    We ask clients about their awards, accolades, and We ask clients about their awards, accolades, and memberships.⁠ ⁠ Even if we are waiting for a response, we design these in with placeholders.⁠ ⁠ We allow space for this because it builds credibility.⁠ ⁠ Trust badges are visual symbols on websites. They reassure customers about security and credibility. They often include logos of security providers, payment processors, or certifications.⁠ ⁠ Why do they work? 👇⁠ ⁠ ✔️ Social proof: Trust badges act as social proof. They signal that others trust this site. People follow others’ actions, especially in uncertainty.⁠ ⁠ ✔️ Authority: Badges from recognised authorities leverage authority. People trust recommendations from credible sources.⁠ ⁠ ✔️ Reduction of perceived risk: Trust badges reduce perceived risk. Customers feel secure entering personal and payment information.⁠ ⁠ ✔️ Oxytocin release: Trust triggers oxytocin, a bonding hormone. This makes customers feel comfortable and connected.⁠ ⁠ ✔️ Consistency: Consistent display of trust badges reinforces security. It makes customers feel safe and likely to purchase.⁠ ⁠ Definitely worth it then! ⁠ ⁠ BONUS TIP ✴️: Make sure you get good quality SVG versions of these and size them consistently, as presentation is key!⁠ ⁠
    Yes, today is December 1, 2024, and the Sagittariu Yes, today is December 1, 2024, and the Sagittarius New Moon. Keren joined the call for Alicia Orre’s “To the Stars” group. Keren and Alicia go waay back - they met more than a dozen years ago and have travelled together, run events together, had many deep discussions and partied together countless times! These 2 images are from a screenshot of the call (there were others in the group, but we wanted to post today, so we didnt have time to do “model release forms” Alicia described Sagittarius as the most expansive new moon, perfect for setting intentions. This timing is particularly significant because: It’s aligned with the great attractor, making it the most potent new moon cycle until December 2025 The new moon is squaring Saturn, which relates to creating legacy, mastery and achievements - though this may create some friction and challenges. For business goals, this suggests it’s an optimal time to: ⭐️ Set clear intentions for expansion and growth ⭐️ Recognise that challenges may arise but they’re part of the creation process ⭐️ Use this energy to review and realign any missed opportunities If you are into working with this powerful New Moon energy, then be ready to stretch beyond your comfort zone - this is a time to dream bigger than usual! Remember that resistance and challenges are part of the growth process - they build resilience rather than indicate you’re on the wrong path. Use this period to review past opportunities and reclaim abundance that may have passed you by. This is an especially potent time to: 👉 Launch new business ventures or expand existing ones 👉 Set up recurring revenue streams 👉 Reignite stalled projects or relationships 👉 Create legacy-building foundations All this came from less than 1 hour call with Alicia and the others in the “To The Stars” group!

    With any website, we need to have logical flow.⁠ With any website, we need to have logical flow.⁠ ⁠ When content flows logically from one point to the next, it makes it easy for your website visitor. It helps maintain reader interest and comprehension.⁠ ⁠ Example: A B2B website – let’s take the homepage to start with.⁠ ⁠ It’s crucial to present information in a way that aligns with the decision-making process of your audience. ⁠ ⁠ Here are the key elements and their order 👇⁠ ⁠ 1️⃣ Value proposition: clearly state what your business offers in one phrase or sentence, and include how it benefits the customer. this should be immediately visible on the homepage.⁠ ⁠ 2️⃣ About us: Initially on the main page, you just want to gain credibility and put enough personality in there to create a personal connection with your audience. I like to show key members of the team, or the CEO, with a good photo. People can click through to learn more detail on your company’s story, mission, and values.⁠ ⁠ 3️⃣ Customer testimonials and case studies: People need reassurance that you’ve got experience and have created successful outcomes for others like them. So show some headlines and one-liners for success stories and/or reviews/testimonials to reassure them.⁠ ⁠ 4️⃣ Call to action (CTA): include clear and compelling CTAs to guide visitors towards the next step, whether it’s contacting you, signing up for a demo, or downloading a resource.⁠ ⁠ 5️⃣ Contact information: make it easy for visitors to get in touch with you by providing multiple contact options, such as phone numbers, email addresses, and contact forms.⁠
