Just visit the link below and let me know your opinion? (Honesty is the best policy).

If you were me, what would you do to market yourself to the fullest potential? Ideas please?

Hi

I would lose the discount as it is one of the first things that you see and suggests desperation.

It needs compartmentalising / subdividing... that one page is an epic. State the very basics on the home page and then break each part of the business into separate areas with a 'all in one solution' page.

I agree about the discount thing, too many words on the front page - think of it as your door or porch, it should be inviting but not daunting. Once you get past the front page each of the sections should have a page of its own, it makes it easier to digest.
Its also a bit confusing where you say that there is a free CD for the person that pays for the booking, isn't everyone supposed to pay? perhaps you should reword it to say that its a free CD for anyone that pays for the booking online, or within 7 days or something, it seems like you are giving a lot away (as has been said before it looks a bit desperate)
Other than that it looks OK, good luck with it
