Beyond the Template
how this works
THE TAILORED EXPERIENCE
Brand Consultation
We'll meet to discuss your vision for your online presence — who you want to attract, what you value, how you want your website to feel, and ensure that a template customization is a great fit for your brand / what custom elements, if any, would be required to end up with a finished product that makes you excited to show up online.
Select A Template
We'll work together to choose the template that most closely represents the website your brand's been dreaming about. You'll have the choice between one of our templates or a TONIC template. Can't decide? No problem. We've curated a selection of our favorites, and have experience knowing how to customize any design to fit your style.
Customize + Tailor
After our kickoff call, we'll review the process so you know exactly what to expect. I'll provide you with a website collaboration page where you can share with me the images, content and anything else we'll need for success. Then, over a period of 2-4 weeks, we'll work closely to transform your template into something much, much more — a powerful, stunning tool for your brand and home staging or decorating business.
Launch in no Time!
One of the great things about starting with a template? The entire process is expedited. Our template customization projects typically proceed in a timeframe of 3-4 weeks from initiation. Launch the site you can't wait to show off and get back to doing what you love most. 👌🏼

A tangible baseline
Our templates are already designed to perfection, built with pages and pages of stunning, customizable sections. Because we can see what's available, we can easily edit, refine, and make changes.
Benefits of Starting with a Template vs. Custom Design
acCelerated timeline
Because we're tailoring a template rather than starting from scratch, the timeframe can be cut down significantly. While custom sites with my firm typically take between 4-6 months, a template customization can happen in as quickly as 4 weeks.
Proven framework
The templates I use are either designed by me or are my favorites in the industry because their strategy is second to none — they're designed to be beautiful with a proven sales strategy and built to convert.
A template customization might be right for you if:
You're a visual person who know what you love most when you see it.
You want an elevated, customizable site that you can control and edit yourself in the future.
You like having the framework of a template, but want it to feel tailored specifically to your brand.
You like the idea of starting from a template, but want someone to customize it for you.
You have a somewhat simple site in mind, not 15+ pages or e-commerce needs.
You want a premium, stunning website design at a fraction of the cost.

Starting with a template just means you start with a proven website framework, aesthetic and overall style. We'll take that framework and customize it with your content, media, and brand style so that it looks like a custom site built specifically for you. Our goal is to deliver a website that embodies your brand and blows your clients away.
Wait, so I'd be starting with a template? Does that mean I'm going to end up with a site that looks like everyone else's?

We'll pick your template together, based on your brand and overall style. I'll curate some templates that most closely represent the website your brand's been dreaming about. While our preference is for either our templates or Tonic templates, I'm open to other Showit template options. If you have your eye on another designer's template, let me know and we'll assess its suitability for your brand.
Okay, so how do I pick my template? Will you recommend a template for me?

Our process is highly collaborative and supportive. We totally understand that it can be overwhelming when it comes to selecting photos and writing copy for your site. That's why we provide you with a website framework that walks you through selecting photos and creating the written content for your new site. Not a copywriter? No problem. We can take your content outline and help you turn it into polished copy for each page on your site.
I'm overwhelmed by curating photos and writing content for my website. Can you help?

Absolutely. While we will provide you with resources and tools to confidently update your website on your own, you can absolutely hire our team to do the updates on your behalf. We offer half day (3 hours) or full day (6 hours) options for our website clients. Want something else? We can also discuss custom projects.
Once the website is done, can I hire you to update it?
