The first step is to collect some general information like your business name, address, and social media links. This information will appear on multiple places throughout your website, but you only need to enter it once. You will also designate someone to be the content management system (CMS) administrator. This person will have full control over the content on the website, so we recommend assigning this role to a permanent employee with a company email address that doesn’t change.
In this section, you’ll upload your logo and select the accent colors used throughout your website. You’ll also include some information that will show up in a browser tab that helps to identify your website to visitors.
Upload your business logo. We recommend that your logo includes your business name. For best results, be sure to use a high-resolution .png file with a transparent background. (Only .PNG allowed. Max height is 120px. Max file size is 500kb.)
In this section, we’ll get all the technical information such as your domain and tracking IDs. If you get stuck or aren't sure about something, contact our support team for help.
In this section, we’ll cover the following content and settings:
If you are using the UpLaunch software, this is where you’ll paste the name to your UpLaunch journey. This is also where you can add tracking codes for Google Analytics and Facebook.
Your introductory offer is one of the most effective ways to get new customers. It removes the momentum block of potential customers having to think about the information you've presented and instead gives them the ability to continue in the sales funnel and act right now — ideally at little or no cost. Remember that the introductory offer is the first step of your relationship with your new client so select something that introduces them to all your business has to offer and sets the stage for your relationship moving forward. Good examples of introductory offers include:
This section includes a title, short description, and a lead generation form (which looks like a contact form).
If you are using UpLaunch or Zen Planner, you will add your lead generation form information that will send leads and prospects from your website to your software.
If you are not using UpLaunch or Zen Planner, you will set up a general website contact form that will send a prospect’s information to your email address.
In this section, you’ll first select the pages you’d like to include on your website. (Note: If you don’t want to use a page now, you can always add it in later.) Then, we’ll walk you through how to set up your menu.
Just to recap, you chose the Agency Rocket Theme. Here's a look at the theme you chose to remind you of the layout and content sections for each page. If this is not the theme you chose or you are having second thoughts, please reach out and we'll get you to the theme you're looking for.
The Homepage is the first page your website visitors see when they visit your website. The content on your Homepage will give visitors an overview of who and what your business is all about. Think of this page as your chance to make a great first impression!
We use the StoryBrand® framework to build your Homepage. What does that mean? The layout of this page is designed to encourage prospective clients to contact you. And more prospects mean more members! You’ll highlight some of the pain points you help your clients overcome. And, you’ll provide a simple process for how to take that first step toward becoming a member.
Here are the sections you’ll see on your Homepage:
Tip: As you add the content for your Homepage, try putting yourself in the shoes of a client. Focus on how your programs and services can help prospective clients – make it less about you and more about how you’re here to help.
The first section of your Homepage is where you'll make your first impression with prospective clients, so we're going to set it up with a few text-based messages and a large, attention-grabbing image that represents your brand.
(1125 x 1500 pixels recommended. Max file size is 500kb.)
Pain points are the struggles and unmet needs of your potential clients. And these are the problems your business solves. Pain points can be anything from being a busy professional who needs a facility with late hours to staying motivated and could benefit from a group environment. Highlight the common challenges that you specialize in helping your target market overcome. Use short, direct, no-nonsense language to describe the experience that you provide.
Examples of Pain Points:
