Stacy Kessler, Small Business Strategist hasn't added a story.
What is it in a nutshell?
Join me and my Squarespace designer for a day as we guide you in the creation of your own killer website. We’ll teach you the tech, guide you in your site organization, design, and copy, and provide feedback and troubleshooting as you actually get it done.
Why you might need this
If you don’t have a completed website you’re proud of and able to quickly update by yourself, you’re missing a huge opportunity to grow awareness, generate credibility, warm up leads, and sell your products or services. Hiring someone to create your website costs many thousands of dollars and you’re often left with something that’s difficult, expensive, or time consuming to update. Trying to do it yourself can be incredibly difficult with the steep learning curve.
How you might be feeling
You might be hesitant to promote your business because you don’t have a website to send people for more info. Maybe you have one but feel embarrassed about it or struggle to keep it updated. If you’re trying to create or update a website on your own you’re probably feeling overwhelmed and frustrated. You might be avoiding it completely and it’s probably keeping you stuck from taking other action to grow your business.
How this can help
Let’s hit the easy button as I guide you in creating a beautiful and functional website you can update as often as you need to. Squarespace is my platform of choice because it makes the design and tech easy without prior experience - but like any tool, there’s a learning curve. I’m going to help you skip through that by teaching you as you build a website in real time with me. You’ll walk away with oodles.
How you’ll feel after
You’ll feel a huge sense of relief and satisfaction having a website that you created and you’ll feel confident to make changes when you desire. Best of all, you’ll be excited to share your website and your business with the world!
My approach to helping you
Your website should feel like it was custom made for you and your business, so while you’re getting onboarded to Squarespace, you’ll also be learning how to make your website all your own—from your messaging to your graphics.
Who this is for
This is for anyone who wants to build a beautiful, functional website you can update all on your own as you need to. If you already have a Squarespace website (version 7.0 or 7.1) but haven’t finished it or are clueless how to do certain things, this day will help you become a Squarespace pro and work through anything that’s been getting you stuck.
Who this is not for
If you need your website to function in a very complex way with all sorts of customized technical capabilities, then Squarespace probably isn’t for you. I’d instead recommend Wordpress which we won’t be covering in this workshop.
Format
Prior to the workshop you’ll be receiving optional pre-work to begin preparing your messaging and images so the actual building of your website will be faster.
The workshop day will last 6 hours with a lunch break. We’ll be teaching you Squarespace by building a demo site and sharing our screen that you can follow along with to build yours in real time. Throughout the day you’ll be learning all our best website tips and tricks and we’ll be there to answer questions, provide feedback, and troubleshoot with you. You’ll receive a recording so you can get a refresher whenever you need.
If you sign up for the bonus, you’ll also get the opportunity to send me your website within a month of the workshop and I’ll send you back a video with my personal feedback and suggestions!
