Things To Prepare Before You Meet With A Web Designer
Joelle Riding • November 1, 2023
So you're ready to create or upgrade your website. What should you have ready before you start?
Creating or upgrading a website is an exciting endeavor, but before you dive in, it's essential to ensure you have everything in place to make the process smooth and successful. In this guide, we'll walk you through the key elements you should have ready before meeting with a web designer and beginning the web design process!
1. Domain:
Your domain is the digital address of your website, such as www.yourname.com. If you haven't secured one yet, we recommend buying a domain through trusted providers like Google or GoDaddy. To ensure you get your preferred domain, search for it using your business name. In case another business has already claimed it, you might need to brainstorm creative alternatives.
2. Hosting and Credentials:
If you already own a domain, it's crucial to know where it's hosted and have your login credentials ready. Common hosting providers include Google, GoDaddy, Bluehost, Squarespace, or 1&1. Having these credentials on hand allows us to verify the domain's availability and prevent the need for time-consuming domain transfers.
3. Photos:
The visual appeal of your website often hinges on the photos you use. You have two options: personal photos or stock photography. If you don't have professional photos of yourself, consider investing in a photoshoot to obtain 12-15 high-quality images for your website. Remember, while we can craft a stunning website, the right photos can make all the difference!
4. Logo:
A compelling logo is an integral part of your brand identity. If you're on a budget, explore logo templates on platforms like Canva. However, if you're ready to invest in a unique logo, reach out to our branding specialist Lainey, who excels in branding and logo creation. Ensure you have the necessary logo files readily available, including PNG transparent versions, for use on your website and marketing materials.
5. Brand Colors:
Having 1-2 primary brand colors is essential for brand consistency. If you haven't chosen your brand colors, we can help you find the right ones or you can explore Coolors for inspiration. Be sure to identify the HEX codes associated with your colors for easy implementation. For additional guidance on brand colors, check out our blog on color theory.
6. Fonts:
Fonts are a crucial aspect of your branding and the first impression many visitors have of your business. Select fonts that resonate with your brand identity. We recommend having a font hierarchy in place, including fonts for headings, subheadings, and body text. Check out our blog for guidance on creating your font hierarchy.
7. List of Services:
Your list of services and their descriptions are foundational elements of your website. While website copy can be generated relatively quickly, your services set you apart. Invest time in defining your services, their descriptions, pricing, and any essential information that visitors should know about working with you.
In summary, preparing these key elements beforehand can significantly streamline our web design process and ensure a successful outcome! Whether you're just starting or looking to enhance your online presence, we'd love to work with you.
Kennedey came to us wanting a site she could love and easily manage. We started with a one-page brand kit. It ensures fonts and colors are used consistently across her website and social media. From our kickoff call to the launch, we designed and built her site in just two months.
When we started working with CC Skin Studio, Cecia’s Shopify site was ready for a major upgrade. She wanted a little help with her overall website. But, her big goal was to start planning eCommerce growth. She was becoming a top esthetician in her area. But, her current website didn’t match her expertise.
We knew it was time to reflect her status as a top esthetician. Our main goal was to add e-commerce features. We wanted to drive both virtual and in-person bookings. We also wanted to highlight her insane acne transformations and glowing reviews. We also had a goal of incorporating SEO into the entire site to get more clients from Arizona.
We designed a clean, aesthetic layout that really showcases CJ’s services and products, making sure her site is super easy to navigate so her clients can effortlessly find what they need. To highlight her expertise, we added sections with before-and-after galleries, client testimonials, and detailed service descriptions. This way, potential clients can immediately see her professionalism and get answers to their questions.

