Quotes:

[00:03:57] Alyssa: One of the things that was a takeaway for me was that so, so, so many of the provider bios, websites, and directory listings sounded almost identical. It was kind of annoying, to be honest with you, because everybody sounded the same. [00:04:18][20.9]

[00:09:22] Alyssa: Tell me why it's a different experience to sit with you. Tell me why someone would want to work with you. [00:09:28][6.2]

[00:12:52] Alyssa: I want you to connect with me what I uniquely am looking for. So dig a little deeper. Don't give me the surface Miss America answer on your service provider website. [00:13:07][15.0]

[00:16:58] Alyssa: I want you to just think about the mental space of the folks who are landing on your website and how you can thoughtfully connect with that experience and factor it into your decisions about how you craft language on your site.  [00:17:17][18.5]

[00:20:20] Alyssa: I think simple and clean tends to win over overly complicated or lots of different things going on. Simple, clear, clean. Simple language and simple website template. [00:20:32][12.3]
