In 90 days look forward to people connecting with you on your all-new website
Is your website broken?
Don’t have a website?
Or was it built by the teenage computer wiz-kid next door?
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to 90 days from now rest assured that every time someone visits your website, they are going to know who you are and what you do with crystal clarity and the next steps to take to become your best customer!
We’ll work with you on content and design to build a website that will pay for itself by growing your business and tribe and we’ll be there to support you for the long haul.
Building a website involves bringing together a wealth of resources to create something entirely new that will serve you well now and for a long time to come.
There are 5 distinct stages in the process:
Discovery
We explore exactly what the website must accomplish to meet your needs and effectively connect with your ideal customers.
This is the time for dreaming, blue-skying and looking at all the possibilities to find just what will work the best for your situation.
At the end of the Discovery session, we’ll have a detailed plan for your new website and an estimate of investment needed.
Concept
With the plan from the Discovery session in hand, we develop a detailed concept for the website to match your organizational branding.
This includes detailed site map, rough mockups of key pages to determine what content (text, images, video, etc.) will be needed.
We’ll work with you to outline content and create concepts of looks and functionality on the new website.
Design
With the website concept and content outline in hand, we write copy (text) for the website, determine visual direction, select photos, build a color palette and typography, as well as create graphics.
From an initial style sheet, you’ll see the design take shape, starting with one representative page to be followed by other pages until you can see what the new website will look like and how it will function.
Development
If we were building a car, the previous stages would be about the outside and interior that anyone riding in the car will come in contact with. This stage is where we dive under the hood and deal with the engine, frame and suspension: the mechanics.
We’ll turn the designs into a functioning website and add in lots of goodness that you probably don’t think much about, but that will keep your website functioning for the long haul.
At the end of this stage, we’ll have a new, shiny website for you, ready to hit the road.
Launch
So far, the new website exists on a development server, away from the eyes of the world.
Launch is when the new website is moved to the permanent server and is available to the world.
To make sure everything works just as intended, we use a multi-step pre-launch test and checklist. Then the site is launched and we run a post-launch checklist to ensure everything is et up properly, your website is secure and will be regularly backed up.
Plus, there’s training to ensure you know how to use all the features of your new website.
Additionally, we’ll do an after-launch checkin with you 30-45 days after launch to make sure all is running as it should.
All to ensure the best results from your new website.