How beautiful is it that we live in a world of seasons? (And how incredible is it that as women, we emulate nature by having our own set of seasons during our cycle too!!) In the last few years, I’ve really come to appreciate that each season has a purpose. None are better or worse than the other and each are necessary. And there is something absolutely beautiful about living your life according to the seasons and finding the beauty in each. I am grateful for winter because it forces us all to slow down. Be cozy. Take time to reflect. Rest is not earned, it is a human requirement. It’s a time to take care of your body and perhaps try your hand at new creative projects 🌨️ I am grateful for spring and the new beginnings it brings. The world slowly comes alive and encourages you to open windows, try new things, make plans, and be grateful for the warmth of sunshine. It is a season that brings new LIFE! 🌷 I am grateful for summer and the energy it brings. The days are long and the world feels limitless. It’s a time to take action, take risks, eat nourishing food from the Earth, and enjoy the extra long days 🌞 And lastly, I am grateful for fall. Fall is a time for preparation and harvest. It’s a time to begin slowing down, just like the leaves, it helps us realize that life is cyclical. Things will come, things will go, and things change. Nothing stays the same and that is beautiful and terrifying to realize. So love on your people and be grateful for all you have 🍂 What about you - how are you romanticizing winter?Button -

I am so grateful to live in a world with seasons. Winter comes every year to remind us to slow down and reflect. As the temps get colder and the nights get longer, I hope you take time to rest, eat that extra brownie, spend time with loved ones, treat yourself to something special, and look back on all you accomplished this year. It can be so easy to constantly be looking forward but don’t forget to revel in how far you’ve come too. It’s a busy season for us at Dope Magic as we wrap up projects before going on holiday break. We will be out of office starting December 20th until January 6th. We cannot express our gratitude enough for everyone who has trusted us to help them with their website this year.

Before working with Dope Magic Co. many of our clients have the same story. They built their site when they first started as an esthetician, but as they are growing, they realize website they started with is clunky, frustrating, and hard to use. Here’s where we come in. We build custom websites and eComm stores for estheticians who are ready to make impact in their businesses. They aren’t here for “good enough” they want to create an experience for their clients that supports them from the moment they get on their website till after they walk out the door post appointment. After working with us, their sales skyrocket (check our case studies 😚) their clients are happier, and they have more EASE and flow in their businesses. That’s the Dope Magic Co. way.Button -

If you’ve not made plans for your Black Friday, PLEASE save this graphic and promise us you’ll come back to it later. Black Friday is a great opportunity to inject some cash into your esti biz before the end of the year. Think about it this way — your clients already trust you, they already know what products they need (based on your expertise), why not incentivize them to get a lil something special for themselves and/or someone else during the holiday season. And if you’re feeling overwhelmed, just know you don’t have to put on some huge thing for your people. Simply just adding in some intentional discounts for your people is enough to make a difference. Be sure to save this/share it with someone who needs to see it and drop all your Black Friday questions below!Button -

10 years ago the idea of replacing your income with ANYTHING online was honestly extremely uncommon and not super straight forward — especially if you were a service based business like an esthetician. Now though, it’s so much easier to make more money or even replace the income from appointments by selling products on your personal eComm store. People hear things like this and think there must be some sort of gimmick or catch, but the reality is — if you have customers who already love you, and products you already use and recommend it’s very possible to add a whole lot more money to your monthly revenue with eComm. If you’re interested in seeing how this could look for you, head to our website and check out some of our case studies to see how we’ve helped our clients build out highly profitable eComm stores.Button -

I know this may sound like a crazy concept to some, but at Dope Magic Co. we don’t believe in trying to convince people to work with us. There are a lot of business people who will tell you that you should talk people through objections. If they say they can’t afford it, convince them they can. If they say you aren’t the right fit, convince them you are. One, that feels ICKY to us, and two…we don’t need to do that. We’re currently booking for 2025 because we’ve already filled our 2024 calendar with people who were a full YES. We chose people over profit. We don’t believe in slimy sales tactics. And we truly love and care so so deeply about every client we work with, cause that’s just the Dope Magic Co. way! ⚡️Button -

