What if the key to a high-converting website isn’t selling—but connecting?

In this episode, I chat with Skylar Sustin, a web designer and branding wizard, about how to create a website that resonates with your ideal client and doesn’t just make sales but makes an impact. Skylar breaks down how using brand psychology, personal stories, and authentic design can transform your website into a space that builds trust and inspires your audience to buy—without sleazy sales tactics.

We explore:

  • Why connection-focused websites are more effective in the long run
  • How to align your design with your brand values
  • Practical ways to make your website feel like a true reflection of you 

Skylar also shares her favorite strategies for creating emotional engagement that leades to conversions and why storytelling is the true "secret sauce" for standing out online.

Whether you’re refreshing your business website or starting from scratch, this episode is packed with insights to help you build an online presence that resonates, converts, and feels good to share with the world!
