If we haven’t met yet…

Hi, I’m Susanne

I’m a web designer for small service-based businesses that want to make an impact and a real difference in the world. I primarily work with women-led businesses.

Your website is your strongest marketing tool. It is always ‘on’ representing your business. It’s working for you when you are sleeping or spending time with your family. Social media is great, but nothing can replace a website for marketing. It’s the home of your business!

I’m not someone who promises quick wins or unrealistic outcomes but….I’m here to help you make sure that your website is working hard for you.

Why me you might ask?

Over the 10 years I worked in university administration as Faculty Website Manager I had many training and development opportunities- from writing for the web courses to Vision Australia web accessibility training. I also worked closely with the IT team and learned best practice design from a technical angle.

When I started my first business in Property Styling I decided to build my website on Squarespace. Since then I’ve continued learning from the best in the Squarespace community like Kerstin Martin and Louise Henry, as well as attending in-person workshops e.g. with Melbourne’s multi-award-winning web design agency Chromatix. I continue to invest in myself and never stop learning and keeping up-to-date with design trends and Google SEO changes.

The website audit is perfect for you if…

  • You (or your non-web designer partner/neighbour/friend) created your website

  • It’s been 12+ months since you launched or updated your website.

  • You are a service provider.

This might not be the best option for you if…

  • You hired a professional web designer to build your website in the last 6 months.

  • Promoting specific offers is not the main purpose of your website.

  • You are mainly selling products.