When @ccskinstudio reached out to me, she had a Shopify site that she made YEARS ago when she was first starting out. Over the years, Cecia has evolved to become one of the premier esthetician’s in the industry (anyone who knows Cecia will agree!!) and she was ready for a site that reflected that. Based on her goals, we strategized with her to create a site that prioritizes eComm, drives virtual and in person bookings, highlights her acne transformations and reviews, and above all, is SEO friendly for her to be able to serve more clients in the Arizona area. Interested in learning more? We’ve got a full case study about her on our site!Button -

I get it, you don’t read blogs so you feel like writing blogs is a waste of time 😵💫 But I’m here to tell you that atleast one person is “reading your blog” and that’s GOOGLE! The more keywords you have on your site like “acne” “facial” “laser” “skincare salon”, the more Google recognizes “Hey, this is a website about skin care!”. So whenever someone in your area searches for a facial, Google will show your site because it knows, without a doubt, that your website is what they are looking for! A great way to get more keywords on your site is through blogs. (You can also work with us to ensure your website is designed to be as SEO rich as possible 😉)If you can swing it, write one blog a month or every other month and use keywords like your city and your services to start popping up higher on search results!Button -

This means you get to: 1) keep providing an excellent service to your clients because you aren’t always nearing burnout 2) get some of your time back to live your life At Dope Magic Co. we specialize in helping estheticians and salon owners create websites and eComm stores that allow them to integrate in their products and attract new customers seamlessly.

Yesterday I turned 30 and to welcome in a new decade, I wanted to share things I have learned since starting my business. I’ll never forget graduating university, being 21, and thinking there had to be more to life than joining a corporate job straight out of college. Little did I know that feeling would set me off onto my own path of being an entrepreneur. Being a business owner is not for the weak, all of you can attest to that, and over the years, there have been many failures, mistakes, and successes that I learned from. The highest of highs and the lowest of lows. Running Dope Magic Co (and my other businesses!!) has not only made me more confident and more resilient, it has shown me that I am far more capable and smart than I once believed. Thank you to everyone who wished me happy birthday and an even bigger thank you to everyone who has supported me and cheered me on this last decade. I wouldn’t be here without you and I friggin mean that. Cheers to another trip around the sun, love you chickens! 🎂Button -

Hello my chickens! I am OOO until October 8th to celebrate my 30th birthday 🎂 My friends and I are road tripping up to New England and spending my 30th in Acadia National Park 🍁 This has been a dream of mine to do for years and I can’t believe I’m finally getting to do it, and for such a fun occasion! If you have any recs for Buffalo, NY, Stowe, VT, or Maine, send them my way 🥰 I look forward to unplugging, spending time in nature, and being surrounded by some of my favorite people in the world. For all requests or inquiries, send me an email and I’ll respond when I’m back. See y’all on the other side of 30!! 🥹Button -

If you aren’t seeing results with your eComm store I can almost guarantee it’s because of one of these things. 1. You aren’t talking about your products enough. I need you to YAP about your products. Do you know how many ads we’re exposed to in a single day? (it’s A LOT!!) A single IG story is *cute* but I’m going to need you to talk about them as much as you love them. 2. Your website doesn’t have filters! People want to find what they are looking for with ease, so make it easier to do so! 3. You only have your products on one page of your site. You need to have them all over it. Make it obvious your site is an eComm site! 4. You don’t share your product links enough! You’ll make your skincare routine video and then not create a direct way for your community to shop it. Make it easy for your people to buy by adding links. (BTW - when we create your store in Shopify, you’ll be able to easily link your Ahopify If I’m going to be real though, the biggest thing you need to do is talk about your products more. Once you think you’ve annoyed everyone with how much you’ve talked about your products, I’m gonna need you to talk about them even more k thnx byeeee 😉😌Button -

