Quotes

"When business owners talk about their website they think about the colors and how it is going to feel and how the photography is going to work. That is all super important and that's what builds that credibility and makes people feel like they are in the right place, but if you don't get found in the first place then that is where you need to start." [Connie, 11:33]

"The success of your business is the success of your marketing efforts. Let's start with that low hanging fruit, and those people who are looking for your services." [Connie, 12:26]

"With the fitness studio owner in mind, you need a website that can embed functionality from third-party platforms like fitDEGREE, and you need some things that you can grow and that is flexible for you." [Connie, 18:29]

"If you're sliding in stock photos that aren't [of] your real space, you're crossing a line of not building credibility, and in fact, killing any trust that you have." [Connie, 28:12]
