So you’re ready to finally get the beautiful website of your dreams designed, but are starting from ground zero.
Now as much as I would love to be a miracle designer who can magically create content, take pictures of you, AND know your design taste immediately… I’m just the girl that makes all those moving pieces work together like one big happy family!
There are a few things you need to have prepared before hand for that home base of a website to become a reality!
Inspiration
Now I totally wish I could read your mind and create exactly what you have pictured in your head (might have to make it my side hustle to invent that) but since I can’t, I welcome all the Pinterest inspiration you can give me! I provide lots of ideas as to what to include in your inspo in my welcome email so you don’t feel too stumped!
Content
Now content goes hand in hand with design to drive conversions! If you’re not the best writer, explore others within your field to see the types of sections they include on their website! Don’t think to much about it (ya don’t wanna sound like a robot), just write as if you were having a conversation with an ideal client!
High Quality Pictures
For the photographers this wont be an issue, but make sure you also have photos of you for the personal touch and your about page! But on the other hand, make sure the files are compressed using something like compressjpeg for the best speed!
Recommendations
Collect some love notes from past clients! This can be the deciding factor on whether you develop trust with a potential client or they pass you by!
CRM / Forms
Make sure you have a form that can be linked to or embedded on the website to prequalify your leads! A great example is using something like honeybook, dubsado, or 17hats!
Once all of that is ready, you can feel calm knowing that it will be left to your designer over here to make those dreams a reality!