First off, what is a domain? Your domain is the URL of your website. If you ever want to have a website in the future, we highly recommend purchasing a domain sooner than later so no one can take it from you! It costs anywhere from $10 to $30 a year and is worth having in your back pocket for whenever you need it. There are lots of options of where you can purchase a domain but we always recommend Godaddy. Other popular ones are Squarespace or Bluehost. Once you purchase your domain, do not lose your login information. Write it down because if you ever lost it or can’t access your domain, it’s nearly impossible to gain access. Whenever we create your website, we will need to access your domain to attach your new website. Questions? Ask em below!Button -

One of my favorite parts of getting older has been unlearning the belief that I have to change who I am to be loved and accepted. I tried on so many “hats” in my 20s. A travel blogger, a podcaster, au pair, a project manager, waitress, van lifer, a camp founder, beerista, the owner of a web design agency. Each time I tried something new, I learned something about myself. I learned my strengths, my weaknesses, what I love, what brings me energy and what doesn’t. And with each thing, with each year that has gone by, I have become more and more sure of who I am and all I bring to the table. So much unlocked for me this year when I stopped trying to be who I thought people wanted me to be and I just focused on being who I wanted to be. My yeses and nos are more genuine. I get to work with my dream clients. And my relationships are deeper than ever before. I am so grateful for this life. I am so grateful for the opportunity to try things! To fail! To succeed! And above all, I am so grateful I never gave up on me. Because she is pretty great 💛Button -

Two things come to mind when we hear this from our estis. One - what does successful mean to you? Is it a monetary amount or is it building a strong foundation? Sure if you don’t have a huge following or client base yet, you most likely aren’t going to have a $50k launch. Don’t be disheartened by this and instead, focus on the fact that success looks like setting yourself up for success. When you set up your systems correctly the first time, you are creating a strong foundation for growth. As you grow, as you sell more product, as you gain more clients, you will continue to grow in a sustainable way because you took the time to invest in an ecomm website that is set up correctly. Two - Your clients, no matter how many you have, want to buy your products. Why not make it easy for them? Make it easy for them, make it easy for you! The easier the checkout process is, the more people will buy.Button -

But only because he introduced me to coding…so maybe coding was my first crush? Weird, I know 🤪 I’ve been a creator since the days of coding Myspace profiles, and my journey has only gotten wilder from there. After earning a triple degree in marketing, management, and international business (and some massive eleven lines) from the University of Kentucky, I dove headfirst into travel blogging. Building my website from scratch on WordPress got me hooked on web design. I then honed my skills at a marketing agency, where a badass CEO mentor taught me how to run an agency like a pro. Fast forward to the present and Dope Magic Co. is my full-time labor of love, bringing over 10 years of experience and ecommerce expertise to the table. As I grew my business, I realized I was passionate about each website for estheticians I was creating. I quickly started specializing in ecommerce website packages for estheticians and transforming their online presence into a money-making, high-converting eCommerce machines. Now? I’m all about making your esthetician website work as hard as you do. I design and build your store based on your goals, your vibe, and your personality. I’ll never push my own agenda on you, but I will guide you to making the best decisions for your business. Your website will always be ahead of the curve because I don’t just build websites; I build relationships and loyalty with your brand. I spark connections. And I create jaw-dropping, user-friendly experiences that increase your sales and protect your long-term growth. I’m a badass woman who gets the job done right the first time.

Long story short, if you already have your website on Squarespace and are getting into the world of eComm, Squarespace is easy to use and will get the job done. It’s great if you are running the site solo and don’t want to pay someone to code your site. BUT if you’re really ready to prioritize online sales, Shopify is where it’s at. I mean — there’s a reason why companies like Skims and Sephora choose to use Shopify! 🤑 Shopify may be a *bIt* more complex, but it offers so much tooling that allows you to scale your business seamlessly. You get access to detailed analytics and reports, email marketing based on customer targeting, unlimited eComm growth, and multiple payment options like Shop Pay. It also does great with integrating other apps that allow you to offer fun discounts and upsells to increase sales. If you’ve got any questions on which is better for you, slide into our DMs! We’d love to help point you in the right direction.Button -

From solo esti to an esti with a team and an eComm store! 🎉 Introducing the new Future You Skin online store 🛍 What a year it has been! Madison and I are started our journey in December when I built her a 5 page website for her skincare salon. Quickly after that, her business starting rapidly growing and she brought on another esti to help.

