I dunno about you, but growing up, I was a MAJOR penny pincher.
I couldn’t help it – I got it from my dad. He’s one of those guys that will always buy store brand instead of name brand at the grocery store. He’s the reason why I MUST collect all the points/stars/punches everywhere I go. My husband hates it – I remember one time we were at McDonald’s and when we pulled up to the first window to pay, as he started to pull up to the second window I literally yelled “WAIT MY POINTS!” and made him slam on the brakes so she could scan my phone. He was so irritated at me LOL but I can’t help it…ya girl loves earning free shit.
As I’ve gotten older, I’ve realized that sometimes, cheaper isn’t always the best route to go.
Like the cute combat boots I got for under $50 on Amazon that literally fell apart at the sole about 2 months after I bought them. I mean, I shouldn’t be surprised…you get what you pay for, right? I learned that lesson the hard way when I stepped outside in the rain one day and felt the wetness instantly hit my toes – BLEH.
This is a money mindset belief that I’m actively working on changing: not everything has to or SHOULD be purchased cheap. And this doesn’t just apply to things I’m purchasing, but also to my web design business.
The $500 Website Trap
For the first year as a web designer, I lowballed myself HARDDD. I was charging $500 for a website that was worth SO much more than that. A lot of it came out of fear and scarcity…if I charged what I believed I was worth, would people buy from me? My dad’s cheap ass mindset blocks were INGRAINED in me and it wasn’t until I started really digging into manifestation and money mindset work last fall that I realized my work is worth SO much more than what I was charging.
Because the truth is, the ROI on a GOOD website isn’t just a few hundred bucks. It can be thousands…even millions.
What Makes a Website GOOD? (Like, Actually Good)
A high-quality website isn’t just a digital business card that sits there collecting dust. A GOOD website:
- Turns strangers into raving fans – It takes people who don’t know shit about you and turns them into absolute raving stans that cannot wait to work with you.
- Has clear, strategic messaging – The kind that speaks directly to the soul desires of your dreamiest clients in a way that makes them feel like YOU are the only option.
- Automates and streamlines your business – Your website should people to book, sign a contract, pay their invoice, schedule their welcome call and receive their welcome email from you…all while you’re asleep dreaming about Carlos Sainz fanning you down while he feeds you grapes poolside in Spain (no? Just me? Cool cool.)
- Attracts high-quality clients – The kind that you get GIDDY over because they are just so aligned with your values and vibes – it should also repel those clients that make you wanna pull your hair out and jump off the nearest, steepest cliff.
Why You Can’t Afford to Settle for a $500 Website
If you’re serious about growing your business to the next level, you can’t afford to settle for a cheap, low-quality website. Here’s why:
- A bad website costs you money. Every time someone lands on a website that’s outdated, confusing, or just plain fugly, they bounce. And every bounce is a lost sale. No bueno.
- A powerful website works for you 24/7. Imagine a website that books clients while you’re out on date night with your hubby, at your son’s baseball game, or just binging Love Island in your bed. That’s what a GOOD website does.
- Your time is too valuable. DIYing or going cheap usually means more headaches down the line—fixing broken links, updating clunky layouts, or wondering why the fuck nobody is booking with you.
What My Websites Offer (Hint: It’s More Than Just Pretty Pages)
When you think about it, you can’t afford NOT to have a GOOD website in place for your business.
And the websites that I create? They aren’t the type of website you’ll get when you pay $500 to some rando on Fiverr. My websites give ALL-INCLUSIVE. When you invest in one of my website experiences, you’re not just getting a website. You’re getting a massively powerful, transformational tool that’s built to scale your business.
