Branding and Website Design Isn't Easy
Many practitioners spend a lot of time, energy, and sometimes money trying to cobble together a website and professional brand as they're just starting out.
This isn't usually the best choice.
You do want to have a brand, but it's also important to understand that your practice will evolve in unexpected ways over the first few years.
If you spend a lot of money creating a brand and website before you've seen many clients, you'll likely need to change it all later.
You want to be spending your time finding clients, getting the foundations of your practice set up, and actually working with clients, rather than stressing over building the perfect website yourself.
In this episode, brand designer Lindsey Freeman (no relation!) and therapist Julie Goldberg share more about the website templates and other resources they've created specifically for service providers, as well as tips on branding and getting started with your practice.
I highly recommend starting from a template if you're experiencing website anxiety or if you're finding that creating your website is holding up your practice.
It's affordable, it's easy (or at least easier!), and you'll be able to move on to the many other things that need to happen to get your doors open.