Well just like you’ll hear us tell you all again and again, when you work with us we are in it for the long haul! So when Madison reached out saying she was ready for a Shopify store, we said SAY LESS! Congratulations @futureyou.skin on your new eComm store!

Let me guess, your day typically looks like this: You wake up and get to the studio for your morning appointments. As you’re mid-appointment you get a *ping*, it’s a repeat client asking about buying that cleanser you used on them last week. You wait to finish up the appointment before running to your cabinet to check and see what you have in stock. You text the client and tell them you have it, and they can Venmo you (which you end up having to pay the consequences for at the end of the month because you can’t easily keep track of where money is coming from). As soon as you’re done handling that, your next appointment comes in. You end up spending the whole day toggling between in-person services, trying to manage selling product, and responding to questions clients have because there’s no other means for them to get information. By the end of the day you’re exhausted, burnt out, and don’t have time for much else. This is a story I’ve seen time and time again with our esti clients. If this feels like a familiar story, it’s time for you to invest in your systems and support. It’s time for you to invest in a better website/eComm store so you can get some of your time back.

Ya live and learn, right? 🙂🙃 When I first started taking on clients as a web designer, I was charging $500 and said yes! to every single change, request, or add on a client asked for without charging them for it. Imagine a client coming in for a facial and then asks for a lash lift, wax, and dermaplane and you just charged them for a facial 😅 As the years have gone by, I’ve learned how to set boundaries to keep myself and my client happy, grown a lot as a designer, and have years of experience understanding what a website needs that baby Joelle just didn’t even know yet. Remember, you get what you pay for! Investing in a website can range from hundreds to thousands of dollars. When you’re paying a premium for a website, you’re not only paying for a web designers industry knowledge but also the peace of mind it will be done correctly the first time. Here are some mistakes I wish I could tell baby Joelle to avoid: 🌟 Charge for Branding I used to offer full brand kits (fonts, colors, and logo) as part of my website package. Aka I was giving A LOT of extra work for free. This led to burn out and resentment and it was easily avoidable by having it be an extra fee! 🌟 Check All Buttons There is nothing that can lose a visitor like buttons or links that don’t go where they are supposed to. Check your buttons and links on ALL devices before going live. 🌟 Add Privacy and Terms “Privacy and terms pages? No one reads those, they aren’t important.” WRONG. Even if no one reads them, they legally protect your ass. Make sure your website has them. 🌟 Add SEO keywords There is indeed a difference between making a pretty site and making a pretty site that is ALSO SEO friendly. Your web designer should be doing some basic keyword research and using that on your site to ensure more eyes are going to get on your beautiful site! 🌟 Keep Accessibility in Mind This is the BIGGEST one and one I still see soooo many web designers not doing. Make sure your website is accessible by correctly labeling your headings, checking the contrast on your colors and text, and adding alt text to images. The last thing we want is you to be sued for having an inaccessible site 😓Button -

This was my fourth time visiting NYC and when I tell you I had NEVER understood the appeal of living here.. it always felt like a place I would visit but never live. But this time? I finally get it. NYC is a city of possibilities. It’s a city with so many types of people, outfits, places, and opportunity. You can be anyone you want to be in New York. This trip made me realize that the world is BIG. That both excited me and humbled me. I was reminded that just because everyone around you is doing one thing, or in a certain stage of life, doesn’t mean that you have to be on the same timeline. I’ve recently felt so much pressure to be farther ahead in business. To be married and own a home. Start a family and slow down. Constantly feeling like I’m playing catch up and always behind. Sometimes it takes getting out of your daily bubble to realize that life truly is, at all times, whatever you want it to be. I’ve got some ideas up my sleeve and I’m excited to see how things pan out the rest of this year. All I know is that I’ve got some living to do and some big dreams to chase!

