EP 74 | Creating Effective Website Copy with Rachel Verde

Are you tired of your website just sitting there, feeling more like a placeholder than a real extension of your brand? For many business owners, their first website is a “good enough” effort, created quickly and with limited resources, but it can quickly become an embarrassment. 
And what if that “good enough” site is actually costing you clients?
In today’s episode, you’ll meet Rachel Verde, a web copy specialist who knows exactly what it takes to make a website stand out in a crowded market. Together, we explore how to shift your website from “meh” to magnetic. 
Rachel is a copywriter on a mission to help online entrepreneurs use their words to skyrocket their business and client relationships. She has a background in corporate marketing and uses data to help craft words that make an impact. When she’s not pouring her heart out onto the page–she’s probably barefoot, baking challah bread, and belting out worship songs with her little guy. 
Rachel breaks down the unique purposes of each page—like the homepage, about page, and services page—and shares why these sections should do more than just fill space. 
You’ll learn:
Why knowing your ideal client is crucial for writing effective website copy that resonates and converts
Simple tweaks to help each page speak authentically to your audience, even if you’re still building confidence in your brand
How strategic opt-ins and high-converting headlines can make all the difference in turning visitors into leads
