Audit Your Website with Julie Nelson + The Rising Tide Society

This month we’re diving into one of the most overlooked—but most powerful—parts of your online presence: your website’s homepage. It’s your brand’s first handshake, elevator pitch, and trust-builder all rolled into one. Whether you're running a small business or leading a marketing team, your homepage sets the tone for your entire customer journey. So if it's unclear, cluttered, or outdated—it could be costing you leads, sales, or credibility without you even realizing it. Together we’ll make sure your homepage not only looks good, but actually works for the people using it and works for your business.

Bonus! This session is interactive. We’ll do live homepage audits with participants' website homepages that will provide a hands-on chance to see the process in action and get personalized insights you can apply immediately. 

Through the process of the live audits we’ll cover: 

• Why your homepage is your most important digital real estate
• Common mistakes that quietly drive visitors away
• What a homepage audit actually looks like (and why it matters)
• Simple tweaks that can boost trust, clarity, and conversions
• Real examples of what works—and what doesn’t
