Do you have a website that isn’t converting? In other words, people are clicking on your site but aren’t booking the call, purchasing the product, or joining the program? Websites are complex machines that require strategy, clarity, and purpose – if it’s confusing, people bounce.

If you want to turn your website into a functioning goldmine that turns visitors into paying customers, then today’s episode with branding and website specialist Ari Krzyzek is for you!

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The times when having a website is not the best idea
• The formula for how to lay out your homepage
• The website is not for you, it’s for your target audience
• The importance of mapping out your website and user journey
• Some reasons why your website may not be converting
• Building and managing it yourself OR hiring a professional?
• Think beyond just the people who buy from you
• Analytics is how you’ll know if your website is serving its purpose
• How to select the right platform for your business

Co-founder and chief creative officer of Chykalophia (read: see-ka-lo-fia), Ari Krzyzek helps FemTech, DTC, and women-led brands transform their website into a platform that unlocks business opportunities. She serves as a branding, UX consultant, and professional peer in support of fellow female entrepreneurs through the #1 ranked private business incubator in the world. She’s the co-host of Halo Femtech Podcast, a podcast that honors disruptive innovators and change-makers advancing women’s health.

NOTEWORTHY QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE

“Oftentimes, people don’t realize that whatever you put in [your social media account], that’s no longer your content and that’s no longer your data. That’s whoever or whichever social media company’s data. They can shut you down anytime, right? And you don’t have any control over it.”

“Your website can be as fancy as you want, have animation here and there, flashing things all around. But if it’s not really converting, it’s honestly useless, right? Sure, you’re gonna have a pretty website, but it’s not going to pay the bills.”

“I often talk about building websites like building a home. And to put walls up and a roof on you first need a blueprint.”

“So, [it’s about] thinking beyond people who just buy from you, right? And this is where you can create your website as a goldmine, because eventually, these are the people who will advocate for your brand, who will then tell the world how amazing your product or your services are and refer them to you.”
