Are you attracting the wrong type of clients? The ones who expect a champagne service on a lemonade budget, or the ones who want everything done yesterday. Keep reading! 👇

Here’s the thing most tradesmen and local service businesses don’t realise...
Your website plays a massive role in the kind of clients you attract.
If your website looks outdated, sounds vague, or uses the wrong tone, you’ll keep attracting the wrong kind of leads.

One of my clients was in the exact same place, attracting the lower end of the market. Until I built them a new website... Now their install lead time is 12 weeks+ with custom, high-end installs, with better margins!

If your current site isn’t showing potential clients what you’re actually capable of, let’s fix it!

📩 DM me if you’re ready to attract leads that get it!

❌ 5 mistakes you’re making on your DIY website (and how to fix them) 👇🏻

Ignoring SEO
If you’re not showing up in local searches… how will people find you?
💡 Add keywords, clear page titles, and optimise each page individually.

Everything is crammed on one page
It’s confusing for visitors and useless for Google.
💡 Create separate pages for services and locations.

No reviews or testimonials
No social proof = no trust.
💡 Add genuine reviews with names, dates, and (if possible) photos.

Not mobile-friendly
If people have to pinch, zoom, or scroll sideways... they’ll leave.
💡 Use a responsive design and test it on your phone!

Poor or oversized images
Slow load times and blurry pics make you look unprofessional.
💡 Use sharp images sized properly.

When your restaurant's socials are done right, people stop scrolling...

✅ They click the link
✅ They book a table

Here’s the key:
Real photos = connection
Graphics = great for promos, not every post

If your feed’s full of stock images or graphic posts, you’re not standing out... AND that’s costing you customers.

Thinking about getting a website for your business? Here’s what I wish more business owners knew 👇

✨ Your website is for your customers - what do they need to see, what will make their experience smooth?
✨ It’s not just about looking good - strategy, structure, + SEO matter
✨ Your homepage isn’t the only thing that matters (hello service pages, location pages + clear calls to action)
✨ A one-page website isn’t going to bring in organic leads.

It should be building trust, helping people find you, and turning visitors into leads.
If you’re a small business owner who wants a website that’s easy, effective, and truly reflects your brand, I’d love to help. Drop me a message!

A lovely review to make my day 🧡

I built a website for their logistics business, not just something that looks good, but one that includes SEO and gets them found in search results, helps bring in leads, and shows off what they do best.

If your website doesn’t reflect your business, or you don’t even have one yet, pop me a message.

What’s the difference between Local SEO & National SEO?

📍 Local SEO helps you show up when people in your area search for what you do.
Think: “boiler repair Durham” or “wedding photographer near me”
It’s all about location, Google Maps, and being found by the people near you.

🌐 National SEO is about ranking anywhere in the UK.
Think: online stores, businesses that work UK-wide, or digital products.

So, if you’re a local business, such as a plumber, hairdresser, builder, or dog trainer, Local SEO is where the magic happens.

You don’t need to reach the whole country. You need to show up in the right postcodes.

Not sure which one you need (or if you’ve got the right setup for your business)? Send me a DM.

Tracey was my very first client when I started my business nearly 5 years ago. She believed in me right at the beginning. I had no website, no business name, just a laptop, determination, and her trust.

Sadly, with Tracey’s passing earlier this year, KMJ Mortgages will be closing. I feel incredibly proud to have supported her and the business through the years.

💙 An Important Update from KMJ Mortgages 💙

We wanted to inform you that KMJ Mortgages will officially close on July 25th.
This decision follows the heartbreaking passing of our owner, Tracey, earlier this year. Tracey poured her heart and soul into helping people get on the property ladder, and we know how many of you appreciated her warmth, honesty, and support.

Since then, Susan has worked incredibly hard to continue supporting clients through their mortgage journeys with the care and attention for which KMJ Mortgages is known. We would like to thank everyone for their trust, patience, and kind words over the past few months.

If you have any questions or require support after Friday, please get in touch with Susan at [email protected].

Thank you again for being part of the KMJ Mortgages journey. 💙

Selling luxury… but your website doesn’t look the part?

I saw a bathroom installation company on social media yesterday, spending money on paid ads to promote “luxury bathrooms” and high-end fittings.

Naturally, I clicked the link because the images they used were good, however...
The website looked like it hadn’t been touched in years!

❌ Clunky layout
❌ Slow loading
❌ Icons moving and hovering over text
❌ No appealing hero image or header telling me they sell luxury
❌ Very few images of completed bathrooms
❌ Screamed “cheap”, not “premium”

They’re paying to drive traffic to that site that gives a poor first impression, wasting money on paid ads!

If you're selling high-end, your website has to look high-end too.
People buying high-end products or services expect a certain experience from the second they open your website.

✨ Your website is part of your brand.
✨ It sets the tone before you even speak to the customer.
