About Fran (Mama Jo):

You may not have realized it, but this site and ALL its contents were created by one single person:

Fran Lafferty

The Do-Everything behind FranLaff.com :O>

If you see it on this site — and it isn’t just an ad from Google Adwords or something — then you can be SURE that it was made by little me.

Why No Phone Call?

Sorry, I don't do voice phone

  • Due to an old injury, voice phone is very uncomfortable and unreliable for me; I use it rarely and only briefly.
  • My ringer is always OFF unless I am expecting a pre-arranged call, so you would need to email or message me FIRST, using the blue contact bubble, bottom right corner of the site.
  • The fastest and most reliable way to contact me is through Messenger. 
  • VIDEO is even worse for me.  My apologies.

I am currently accepting part-time or short-term projects — as a Digital Color Consultant, as a Discovery Coach, and (very limitedly) as a general digital assistant.

Please keep in mind that communication will have to be in-person or written (text, email, Messenger).

 Click the green button above for details.

I am located in Columbus, Michigan - almost 50 miles north of Detroit and just a bit SW of the Blue Water Bridge to Canada

Most projects can be completed for only $25/hour and sometimes less!
