What makes a great website?
There’s no silver bullet for creating a great website. But, if you stick to these 7 principles when creating your next blog, ecommerce site, portfolio or business website, you’ll find creating a good website is easier than you think.
Clear purpose – Make sure you know what your site is for, and importantly, not for
Clear audience – Identify who your site is aimed at. Do you know what your audience looks like? What they enjoy? Do for work? How old they are? What other sites they use? All of this information, and more, is crucial for building the best website.
Straightforward navigation – Is it easy to work out how you get around your site?
The right style – Your site should be unique and distinctive, whilst still appealing to your users
High quality imagery – If your images aren’t good, your site won’t look good, either
The right fonts – Make sure your font matches the general style, and is legible
The right words – Your site can look amazing, but if none of the words make sense, design won’t matter
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
We want to know what you do and why you do it.
What's your competitive advantage?
What's your objective?
What have you done so far and are you aware of how it has worked - have you tracked and do you have metrics.
What do you love most about your job?
Marketing is about relationships and the way we work is always with the goal of building relationships. People buy from people they trust and they trust people they are in a relationship with?
We love being able to support a client towards achieving their true goals. It's just as important to us as it is to our clients.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Marketing Guardians was started by Melissa and Stephen Ramkissoon and was born out of a desire to build companies through creativity, story, strategy and great marketing. It was born out of a desire to build teams that become a second family, where people from diverse backgrounds and stories, can find home, fulfillment, respect, appreciation and support in a way that they never knew they could expect out of a job. It was born out of a desire to pursue marketing through relationships, where a client becomes a friend.
What’s in the name? Well, we think every company deserves protection, more-so, every company has a brand and that brand should be guarded, protected and fought for. So let’s define it, your brand refers to the perception customers have about that product or service. As a marketing agency, we want to protect and build your brand. Our logo contains a Phoenix. The Phoenix symbolizes a rebirth or rise from the ashes as a better stronger version and that’s what we want for all the clients we’ve ever partnered with – to see them evolve into an even better version than they previously envisioned. So the name and logo represent us fighting for your brand as we protect the process of your company’s growth into its best version yet.
Why should our clients choose you?
We help established companies nail brand story strategy. You’re looking for more sales, more visibility, more leads, more brand clarity – getting your story down paves the way. Your brand story is the “soul” of your business and your greatest marketing asset. If this makes us a B2C or B2B corporate storytelling company, then great. We use your story to make your brand memorable, as our mission is to build inspired trust between you and your audience.
We’ll never lead with solutions that you should pursue, instead, we lead with active listening and inquiry. We listen to you and your story, your successes, the work that is meaningful and excites you and then to your pain points. We listen first to connect, and then to create new possibilities.
We want to create a marketing presence that influences, a brand that connects, and collateral that converts. – We’ve combined strategy, creativity, technology, messaging, and design & development into a streamlined process specifically for small businesses. No fluff and complications, just a company poised for growth.
