Imagine finally having a custom brand & Showit website uniquely designed to get your dream clients into your inbox.
You’ve explored countless website designs but none of them feel ‘just right.’
The thought of choosing page designs, fonts, colors, logos, and more sounds more overwhelming than Costco on a Sunday. (Haven’t been? Don’t do it.)
Your plate is full. Google font integrations between 10 pm and 1 am? No, thank you.
If this hits home, you’ll want to keep reading.
Here are the facts.

And what about a website?
You need results fast, and you need them to be professional and elevated.
You’ve started projects before, but they seem to fall flat midway.
Tech-savvy? Let’s just say you scored great on the English portion of your SAT.

We love a good-looking website as much as the next person, and you better believe that your website will be beautiful. But we’ll focus just as much on usability and user experience, too.
The Experience
Beautiful and Functional Websites
01
Whether you sell online courses, run an e-commerce shop, or need to collect leads on your website, we’ll get you all set up. We haven’t met an integration we can’t get up and running.
Technical Experience
02
You’re not building a beautiful website to stay in that word-of-mouth grind. We build all our websites with best web and SEO practices in mind. It’s even something we teach about at conferences throughout the year.
Search Engine Optimization
03
We provide each of our clients with video tutorials demonstrating how to use their website, and they’re always welcome to email us with questions. One of our favorite things about our clients is how many of them come back to us for future projects.
On-Going Support
04
Our clients get access to an exclusive community where they can utilize bonus material, get additional support, and collaborate with others.

The conversation always starts with our brand questionnaire where we get to know you and your business, its history, the services and products you offer, what your ideal client looks like, and who your competitors are.
The questionnaire not only familiarizes us with your business, but also serves as a focusing activity for you. Clients often tell us they have greater clarity and feel more focused after completing our branding questionnaire.
We use your responses to start creating a mood for your brand.
the Branding Questionnaire
view next step —
After you’ve completed your branding questionnaire, we’ll pull together a mood board to make sure we understand your ideal look and feel.
If you've been gathering inspiration images on Pinterest, this is where we'll put them to use (although we also like to find our own images too!)
the Mood Board
view next step —
If you’re happy with the mood board, we’ll start working on a few logo concepts. We generally send around three to five ideas for you to choose from.
These are rough and normally pretty far from the final design. We have to start somewhere right? This round lets you see where we could go and it helps us narrow down a single direction to focus on.
Logo Drafts
view next step —
Once you’ve chosen a direction, we’ll start working on a few revisions based on your feedback. Most likely we’ll go through two additional rounds of revisions before we finalize the layout and illustrations in the logo.
Once the layout is finalized, we’ll explore other font options and then finally color options.
Logo Refinements
view next step —
Finally, we’ll bring your entire brand together with a few submarks (if they work for your brand), a color palette, a font palette and alternate versions of your logo.
The branding design process typically takes 4-6 weeks.
Final Brand
view next step —
As we move on to the website, we’ll send over an outline to help you gather images and content in an organized manner. We know content gathering can be one of the toughest parts of putting together a website so we try to break it down into easy-to-digest parts.
We’ll also ask you to gather around 100 of your favorite images for us to use throughout your site and upload them to your gallery system, Dropbox or Google Drive.
Website Kickoff
view next step —
Once we have your content, we’ll start working on the homepage design of your site.
We'll input your brand elements + content into the homepage of your website and send it over for feedback.
Generally, once the homepage is done the rest of the site flows a bit faster, as the homepage determines the general look and feel of your design.
the Homepage
view next step —
Once you’re happy with the homepage design, we’ll ask for the content for your About page and we’ll go through a similar process as we did for the homepage with up to two revisions per each page. Generally, once the homepage is done the rest of the site flows a bit faster, as the homepage determines the general look and feel of your design.
Depending on how quickly you send us content, this part of the process typically takes about a month.
Website Pages
view next step —
Once the pages on your site are built, we’ll move your design to your account for final testing. The actual launch will look a little different depending on your platform, but we’ll make sure all of your blog posts are migrated from your current site and that your site is thoroughly tested before your official launch.
While you can always come back to us for updates, we'll send over videos to teach you how to update each section of your site. We’ll also add you to our private Facebook Community to make sure you stay up to date on all things web.

Travel inquiries have doubled in the last few weeks thanks to the website launch.
It’s something I’m so proud to send people as they seek help with their traveling dreams. The website is the first glance for people to see the professionalism by which I work and I think that’s made a huge difference in my business!
Though the templates are beautiful, the customer service has been through the roof from beginning to end.

FAQ
next question —
If you’re thinking about a rebrand in the next year, we highly recommend starting there before tackling a new website design. Generally people want to revisit their website after a rebrand.
I'm on the fence about branding. Should I do it?
next question —
This can vary pretty greatly depending on how quickly you make decisions and provide feedback, but on average, branding typically takes 4 to 6 weeks.
How long does branding typically take?
next question —
Semi-custom website projects (where we begin with one of our templates) usually last somewhere between 8 and 12 weeks.
Like branding, this process is dependent upon feedback and decisions.
How long does website design typically take?
next question —
Good question! It ultimately depends on what kind of functionality you need in a website. Showit is typically our platform of choice because of the design flexibility and ease of editing (for you!) Ecommerce, however, is generally a better fit for e-commerce businesses and membership sites.
Check out this article—Showit vs. WordPress/Elementor—for a more in-depth comparison.
Should I do a Showit site or an Elementor site?
next question —
We build all of our websites with search engines in mind. We even teach on search engine optimization (SEO) at various conferences throughout the year.
SEO is not something that’s done once. You’ll need to continue optimizing your website after it’s built and as you develop content. This includes optimizing content as it’s created and building quality backlinks to your website.
All semi-custom and custom website design clients get access to either our Showit or Elementor SEO Course, which provides video tutorials on optimizing your website.
Will my website be optimized for Search Engines?
next question —
We typically break projects into four payments, but we can be flexible. We do, however, require a 25% payment to start the project, and the final payment to be made prior to delivering final services.
How do your payment plans work?
next question —
We’ll provide guidance on copy throughout your project, but we’re always happy to recommend copywriters if you’re interested in hiring one. Just let us know, and we’ll send over a few names that we think might be a good fit for your project.
Can you recommend a copywriter?
It’s time for a website + brand customized for you and works with you to bring dream clients to your inbox.
TOGETHER?
are you ready to work
Yes, you could put it off another year, but in an ever changing industry, can you afford to lose 12 months of clients, rapport, and competitive lead?
Or sure, you could get a website template and do the customizations yourself. We're big believers in that (thus why we sell templates!)
But we also know that sometimes, you just need a little more guidance.
Will you actually put in the work to make your site and brand incredible? Will you fine-tune the design, optimize the backend, and make each page user-friendly?
