Frequently Asked Questions
While there’s no right answer, the advice I give my clients is to consider what makes the most sense for where they’re currently at in their business. If you’re in the beginning stages and are still working through the details of what you want to do and who for, a website template could be the way to go. But once you have a clear understanding of your audience and your offers, and want a website that’s made specifically for your business, then it’s time to invest in custom design. It's such an amazing return on investment!
While templates are a great starting point, professional design offers a strategic approach that's tailored to your specific business goals. Think of it this way: a template is like buying a house as-is, while professional design is like having an architect create a space that perfectly fits your needs. My clients consistently tell me that investing in professional design helped them attract better clients, raise their prices confidently, and create a brand presence they're truly proud of.

While I can certainly create a beautiful website with your existing brand, I always recommend following the strategic sequence of brand design, website copy, then website design for the best results. Especially if you have no existing brand identity or have an outdated one that may impact your new website vision! Starting with brand design gives me the essential building blocks (your visual identity, brand personality, and core messaging) that make your website truly shine.
This foundation ensures every design choice on your website feels purposeful and aligned with your brand's vision. Once your brand is solid, I can also craft compelling website copy that tells your story and connects with your audience. Then, I bring it all together with a website design that perfectly showcases both your visual brand and strategic messaging. This thoughtful sequence helps avoid the common pitfall of retrofitting your brand to match your website later on, which often leads to disconnected visuals or messaging!
- Booking: Once you inquire, you'll hop on a discovery call with me to chat about your specific needs and goals. From there, I'll craft a custom proposal for you. Once you've confirmed the proposal, signed the agreement and submitted the first payment, you'll be officially booked into my calendar!
- Preparation: You'll fill out a detailed questionnaire so I can really understand your vision. If we're working on a website project, you'll also need to provide all of your content. As a designer, I focus on creating the structure, layout, and functionality of your site, but I rely on you to provide the actual content for me to use. You'll need to provide your branding assets (if you're not booking brand design), your website copy (the text that explains your services, about section, etc.), and photos/videos.
- Design Phase: For brand projects, we start with a creative direction and moodboard to set the vibe, then move into logo and full brand identity design. For website projects, I bring your brand to life with a custom design that's strategic and beautiful.
- Collaboration: This is where the collaboration really happens! Once the initial design is complete, you'll have a chance to share your feedback and request revisions during a few rounds. We work together to fine-tune everything until it feels just right.
- Testing & Final Launch: I handle all the final testing and tech setup to make sure everything runs smoothly, then it's time to launch.
You share your vision and content, and I transform it into reality. Simple as that!
Absolutely! A custom brand and website is an investment that gives you the opportunity to raise your rates and quickly make back what you put in. To make it more manageable, I offer flexible payment plans which you can select your preference when booking your package.
- A wedding planner hit her quarterly goals within months of launching her custom website
- A dog breeder consistently fills their waitlists and has grown into a thriving online business
- A vacation rental fully booked their next year's calendar within months of launch
- A photographer successfully transitioned to full-time business ownership and had her most successful year financially post-launch
- An esthetician grew her business through organic Google searches, enabling her to expand services and build a larger team
- A dietitian secured valuable partnerships immediately after launch & that is was specifically due to her stunning online presence
While these results are exciting, they came from a combination of great design and my clients' dedication to their businesses. Think of it as a return on investment (ROI) – when you invest in professional design, you're setting yourself up to earn back that investment and more through: the ability to charge premium prices, attracting higher-quality clients, saving time with a website that works for you, building trust faster with potential clients, and standing out against competitors. Think about your ideal pricing, how many higher-paying clients will you need to book before you cover this investment?
I do also offer Shopify website design services upon request for e-commerce stores.
I've streamlined every step of the process to make it stress-free for you – whether you're a tech novice or busy entrepreneur, I'll guide you through the journey while handling all the complex details. From flexible payment options to ongoing support after launch, I'm committed to being your long-term design partner, helping your brand grow and evolve alongside your business.
But SEO results aren't overnight, especially for brand new websites. What gets built takes time to rank, and you also need to put in the work on your end, like driving traffic to your site so Google sees you as reliable and trustworthy. That said, the majority of my clients have seen amazing results and landed on the first page of Google within a year of launching, thanks to the combination of a solid website foundation and their hard work! If you're looking for a more comprehensive SEO strategy with things like ongoing management, backlinks and additional services, I have some amazing SEO experts I can connect you with!
I work hard to ensure that you end up with design that you’re in love with and an online presence that gets you the results you’re after. Whether that’s getting found more easily on Google, attracting higher-paying clients, or making enough money to jet off on more vacations.
