I'll Make Your Website

I design websites.

I’ll make your website.

for example:

megmichaelson.com

susiesteiner.me

I make websites for people who own their own businesses and need help branding themselves online. I’ve thought about building effective brands for many years as an advertising copywriter and I’ve developed a keen eye for messaging opportunities. I’m only happy when I hit the sweet spot between smart and beautiful.

Squarespace web design and copywriting. More often than not, my photography, copywriting, audio editing, and writing skills are also useful to clients who need a website designed for them. I can provide creative assets for your site wherever they're needed.

New Project

I'm thrilled to be considered for your next project.

My primary goal is to create a website that accomplishes your strategic goals and communicates what makes you or your brand unique.

Do you have an ideal date for website launch? Are there outside considerations that might affect the timeline (e.g. product launches, studio openings)?

Part 2 – Strategic Goals

WHAT DO YOU REALLY WANT?

Please describe the range of work you do, the products you sell, the services you offer, or the content you create.

Who is your ideal website visitor?

Consumers or other businesses? Fashion-forward or more conservative? High-end or strictly budgeted? Local to you or far-flung? Young or old?

When your ideal visitor arrives, what frame of mind are they in?

Are they seeking information? Are they ready to purchase something?

If your ideal visitor stopped by your website, what would you want them to do before they left?

Would you want them to contact you? Book an appointment? Make a purchase? Subscribe to your newsletter? Read a blog post?

Which social media channels (if any) do you think your ideal visitor spends time on? Are you already interacting with them in a marketing capacity?

Do you ever write about your industry? Are you an expert in your field?

Part 3 – Design

HOW DO YOU WANT TO BE SEEN?

Give me the lay of the land. Tell me about your industry and how you fit into it.

Are you a newcomer or are you well-established? Is your business local, regional, or national? Artisinal or mass market?

What brands and/or individuals do you consider competition?

What brands and/or individuals would you consider to be design inspiration?

What makes you or your business unique/appealing/competitive?

Part 4 – Nuts and Bolts

LET'S TALK NITTY GRITTY

Do you already have an existing website or domain?

Will anyone else, such as partners or employees, need administrative access to the website?

Will you provide assets for your website?

Assets include all copy (bios, headlines, products, about pages, etc.), images, a logo and/or other branding materials. With the exception of logo design, you can hire me to work on these assets for you.

I will provide my website's assets.

I would like to hire you to provide them for me.
