Note: Attendees must attend both sessions: June 9 & 16.
Every day your website sits nonexistent, unfinished or unclear someone googles what you offer and hands their money to a competitor. Most business owners know they need a website but the planning feels overwhelming, the platforms feel foreign, and it keeps sliding to the bottom of the list. This two-part series is built to close that gap and help you design a website that converts.
This series is for you if:
- You’ve been “working on your website” for months and it’s still not done
- You paid someone to build it and it’s not pulling it’s weight
- You know your business is better than what your site shows
Session 1: Clarify & Plan with AI (June 9)
- What your site needs to say and who it needs to say it to
- How to build a sitemap and why it matters
- Writing copy that speaks directly to your ideal customer
- Hands-on Work: Build your sitemap, research and review website examples, and draft your text.
Session 2: Build & Move Forward (June 16)
- Platform orientation: navigating Squarespace or Shopify confidently
- Translate your sitemap into a real site structure
- Design basics any non-designer can apply
- Build your homepage one section at a time, in real time
- Hands-on Work: Get your homepage and one internal page started inside Squarespace or Shopify, plus a clear next steps plan.
