Let’s get to know more about Katie and her work. 

What is the specialty that you offer?

WordPress Web Design (for businesses) & White Label Web Design (for designers & marketing agencies)

What is your “why” for focusing on web design?

I love to serve my clients, using my creative powers and strategy skills to help them feel more confident in their website and business.

Who is your ideal web design client?

I love working with service-based entrepreneurs who have the drive to grow and scale their businesses, but need a little help to look polished and professional. They are typically in the coaching, administrative, accounting, home service, or health and wellness industries.

What makes you different from other web designers?

I take time to listen to my clients needs and wants, while also offering strategic solutions to better help their website work for them! I take pride in delivering a website that looks amazing but also helps them capture leads and reach their goals.

Tell us something fun, quirky, or weird that you’d like our readers to know about you?

I love a good margarita. I’ve lived in Michigan my whole life because that’s where our families are. Winter here is my least favorite, so I love to vacation to warmer weather then!

What do you do for fun outside of running your business?

I like to spend time with my two little girls and my husband. We love to be outside kayaking / boating or taking a vacation.

Who inspires you?

Christy Wright

Is there one person or thing that you attribute your success to?

God

What is next for you and the business? Is there anything you’re looking forward to in your near future?

I’m looking forward to adding some more clients to do white label web design in the near future. I will have more time to focus on my business in the coming months as my girls are both in school, so I’m excited to see what God has in store for me.

What advice do you have for those on their entrepreneur journey?

Don’t give up! Surround yourself with a community of wonderful women that will help lift you up like SOWBO!

What book or podcast do you think every business owner should consume? Why is this important to you?

I love Elizabeth McCravy’s podcast Breakthrough Brand; she has so much knowledge and lots of good nuggets for all types of business owners.

What is one thing you love about SOWBO and/or being a member of our community?

I love that it feels like a family. All the women I’ve met are just so genuine and giving to each other. I’m so glad to have met Amanda, and I can’t wait to attend more in-person SOWBO events in the future.
