You Are Good at What You Do.
Your Website Should Make That Obvious.
This is one of the most underappreciated advantages of Showit.
Showit is a drag-and-drop platform editor that gives you complete control over how your site looks and feels. You are not locked into a rigid template structure that forces your brand into someone else's layout. Every element is moveable, resizable, and fully customizable so your website looks exactly like your business, not like a generic version of it.
Showit integrates with every major booking and scheduling platform including Acuity, Calendly, HoneyBook, Dubsado, and more. Embed your contact forms, intake questionnaires, photography galleries like Pixieset and CloudSpot, and client portals connect directly to your site. Email marketing tools like Flodesk and Mailchimp plug in seamlessly. If you offer courses or memberships, Kajabi and Teachable integrate too.

You have built your business on word of mouth, hard work, and the results you deliver for your clients. But at some point, people stop trusting word of mouth alone. They Google you. They check your website. And what they find either confirms you are the right choice or sends them away, looking elsewhere.
If your website does not clearly communicate what you do, who you help, and why you are the right person for the job, you are leaving money on the table every single day.
Showit gives you unlimited design freedom and works with the tools you already use.

Current Website Issues
You are getting traffic but not converting it because there is nothing on your site that builds enough trust to make a stranger feel confident reaching out.
Potential clients are comparing you to competitors who have more polished websites and choosing them even though your work is just as good or better.
Your contact or booking process is clunky, unclear, or buried, which creates an issue right at the moment someone is ready to say yes.
You show up in searches occasionally, but your page structure and SEO basics are not set up in a way that brings in consistent local or niche traffic.
Solutions Delivered
Trust-building elements included throughout your site, including testimonials, process sections, credentials, and results that do the selling for you before you ever speak to a lead.
Strategic calls to action (CTA) are placed throughout every page so visitors always have a clear, obvious next step, no matter where they are on your website.
A streamlined contact or booking flow that makes reaching out feel easy, professional, and worth doing right now rather than something to think about later.
An SEO-ready page structure with proper titles, headings, and local optimization so the right clients can find you when they are actively searching for what you offer.
Service-based businesses span every industry imaginable. What they all have in common is that their website needs to do one thing above everything else: make a stranger trust them enough to reach out.

Janelle was wonderful to work with on the redesign of the JSA Architects website. She was incredibly patient and understanding when our timeline required us to pause the project for several weeks. When we resumed, she quickly streamlined the process and made everything feel seamless. Her expertise, organization, and collaborative approach made the entire experience smooth and successful.

Questions
& Answers
Top 3 most asked
I have been in business for years but my website looks like I just started. Can you fix that?
Yes, your website should reflect where your business is today not where it was when you first launched or 2 years ago. A refresh or rebuild positions you at the level you are actually operating at which changes how potential clients perceive you before they ever reach out. Most of my clients notice a shift in the quality and number of inquiries after launching a professionally designed website.
Can my website integrate with my booking, course or CRM system?
Yes. Showit integrates with every major booking and client management platform used by service businesses, including HoneyBook, Dubsado, Calendly, Pixieset, Thrive Cart, and more. Easily embed or connect directly to your website to make it easy for interested visitors to book and contact you.
I have testimonials and case studies but no idea where to put them. Can you help with that?
Absolutely. Social proof is one of the best strategic decisions to add in a service business website and it is something I think about intentionally during the design process. Testimonials placed in the right sections at the right moments in the visitor journey do significantly more work than testimonials dumped on a single page that visitors may never find. I will help you identify your strongest social proof and position it where it has the most impact.
Most service-based businesses benefit from a new semi-custom Showit website or a template customization that includes a homepage, services page, about page, contact page, and a booking integration such as payment processing, booking calendar, and email marketing.
If you already have a Showit site and just need a refresh or a new page added, a VIP Design Intensive may be the perfect fit.
