'Twas the night before site launch

‘Twas the night before site launch; they’d built it for “free”.
With ten different fonts and a glitch on page three.
The footer was missing, the spacing too tight —
But hey, it was done … (well, maybe not quite).

The logo was “meh,” design just “OK”.
The headline? Confusing — just too much to say.
Still, they hit publish and hoped for the best.
“Fingers crossed, we’ll succeed and stand out from the rest.”

But clients weren’t coming; the inbox a void.
And their hardworking team was much more than annoyed.
Was it the vibe? … The brand voice? … The way they were showing?
Turns out, DIY stops cash flow from growing.

Here’s the thing, patchwork brands don’t build real belief.
And unclear websites? They cause way more than grief.
When your business looks sketchy and hard to decode,
Prospects bounce right away, taking trust down the road.

Then came a reminder, sharp and direct:
“Confusion’s not charming; it just disconnects.
Your message must lead, your graphics align —
No more mixed signals. It’s clarity time.”

So they called in the pros; there’s no shame in that game.
Rewrote their story, repositioned their name.
They ditched the free template, invested with care,
And built a strong brand that makes great clients stare.

Now their website speaks loud, with a confident spark.
And dream clients get it — right from the start.
They don’t haggle or ghost, or skim past the page.
They click “book a call,” without doubt or delay.

So here’s a quick tip, before the year’s through:
DIY isn’t saving — it’s just costing you.
When clarity’s missing and things aren’t quite right,
Get help when you need it … and for all, a GOOD SITE!
