Let's Build a Website

Click the image to see a site I put together (with my own photography and love).

I am excited that you are considering me for your project!

If you dig my holistic approach to content marketing (a.k.a. narrative marketing), perhaps our efforts will be a great fit. My goal is to create a site for you that will help you with your goals, communicate your message, artfully showcase your uniqueness and benefit those who visit.

Before we get started, let's cull through the size, scope and intention of your website, as well as think through exactly what you'd like to create. In essence, the form will help your project progress smoothly.

When would you like to launch?

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

Part II: Your Goals

What is it that you want, really?

Please tell us about the range of work you do:

... the products you sell, the services you offer, the content you create and etc.

Your ideal visitor

Describe the ideal visitor to your website. Consumers or other businesses? Fashion-forward or more conservative? High-end or budget? Local or far-flung? Young or old? Elvis or The Beatles?

Visitor mindset

When your ideal visitor arrives, what frame of mind are they in? Seeking information? Ready to purchase?

Visitor itinerary

If your ideal visitor visited your website, what would you want them to do before they left? Contact you? Book an appointment? Make a purchase? Subscribe to your newsletter?

Building community

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

Blogging

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

Part III: Design

How do you want to be seen?

Give us the lay of the land.

Tell us about your industry and how you fit into it. Newcomer or established? Local, regional, or national? Artisanal 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/special/different?

Part IV: Nuts and Bolts

Let's talk brass tacks.

Do you already have an existing website or domain?

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

Do you already have existing content?

Will you be able to provide assets for your website? This would include: all copy (bios, headlines, products, about pages, and etc.), images, and a logo or other branding. If not, don't despair! I'd be happy to help you with that too.

Investment

How much would you like to invest in your content marketing efforts? You can give an overall amount or a certain figure per week or month — however it works best for you and your budget.

Part V: Over to You
