:
# SEO
# Keyword Research
# PHP, CSS, JavaScript scripting
# Create & Maintain databases; mostly MySQL
# Social Media Marketer
# Internet Marketer
# Blog Installer
# Custom-Blog Designer
# WordPress Coder
# WordPress Theme Creator
# “Anything else that WordPress Users might find useful”
NOT these (I can but I hate doing them):
# Web Designer, # Graphic Designer
# Twitter Fanatic
# Forum Poster
# Article Writer
# Submission Genius
I do all sorts of custom site design work with WordPress, but my main service is that I teach people how to customize, build, and maintain their own WordPress sites, so they don’t need to continually shell out money for designers just to keep their site updated.
I teach a class, called WebFit, which teaches people all they need to know to manage their own sites.
And yes, I advise people on domain names, I can provide hosting, and handle all aspects of creating a WordPress site from the ground up.
Questions? Come visit Monk at Work for more info or to get in touch.
Thanks!

@HatLord – Hiya HatLord – I’ve just added the Business Directory to the site, please head over to this link – http://pennybutler.com/wordpress/add-your-skills to add your listing :)
@Adam Kayce – Hiya Adam – I’ve just added the Business Directory to the site, please head over to this link – http://pennybutler.com/wordpress/add-your-skills to add your listing :)
Hey Penny – this is another great idea! Just added my details to the directory. Are you actively promoting this as the kind of skills to be found will always be in demand. Sweet plugin by the way!
@Maui SEO – I’m trying to build up the directory, mostly because of the amount of emails I get for all types of small micro-niche jobs that people don’t want to email a “big company” about because of fear of price. They just want to “fix their theme”, “fix their blog”, “add this design”, “get promoted”, “integrate twitter”, “update wordpress”, you know.. the small things where they don’t want to pay a fortune just to do “this tiny thing”, so yeah I hope that a lot of people who are willing to open their market up to the small jobs will add themselves to the directory – because there is certainly a big market out there for those who are willing to do the little things – and once the trust is established, I’m sure that many will be more willing to do the bigger things with that person if they are happy with their services :)
