Website & Branding
Making your business visual
Making your Passion business visual
You want to start your own business, but can’t figure out the tech?
You want to have your own website, but even the thought of it seems like a mega mountain to climb. Where do you even start? Not to mention the time it takes to figure it all out, the time that you should be spending on actually creating your business!
I totally get it!
Does this sound familiar?
You are longing to live life under your own terms
9-5 mentality is not for you, you want something more! You want to change the way you live your life, you want more freedom, time and power to live on your own terms!
You are overwhelmed with the technical aspects related to building your own website
You want to start building your passion into a business, but you feel overwhelmed with everything it takes to start it up. Website, hosting, plug-ins, content, branding, social media… it just sounds like ten jobs all in one.

What they say
Testimonials
What do some of my recent clients say about the way we worked together to kick-start their Passion projects?
“Kaisa stands for passion, authenticity, loyalty, transparency, integrity and enabling others. She helped me clarify my vision and business model, and to stay clear in times of doubt and overwhelm. She provided for a very educative and fun process!”
“There are so many different elements involved in building an online presence, but with the help of Kaisa it was such a fun process. She helped me clarify my ideas and to structure it into a content I can be proud of.”
For your questions
Questions & Answers
What do I need to deliver?
As soon as you book your project, I will send you a Brand Questionnaire which will get you thinking about the personality of your brand. We need to lock down the visuals aspects before the building of the website can start.
What you will also need to deliver is the website copy (the text for your website), as well as any specific images you’d like to use (pictures of you).
I will guide you in the making of the website text with an easy template, you’ll just have to fill in answers to questions and I’ll take care of the rest. I will also guide on what kind of images work the best, what to look out for etc.
How long is the process
The process depends a lot on you, and how clear you are with what you want, but usually we are done in 1-2 months. If you have everything ready (your homework, content, pictures, etc), the process is done closer to the 1 month.
I don’t work with many people at the same time, which means I work intensively with you.
What is the revision process like?
This is a collaboration between you and me, so we’ll do this together and in iterations.
We will first start with the visuals, aim and structure for your website. I will guide you to deliver the text for your website, as well as the images.
You will have access to view the work in progress, and we’ll do up to 3 iterations rounds to make sure you are happy with the results!
What platform do you use?
For hosting I recommend Dreamhost.
For the website I use WordPress platform, and a Divi theme. Divi is a very modern, intuitive theme to use, and you will be easily able to do any updates by your self later on.
Can I pay in instalments?
When we start working together, you will need to pay 50% of the fee, and the remaining 50% before we finish.
Do you also help market and sell my website?
No, marketing is currently not part of my packages.
How soon can we get started?
It depends on two things. First, the length of the waiting list (usually 2-4 weeks). Second, how fast you are able to deliver the documents / content needed.
If you need to get started sooner, get in touch and let’s see what we can do to get you up and running as soon as possible!
How do you handle hosting?
You need a spot on the internet where your site will be hosted. This is an ongoing service (usually about 100 EUR / year), which is not included in my price. It’s important that you have access to this yourself, and full control over it.
My services will kick-start your passion project, but you have to take it from there. Meaning, I will not be involved in hosting the site for you.
What I will do, however, is help you set up the hosting with a recommended reliable hosting provider, so you don’t have to worry about this. And then for the rest of your journey you are directly linked to the hosting provider, no middle-(wo)man needed 🙂
Will my site be SEO optimized?
Yes, Search Engine Optimization is included, and I will provide you with some tips on how to SEO your blog as well going forward.
How about updates and maintenance?
During our project I will set everything up for you, and I will make sure that you will have a working website which is easy to maintain. Once we are finished, we will have a how-to session where I will show you how to update and maintain your site.
Plus, you will get manuals and other training material from me on how to maintain your site.
Additionally, you will have free support for 4 weeks after the project is finished (max 2 hours a week), and I will keep a back-up of the original website (as delivered on the day of handover) for one year.
Should you need the original website files (as delivered on the day of the handover) after more than a year of handover, I charge an archiving fee of 100 EUR.
After the 4 weeks I am available for tech questions and maintenance issues related to the website (so not hosting related issues), just ask about my maintenance and support package!
Do you work with international clients?
Yes, all you need is a working wifi and we can hang out!
