Website Planning Workshops

Why do we need a website plan?

Many website designers do one intro call, send a quote, and get going. The downside? It only works for incredibly straightforward projects.

I jumped into a dozen website builds without spending the time outlining a clear plan, and we always ended up overwhelmed, confused, or redoing things we’d already done, pushing up the budget and pushing out the timeline.

Plus hiring a website designer is a big commitment. Talk to a website designer once, then agree to pay them several thousand dollars to build you a website… it’s a big leap of faith! A website planning workshop irons out all of these issues.

The Website Planning Workshop Process

My Website Planning Workshop gets to the heart of what you need and delivers a website plan that you can work with me on or take to work on on your own if we don’t end up feeling like a good fit. This process usually takes 4-6 weeks from start to finish.

I customize the workshop process to each client, but workshops typically include an intro questionnaire, a workshop call, and a recorded video or handoff call walking you through the website roadmap. In this workshop we often discuss:

Your existing plan/dreams and design inspiration for the website

Your ideal client’s FAQs and what makes you the right fit for them

What you already have and what you’ll need: brand guidelines, copywriting, image sourcing

What website platform will work best and what functionalities your site needs

How people get to your website and what they’ll do when they get there

What pages you’ll need & how your site will be structured

Workshop Pricing

Website planning workshops cost $650.

Payment is due up front or can be paid in two installments. As soon as your first payment is received, you’ll receive a first questionnaire to fill out and a calendar link to book our workshop call.

Sometimes we find in this workshop process that we need to do more research before we can jump into a website build project. If this is the case, we’ll change course as needed.
