Hey everyone Adrienne Finch here welcome back to my channel in today's video I'm
going to show you guys why having a professional website for your personal
brand your business your product your service is extremely beneficial and the
best part is I'm gonna show you how to make one for free quickly and easily in
less than an hour so let's go
some of you guys may know I'm launching a business this year called self-made
CEO studio subtle branding so the business is going to be an online site
full of courses programs webinars access to live events access to community
forums all geared around empowering young aspiring entrepreneurs and working
professionals and people like you and me to help other people become the CEO of
their own wife's happiness relationships pretty much anything because with a
little bit of mindset training and business tactics you can literally
achieve absolutely anything so I needed a website for this business and I've
used Wix before and I love it it's easy I was actually charging my sorority's
website in college so I reached out to see if they'd want to partner with me on
a video to help me explain to you guys how easy and quick it can be to build a
professional website and they agreed so Thank You Wix for sponsoring this video
and helping me to share with you guys how easy it really can be but there's a
plot twist or could plot twist is that I'm still working out the Kings with my
business I'm actually not fully ready to launch my site but there is someone in
my life my cute dear mommy who has wanted a website for her
business for a really long time she's a psychologist in Seattle she's had
websites she just is so busy always helping people she's always changing
people's lives and she hasn't had the time to create a new updated website so
I decided in this video I'm actually gonna surprise her by creating her
website for her I'm literally so excited because if my business isn't fully ready
to launch but all I want to do is help people then why not help her launch hers
so basically I'm gonna walk you through some of my favorite components and Wix
how to quickly and easily make a very professional-looking website and if you
guys have any questions about this process leave them down below in the
comments and I will do my best to respond to all of them so without
further ado let's get into some website building okay so first you guys are
gonna go to Wix calm flush go slash Adriene pinch to get started right away
so that's what we're gonna do right now so here I am here is my mom say I am
just going to push create a new site for the sake of showing you how it starts so
when you push creating your site it automatically asks what kind of website
do you want to create business online store restaurant there's so many
different options so for my mom obviously she has a business she is a
psychologist click on business and then it asks
choose how you want to create your website so let Wix ATI create a website
for you which basically means you answer some questions and they're pretty much
gonna design it for you in a couple minutes I almost want to try doing them
just see what happens or create your website with the Wix editor so what's
really cool is you literally just drag it drop it is so self-explanatory I love
it so let's just click on that one just start so what I love is they have so
many different templates oh my gosh I already love like this one I love this
one they also show you the mobile version as well so you can make sure it
doesn't get all messed up mobile wise I think that minimal is definitely best
especially for someone like my mom's a therapist you don't want a lot going on
it's kind of just like yo I need help let's figure that out but so far this
one is really sticking out to me and I'm gonna click on View so this is what it
would look like you have kind of these different sections so basically this
just shows you an example of kind of what it can look like so there are so
many different templates as you saw so we're just going to click on edit so
that I can kind of show you how the sparks in so basically in the left hand
corner right here we have men using pages background you can add a bunch of
different things text images they have a whole gallery of like free images or
just super nice music you can add social you can add pretty much anything a
contact page everything is very self-explanatory you
click you can edit easy done
you can change the size font don't like that one
sit and you can also add some effects drop shadow punch out things like then
you can change these strip backgrounds you can have a different photo obviously
I actually liked what I had you just push edit undo so there you see kind of
the different function so now let's go into the site I actually already created
for my mom and take a look at that so this is the template that I actually
ended up choosing and I went through a process of just deciding how I wanted it
to go and what's really awesome about this is it's so self-explanatory you
really don't have to teach yourself anything it walks you right through all
the steps I just got really indecisive and kept changing what I thought I
wanted something really cool with this image editor situation is that they
offer you a ton of free graphics and other images that you can favorite by
clicking on that little star that way you kind of have a folder of all the
ones that you want to continuously use throughout the site so I was just
playing around with like different designs here kind of looking and seeing
what this template has and what Wix has in general I was rearranging some of the
sections we're obviously going a real fast here so it's actually funny how
many times I kind of switched it around you'll see once we get to the end but I
really just love how easy it is to create a site on here you have button
options you have different contact menu options you have so many different
graphics to choose from you really can go for any look you want and I feel like
the templates and just the site in general looks so sophisticated and so
high-tech so I just think that's awesome
what's really cool for my mom as well as they have this booking service so I can
actually create her appointments on here and people who are already her clients
can actually make appointments online versus calling an email and all of that
which sometimes it's just hard to stay on top of that these days so I'm
starting to get the site to kind of look how I want I'm liking the color scheme I
do need to delete some of those bottom parts I wanted to add all of my mom's
office addresses cuz she actually has three and she has no pictures of herself
so that picture that I put in for now is actually baby me and her and I'm gonna
change that eventually but I need to convince her to let me take some photos
of her but it's a cute little pic so here we have the finished website for
now so we got basically the little home section we have her clinical specialties
so all of her areas of expertise a little about me and we have a contact me
section and that's kind of it for now I'm gonna talk to her once I surprise
her and see if she wants anything else but for now there we have it
okay so now that you've seen the site I want to emphasize something really
really important a lot of business owners and entrepreneurs and just people
in general get really really caught up in the little details of having fancy
business cards and fancy expensive graphics and like a nice car and looking
the part and none of that matters all the matters to have a successful
business or a successful brand or product or service is that you haven't
offered that people really really really need that's all that matters
is getting something out there that people crave having it keeps them up at
night they would pay any amount of money to have help with this or to have this
service or to use this product that's why I'm a huge fan of having a website
because it is so simple to just have a simple landing page where people can get
all the information about your brand and links to your social media all of that
sort of stuff without all the fancy like advertising and business cards and feel
free to obviously do that if you want and it's not that intimidating it's not
expensive to maintain nothing so that's like the bear what I think you need I
think that people spend way too much time and money focused on like
everything else that doesn't matter it's all just frills at the end of the day if
you don't have a good offer it's good service or product your
business won't be successful it doesn't matter how fancy your suit is or how
fancy your business cards are it just well I also want to point out even if
you aren't ready to have a full-blown website yet you can totally make a
landing page that way people have somewhere to go that has like the basic
information but it's just one static page so I hope you guys enjoyed this
