What is your expertise? What do you do?
I'm a financial coach that helps young ambitious women take charge of their finances to live a life of financial freedom and prosperity. Money should be simple and I teach my clients how to implement a financial plan that suits their personality and can (almost) run on auto-pilot, leaving them free to live their lives free from money-stress!
Why did you decide it was time to change your website?
I previously had a Wordpress website and spend soooo much time tinkering to make it work the way I wanted too. Moving to Squarespace was a great decision because it's simple and it just works! But even then I was still spending too much time making it look pretty so I decided to go for a pre-made template to make it look professional without spending hours on it myself.
Why did you choose this template from our shop? How do you identify with the design?
The Lora template immediately stood out to me, because it is very different from most of the templates I came across. I love the color-blocking that is going on and the modern, ambitious and confident (even slightly 'edgy') feel that is has going on. This is a great match with how I want my clients to feel about their finances, so it's just a great fit! The fact that my main brand color is yellow and most other templates just don't look good with that finally pushed me over the edge. I have to say, I'm absolutely in love with it and I'm just baffled by how good my website looks now! Thank you!
How did you find the whole process of website renovation with the Squarespace template?
The process went very smoothly due to all the help from Olga! I was very impressed by the amazing level of personal support throughout the whole process. When it turned out I had made a mistake with my website transfer she kindly helped me sort it out with Squarespace and really went above and beyond to make sure it was sorted out. I didn't order a custom service, but the support I received made me feel like I did. Thank you!
What's the next big step in your business? What are you launching next?
My next big step is to launch my new coaching program in December/January. Now that my re-branding and website re-design are done, I have a solid and professional foundation to attract new clients so I can help them achieve financial freedom!
