"Beverly Howell has kept my fans involved in me through
my website. I have been able to speak to fans from
around the world through my site. My electronic press
kit has saved me postage and reproduction costs. You
can hear my music on my site and people can buy my music
directly from the site! This site has helped build my
reputation. Beverly has been working with me and my
manager for over 10 years. My working relationship with
Beverly is great and I am proud to have her name on my
site!"

"Outside of live performance, the best visibility for a
developing artist is through their website. A web
designer has to know what is important to the
development of an artist’s career to fully convey to
site visitors what the artist has to offer and why they
should be part of the artist’s fan base. A web designer
is an important part of the effort in attracting a wider
audience. The artist continually benefits from
visibility on the website even when not touring.
I
was incredibly fortunate to meet the right person for
this job when I met Beverly Howell. She has the talent
of a true artist in her designs and the experience of a
publicist in conveying the image of her client through
their website. I have relied on her to maintain my
artist’s site providing the fan base all current
information such as news and events. She defines the
word professional and her input and efforts have been
invaluable!"

"Bev is THE Main Mama of all Webmeisters!
Have mercy.
The best. The mistress of the massive Copeland
Telecommunication Network. You can't touch her.
She created it. Maintains it. Improves it.
And won't stop until we achieve total world domination.
She
makes it easy and never has to be told what to do.
She just does IT.
She gets total complete unequivocal
credit for everything regarding our site. Best of
all, she KNOWS and loves the music. We'd be lost
without her.
Hire Bev. She doesn't even mind
when you take credit for everything's she's done.
If I wasn't married, I'd fly to Texas and sweep that
woman off her feet."

"Beverly is one great web master!
She is so fast and professional that it's a real joy to
work with her. I can give her my new dates or things to
add to the site and she'll have them up that day,
usually within an hour! I give her my highest
recommendation."

"Beverly is a fantastic individual to
work with - she has creative ideas, is very aware of
deadlines and a pleasure to work with. Beverly receives
information from four different sources for our
organization and accurately posts it within minutes!
Although she has many other clients, she's so expedient
I feel as though we're the only one she works with! She
goes a hundred miles an hour! Very personalized service
- I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for
website services."

"I've worked with Beverly for over ten
years now on multiple websites, starting back when I
wasn't really sure what a website did. Beverly was
the first person to convince me we should have websites
for all of our artists at Blue Sky. She's always
been very knowledgeable, quick, reasonably priced, and
interested in always working to make it better and more
appealing and fun. Always open for input, and never
let's a problem become an excuse."

"Without Bev, I probably wouldn't have

"Our project was/is massive in nature.
Our history in music goes back at least 60 years,
involving many people, and it's continuing to grow with
our family. We have recordings of all kinds and
our involvement in music is ongoing.
When Beverly bravely took on the project she honed in on
our essence and what we both want and need, from and in,
a website. Professionally, we've loved having the
downloadable press kit and easy to navigate product page
with samples. We get a lot of feedback from people who
have enjoyed the intimacy of the photo album with sound
and videos. Most of all, we've enjoyed hearing
from people...all sorts of people...old friends and new.
Beverly Howell, Lone Star Artists, brings soul with her
experience to the internet and the business world.
She is a pure pleasure to continue working with as we
expand, clarify...Live!"

"The Pocono Blues Festival is all about 2
things -- focusing on real-deal Blues artists that need
and deserve wider recognition, and networking this event
to people that GET IT!
Beverly Howell played a major part in the
event's success during the early years (1995 to 1998)
when she hosted BluesChat LIVE. This excellent tool had
Blues Fans around the world asking questions on-line
with artists that just come off the stage (Luther
Allison, Smokey Wilson, Eddie C. Campbell, Bobby Rush,
etc.) This synergy helped make the event what it
is today.
I owe a major debt of gratitude to my
dear friend Bev for her past and current support of The
Pocono Blues Festival."

"Doing
business with Beverly Howell is an absolute pleasure.
Her years of experience in the music business make her a whole lot more than just a
remarkable web designer. She's innovative,
meticulous, unflappable, and always available. I can't
thank Tommy Shannon enough for introducing Beverly to
me."

"If you hate telephone menus as much as I do, then
you'll love Beverly's service. It's such a rare
pleasure in this and age to have a real person answer
the phone, and then for that person to know what she's
doing and speak English!
Besides
all that, the server seems to be just about bullet
proof... I don't remember a time when it has gone out of
service."
