How to Make a Professional Website That Still Has Personality: A Showit Template Case Study
Creating and launching a website for your business can be stressful, confusing, and challenging. Website creation requires an understanding of design, marketing, website flow / interaction, technology, a bit of coding, and so much more. Trust me, even after helping multiple clients through the process, having years of experience, and investing thousands on education – it still proves to be a big project to take on. So if you feel this way it’s completely understandable and valid.
I know this description has likely not eased your nerves all too much.
You might be thinking, “yeah that’s great, but how do I create and launch a website?!”
It’s totally possible for you! Today I’m excited to share a Case Study from Emma K Films on how she was able to use our Feather and Friend template to create and launch her website as stress free and enjoyable as possible, she puts it as ‘adding the final touches to fit her brand”!
Let’s jump right in!
“I knew I needed to “up my game”. My current website was scattered, unorganized, and had no representation of my brand. I wanted viewers to go to my website and feel that adventurous, cinematic, and unscripted feeling that Emma K Films believes in. I wanted my viewers to see that I was professional, yet personable. That I could make their wedding film a part of their day that will have and cherish forever. I knew my old website could not offer that and that I didn’t have the skills to create such a site. I needed a new website template so that I could spend my time focusing on stylizing the site to my brand as opposed to creating an entire website from scratch.”
– EMMA K.
How create a website that is professional, clean, and represents your brand:
Before switching, Emma was using a Squarespace website but didn’t know where to start, without the resources or direction she needed to create the space she wanted.
Having a website shouldn’t be holding you and your business back. Your website is your corner of the internet to make your own. Much like a physical space, if you have restrictions keeping you from expressing yourself, from doing what you love, or simply being too big of a task to get it where you want it.
Maybe it’s time to find a space that has the structure and charm that aligns with your style, all thats left to do is decorate!
Ask yourself this. When thinking about what’s holding you back within your website, do any of these objections creep into your mind?
Not connecting you with your clients
Are unable to make your website feel creative and actually like you
Frustrated because you’d rather spend more time on the things that YOU are an expert in
You’re overwhelmed, or feel unsupported with your current website, and have no idea where to start
Spending hours and hours without getting anywhere
Where Emma was before purchasing a template:
“I had absolutely no idea how to create or design a website when I first started my business. When I had first started, I knew I wanted to create a website for people to use and view my work so this led me to creating my own on Squarespace. I spent countless hours trying to design a website that ended up leading me nowhere. The website I created in no way represented my brand and was not appealing to my viewers. I felt scattered and struggled to hook and engage viewers on my previous website. I knew I wanted a website that would represent my brand well and that viewers would feel engaged in.” – EMMA K.
What made Emma decide to make the final push to purchase a template:
“As a videographer, I wanted videos to be able to play on my website in different places. I have struggled in the past finding a website host and template that would support video templates. Marissa’s template and website host Showit, allowed me to include videos all over my website. They even both gave me great tips on how to integrate them in my website in the best way!”
– EMMA K.
What the experience was like, what Emma liked most:
“Marisa and Showit were my greatest resource. They were always reaching out to help me in anyway possible and really made the experience run so much smoother. They provided me with great tips and tricks on how to create the best website and the template really made it so easy for me. I was spending more time on adding my own special brand touches to the site as opposed to creating an entire website without a template. I loved the idea and entire process of stylizing my own website and the website template was the best way for me to do so. It was most valuable that I create a site that represents my brand and gives me viewers the exact feeling of Emma K Films.”

From the day I released my new website to now, I still receive compliments on it’s design.
