How we work together in partnership
-
Before the Day:
You put together all of the assets you already have: headshots, pictures, bio, copy, links to social media, resume, logo, etc.
Make a deposit and set a date with Shelby.
Share all of the assets with Shelby before the date of your design. (preferably in a google drive - all in one place).
(I highly suggest this, but it is optional) Do your research - find websites, colors, fonts, layouts that you like and that Shelby can use as inspiration. Come up with a list of components that are important to you + be ready to share them with Shelby.
On the Day:
You meet with Shelby. We will discuss the assets you already have, the assets you need, your goals and design preferences. We will set up your squarespace account and discuss your domain name needs (if you don't already have one). This meeting can take anywhere from 1 hour to an hour and a half depending on what assets you already have. We will agree on your projects scope of work.
Shelby will get to work setting up your squarespace site, logo design, brand kit, and web design.
Meet and discuss design decisions, layouts, brand kit, logo, and site, and discuss with Shelby/give notes + redirections as needed.
You will have a final meeting with Shelby + she will deliver the final assets that we discussed. You will have a logo, brand kit, and website ready to be shared— more than this, you will be ready to level up your business and your life.

I am happy to work with you writing your copy, or to schedule a planning session with you before the date to give you direction and make sure we are able to fully utilize the time on the design.

I am happy to continue to work with you on your design needs. We can discuss if you'd like to work with me at my hourly rate, on retainer, or as a separate package. You can check out my packages and a la carte options here.

I do offer teaching sessions. I am happy to work with you to teach you how to update your site yourself.
I recommend scheduling teaching close to the design date to keep your momentum going!

FAQs:
Can You Share Some Examples of Your Work?
Of course. Here are a few of my favorites: Product CoPilot, Sassy Aunties, Alexandra, Cosimo Wines, Contemporary Club, Cumarsaid Group, Oracle Hospitality Consultants, and Blue Collar Artists. For these companies I curated logos, color stories, brand kits, and website design. I also directed the design of The Usual Series and Naptown Media.
Why is a Great Website Important?
Your website is how you tell your customers exactly who you are and what you have to offer.
A great website will intuitively guide your customer experience and interactions and save you countless hours on the phone explaining the same thing over and over again.
You can decide on your goals and track your success all in one place.
You will have access 24/7 and be able to take care of business your way.
Why Should We Use Shelby and Hold My Crown?
I use a comprehensive approach to web design. The site is designed with you and your customers experience in mind. This ensures an intuitive and informative website experience that tells them the story you want them to know.
Why Do You Use Squarespace?
Most importantly: I will build the website on Squarespace. Why is this important? Most people design a beautiful website then leave it there and let it sit. I believe that the business owners and managers need access to important features to stay in tune with their business and their customers. The best way to utilize a website is to have it work with you and treat it as a communication system between you and your customers. This is why I work with you to teach you how to navigate and manage marketing, analytics, selling, and even scheduling tools to put the power and control in your hands.
What if I Don’t Have Photos or Videos?
Lucky for you, I am also an experienced film producer. Any good marketer knows the power of video on a site. It will make it stickier, enhance the customer experience, and ultimately, generate sales. We can discuss the different packages I offer -if you are looking for something simple, I’ll be able to find stock photos and videos to enhance your site. If you want a more custom approach, we can discuss including filming and photography to ensure that your team, products, and services are at the center of the site and your brand shines. (You can check out my work both on this website Hold My Crown, and at Naptown Media’s website.)
What’s the Process Look Like?
I will present a guide of the components we need for the website. I will provide the site navigation, the copy, the brand kit, and the overall design strategy to give your customers the best experience.
Once we agree on the website components, I will l create a crisp, clean, easy to navigate website on Squarespace for both desktop and mobile. The design will be intuitive for the customer to follow. This experience will gently guide them to understand who you are as a company, how you do business, and most importantly, what you have to offer them.
Once we agree on a design, we examine the photo and video elements necessary to make your products and your team shine. We will produce videos and photos with a consistent look that match your brand.
Once the photos and videos are produced and incorporated into your site, I will spend a session with your team teaching you how to navigate and manage all of the tools that Squarespace has to offer. While I am always just a call away, I see this as the most important part of the process. It will give you powerful tools to help drive your business. This is how you tell your customers exactly who you are and what you have to offer. You can decide on your goals and track your success all in one place. You will have access 24/7 and be able to take care of business your way.
