Website for an easy to use SaaS platform for small business

We would like a new website for our organization. We would like this done, most likely, in WordPress using an Ocean WP theme or similar themeStudents should be prepared to:Conduct a needs analysis to determine which platform is most suitable if WordPress is not a good fit.Create a design proposal including mock-ups, copy and timeline. Build a fully-functioning website that includes company info, features of our SaaS, what "pain points" we solve, and what differentiates us from our competitors.The "look and feel" should be similar to salesforece.com and sync.com though we are looking to have only 15 pages total. We are happy to provide a budget for stock images and illustrationsProvide training on updating and maintaining the site.

Website Development

Clear Directions Virtual Solutions is a growing virtual agency that consists of virtual assistants, graphic designers, branding experts, web designers and more. The company was previously a sole proprietorship owned by Alyssa Burgoyne. Since the team has grown I have decided it's time for us to have a website that properly reflects that. I have experience in building WordPress websites but do not have the time to do so. The website will be build with WordPress using the Elementor builder. I have a wireframe that was built by one of my designers so the appearance of the website is already set. I would like to work with a student or students to:Develop the written copy for the websiteSource high quality graphics to use on the websiteBuild the structure of the website in the back endConnect newsletter sign up forms to MailerLite. Move blog content over from my previous websiteTest the website on both mobile and desktop versionsI am available to work 1:1 with students to develop the site and answer questions.

Website Update & Development

We would like to update and refresh our website as we expand our business. We would like to work with students to identify trends, review competitor / comparable websites, make recommendations on improvements, and refresh our website for us. Students should be prepared to:Identify trends and review competitor sites / those in comparable industries. Create a design proposal and recommendation for improvements. Update / refresh our existing website, with our assistance in providing content and copy.Suggest other areas of our web presence where we can improve! We are dynamic and small team, that is looking to up our web presence. We are open to new ideas and concepts, and enjoy working with students who bring fresh perspectives. We ourselves, are not website developer experts, and so are looking for an individual who can take what we have today, recommend some changes, and have a meaningful impact.