First off, what is a conversion rate? 🤔 A conversion rate measures the amount of people who visit your store and complete a purchase. For example, if your website has 200 visitors/month and 50 sales, the conversion rate would be 25%. We help you achieve high conversion rates by doing the following: 🌟 Designing an easy to navigate and aesthetically pleasing website 🌟 Strategically placing call to action buttons throughout your site 🌟 Adding filters to your online store for easier browsing 🌟 Utilizing Shopify features like Shop Pay, autofill, subscriptions, and quick view 🌟 Sprinkling related products in strategic locations to encourage higher order values 🌟 Designing your entire website with conversions and strategy in mind AND we would be amiss if we didn’t mention this one crucial element: Our clients offer great services and have a community that ships them.

To be an entrepreneur is to be changed. I remember being a year into my business and feeling like a total failure for not hitting six figures yet. I felt like everywhere I looked it was “Here’s how I made six figures in six months!” “I left my job and made $350k in 3 months!” “Here’s what you need to do to make $100k this year” 😵💫 Rule number one of entrepreneurship: focus on your journey and your journey alone. I didn’t hit six figures in my 2nd year.. or my 4th.. or my 5th. But the number slowly got bigger every year. I tried things that worked, some that didn’t. I sold offers that no one bought. I joined a corporate job for a year and a half. I rebranded over and over until I finally felt like my brand represented who I was on and off screen. I built websites for hundreds of businesses and business owners. I followed what I was good at and invested more time into that. I burnt out. I learned to accept help in areas that I previously hid my head in the sand for. I restarted my Instagram from scratch. I started a podcast and attended masterminds. I became a Shopify expert. Each and every thing that’s happened in the last 7 years was a pebble on my mountain. Even though the pebbles felt meaningless to start, I still added to my mountain. Little by little. Instead of chasing metrics, I focused on delivering an exceptional product to every single person that decided to invest in me. I stopped comparing my journey to everyone’s else. I figured out the areas I was getting in my own way and made adjustments. And now? Well now I’ve got a pretty great mountain. And not only that, my mountain allows me to reach my hand down and lift up other women so they can succeed on their own mountains too. To be an entrepreneur is to be changed. To be an entrepreneur is to believe in yourself even when no one is watching. To all my fellow entrepreneurs - I’m honored to stand by you. Keep adding pebbles to your mountain! 🏔Button -

Y’all this most be the most elegant site we’ve ever created ✨ Meet Lila, a hair stylist based in North Dallas that specializes in hair extensions and color. Lila was referred to us from another web designer (we love you @glocreativedesign) and knew that she offered an incredible service but needed help creating a website that matched the level of expertise she brings to the table 👏🏼 We helped her upgrade from a basic Godaddy site to a fully custom 5 page website. Her website is now strategically built to encourage bookings, her work is now elegantly displayed, and most importantly: we designed her site with SEO in mind so she can start ranking higher for North Dallas hair services. Lila we are so grateful we got to create this site for you! Thank you for trusting us to bring your Parisian vision of a website to life ☺️ Go check it out all y’all and if you’re looking for extensions or hair services in North Dallas, Lila’s your girl! 💇🏼♀️Button -

I get it, you don’t read blogs so you feel like writing blogs is a waste of time 😵💫 But I’m here to tell you that atleast one person is “reading your blog” and that’s GOOGLE! The more keywords you have on your site like “acne” “facial” “laser” “skincare salon”, the more Google recognizes “Hey, this is a website about skin care!”. So whenever someone in your area searches for a facial, Google will show your site because it knows, without a doubt, that your website is what they are looking for! A great way to get more keywords on your site is through blogs. (You can also work with us to ensure your website is designed to be as SEO rich as possible 😉) If you can swing it, write one blog a month or every other month and use keywords like your city and your services to start popping up higher on search results!Button -
