Designing a website for a service business that works by Dante

Drop into almost any small business website and you’ll find it hard to avoid the cringe-worthy claims and common cliches like “best in the business” or “our difference is customer service.”

We all know that if you have to tell us how good you are, you’re probably not all that good.

Customers use websites to find out information, verify referrals, buy products, order services and research future purchases.
Yet we seem to want to fill out websites full of useless, redundant information that doesn’t help our customers to do any of this.
In this online class based upon the work of Donald Miller in “Building a StoryBrand” you will learn:

1. What we all do wrong with websites
2. The anatomy of a website that works
3. What you need in each section of your site
4. The language you should be using
5. What the best performing websites are laid out like

This workshop is brought to you by Business Station and AusIndustry under the Digital Solutions Program.
