Exploring the Power of Website Design and Templates

A behind-the-scenes look at the tools and strategies my team used for our beautiful website refresh.

When you're building your online business, can you really only rely on social media to scale? The quick answer – NO! While social media is excellent for outreach, you just aren't going to get the same stability, control, and conversion rates as a website. 

But, I know what you're thinking: Amy, how do I even start to build an entire website?! I totally understand how nerve-racking it can be when you’re launching your first website. Mine only had a gray header, my name in black with a shadow, and super cheesy graphics. My friend, we all have to start somewhere! But lucky for you, creating a functional and beautiful website now is actually a whole lot easier and faster than you might think. 

Today, I share the practical tools, tips, and strategies my team used in our recent website remodel. That's right – you're getting a behind-the-scenes look at how we refreshed our website and a step-by-step walkthrough of the entire redesign process.

Plus, I talk about my favorite platform for website building and how to make your website incredibly engaging and high-converting.
