Work With Us

f.a.q.

General

  • We are located in Michigan & Florida! While we are located in EST, we cater to clients all over the United States!

  • We work with female-led business owners who provide a service to their audience.

    We have worked with travel advisors, aesthetic nurse injectors, Influencers, taprooms, and much more!

  • We prefer all communication is done via email. This keeps us all on the same page! We also include a shared Google Drive for you to upload any photos, inspo, and branding!

WEBSITE DESIGN

  • The Website Revamp Package is what we recommend! It’s just what you need for a new fresh website for yourself & your brand.

  • It really depends on the project. Our websites take anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks to complete, depending on the package you choose. Additionally, we offer 48 hours of free website maintenance after we finish your site. This allows for any additional small changes and ensures everything is to your liking.

  • We only work with Squarespace and Showit. This way we can easily accommodate both Service-Based & Product-Based Businesses. We often encourage our clients to use (or switch to) these platforms as we believe they are the best. The number of integrations already established are total selling points for us & our clients! Scheduling, eCommerce, and email campaigns are just a few of our favorites.

  • Yes! We understand investing in a website can be a big deal and can be expensive. Especially to just starting businesses. We offer a split 50/50 payment plan where you pay a 50% non-refundable deposit to hold your space & then 50% due upon completion of the project.

    We can also offer 33/33/34 payment options. 33% due upfront as a non-refundable deposit to hold your space, 33% due on your project start date, and 34% due upon completion of the project.

  • You absolutely do! As soon as it’s done being built, it is yours! You will own any graphics or images that were created during the building process, as well.

  • We’re mind-readers. Just kidding! Before we start, we hop on a call to learn about what you’re looking for. After that, we have a detailed questionnaire we send where you can insert any branding you already have, color palettes, photos, etc.

  • THAT IS SOMETHING WE CAN TOTALLY ACCOMMODATE! WE TOTALLY GET THAT YOU MAY NEED MORE PAGES ABOUT SERVICES, PROCESSES, PRODUCTS, ETC.

    AFTER WE HIT THE 5-PAGE MARK WE CHARGE PER ADDITIONAL PAGE.

    Please Note: A home page is automatically included in your 5 total pages.

SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGEMENT

  • We specialize in Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn.

  • Getting started with us is a big deal, and the first steps are super important. Here's what the onboarding process looks like:

    ☼ Discovery Call

    ☾ Custom Proposal

    ☼ Contract & Initial Invoice

    ☾ New Client Questionnaire

    ☼ Social Media Strategy + Audit

    ☾ Personalized Content Calendar

    ☼ Content Creation

    ☾ Posting & Engagement

  • After both parties sign the contract, it usually takes about 3 weeks before we kick off posting. Crafting an amazing social media strategy requires time and careful planning, and we believe in giving it the attention it deserves. Just a heads up, the process might stretch a bit longer based on how quickly we get your responses.

  • We understand that Social Media Management is an investment, and that's why we offer the following payment choices:

    ☼ Monthly Payments

    ☾ Bi-Weekly Payments

  • Although we'd be thrilled to have a lasting partnership (we genuinely love our clients!), our aim is to guide you through the entire process so that eventually, you can handle it independently. To get things rolling, we do ask for a 3-month contract because it typically takes about 3-6 months to witness substantial results.
