Melanie Lea – Powerhouse Web Designer

A business course for web designers.

Learn how to use Dubsado and my client-tested template library to automate your client systems, save 10+ hours per project and deliver a $5k+ web design experience.

There are 5 major client processes every web designer should “set and forget” so they can focus their time on marketing and taking care of clients.

PROCESS #01: Lead generation

You need a simple way to start generating leads ASAP that doesn’t require you to spend weeks planning and building out an email marketing freebie.

PROCESS #02: Your booking process

You need a repeatable workflow for your proposal, contract and invoicing that gets clients to book FAST and doesn’t take hours to set up each time.

PROCESS #03: Content collection

Collecting website content is the MOST UNIVERSAL PROBLEM that web designers face. You need to offer more support and guidance for your clients.

PROCESS #04: Presentation & feedback

Present your website designs in a way so clients KNOW you’re the website expert! Help them give you feedback in a thoughtful, organized way.

PROCESS #05: Offboarding

Once a client goes through your design process, this is your chance to grab a testimonial, get a referral or book repeat work (without having to get super visible or consistent with your content)

Inside Powerhouse Web Designer you’ll get Dubsado tech guidance and access to 50+ templates to streamline all 5 of these client processes quickly!

MODULE 01: Optimize your website & portfolio

I want the whole internet to clearly know what “your thing” is and how to book with you! We’ll cover messaging on your website, creating a portfolio that sells and increasing traffic to your website.

MODULE 05: Diversify your income

It can be good to develop ongoing services and supplementary services (or even digital products) to create recurring revenue and stabilize your business. I’ll show you how to present your ongoing services or develop + sell a simple evergreen product to diversify your income!

Dubsado is a SUPER robust tool but we only cover need-to-know information in the first 3 steps (to save your sanity). You can use this module in step 4 to dive deeper into the tool and learn extra ways you can use Dubsado to streamline your processes and workflows.

MODULE 07: Hiring support

In this module you’ll think about what support would be most helpful as you build out your team. We’ll go over where to find these people, how to create a job posting, what to ask during interviews and other things to think about as you hire support for your business!

Collecting data helps you understand your growth and empowers you to make better decisions for your business! I’ll break all of that down for you and give you simple spreadsheets you can use to track your progress and keep an accurate pulse on the health of your business.
