Working with a designer can resolve all of these issues — and save you from the tech headache.
I specialize in:

As an entrepreneur, you already have a million things on your plate.
The stress of building your home on the web doesn't have to be one of them.
I can help.
There's a level of expertise with a degree that you just can't get from watching YouTube videos. Amateur design mistakes — like trapped negative space, illegible typefaces, crowded menus — won't happen with me.
INSERT TEXT.
I served as a Brand Steward for 10,000+ employees and led creative, design, and communications projects at a Fortune 50 company for 12 years. I know what it takes to meet stringent deadlines and work as part of a virtual team.
I left my corporate design job to become a licensed massage therapist. I understand on a personal level what it's like to be an entrepreneur. Now, I combine the insights from both of these fields to serve my clients.
I can write riveting content, create a kickass website, set up your booking software, copyedit your HR handbook, and then talk your ear off about the latest season of Love is Blind. (I don't charge for that last one.)
MailChimp not playing nice with your website? Did your custom HTML break and now nothing's working? Whatever it is, I've probably seen it before and can fix it. I know the words to use to find out how to fix it.
Here's what you can expect.
It's easy to book your consultation, where you'll share your business vision and goals. We'll see if we're a good fit!
Go through my signature brand development process, send your materials to me, and I'll craft the design of your dreams.
Breathe easy knowing your design was created by a professional with an intentional strategy tailored for your ideal customers.
It depends on your business needs, how comfortable you are with tech in general, and how much time you want to spend maintaining your website.
For most of my clients — business owners whose time is at a premium — I recommend Squarespace, Showit, or Brizy because:
You've probably heard some well-intentioned people (who are not web developers) mention Wordpress. Although Wordpress is indeed the world's most popular website platform — and even though I'm a certified Wordpress Expert — I generally don't recommend it to my entrepreneur clients.
Why?
In short, Wordpress sites create unnecessary stress for small businesses — unless you're planning on hiring dedicated tech-support staff.
Since most entrepreneurs aren't resourced for that, I believe you simply don't need the hassle of Wordpress while you're busy running your business — especially when more stress-free platforms exist, like Squarespace, Showit, and Brizy.
(If you already have a Wordpress website but need tech support, I can help. Drop me a line!)
I do not charge any ongoing fees for the websites I create.
But remember, you'll still need to pay:
So that might look like paying NameCheap $15/year for your domain, and paying Squarespace $300/year for your website hosting. Those fees go directly to those companies, not to me. ;)
If you're interested in a Wordpress site, I encourage you to set aside a small monthly budget for ongoing tech support, which would involve regular maintenance, backups, and security checks to keep your site running like a well-oiled machine. I'm delighted to provide tech support for you, whether I built your original Wordpress site or not.
Absolutely. If you like certain aspects of your logo but don't need a completely new, created-from-scratch design, I can help refresh your logo so that you get the look you want. Contact me for a custom quote.
Yes! If you choose my "Done-For-You Website" package, you'll get a full SEO build-out, which covers not only the behind-the-scenes SEO settings but also optimizing your website content itself.
Beyond the scope of your website, however, there are additional actions you should take to boost your SEO, which we'll talk through in one of our video chats:
It depends on the project but ranges from one day to a few weeks. We'll talk about your timeframe and any deadlines that you're aiming for.
Although I work on projects on a "first-come, first-served" basis, if you need to meet a quickly approaching deadline, you have the option of paying a small fee to move your project to the front of my work queue.
