Digital Presence Foundations

Bring your website, social channels, listings, and customer touchpoints together around one clear audience and next step.

What you’ll learn

  • Describe the audience and need you serve.
  • State your value in plain language.
  • Choose one useful action for a ready visitor.

Start with the person you serve

  • Describe one real audience group in plain language.
  • Name the problem, need, or task they bring to you.
  • List the words they might use when looking for help.

Clarify your value

  • What do you provide?
  • Who is it for?
  • What useful difference can a customer expect? Avoid promises you cannot prove.

Choose a primary action

  • Decide what a ready visitor should do: understand an offer, contact you, book a conversation, or explore a resource.
  • Make that action easy to find and explain what happens next.

Map the journey

  • Discovery: where might a person first encounter you?
  • Evaluation: what proof or information helps them decide?
  • Action: what is the next step, and is it clear on mobile?

A 20-minute presence audit

  • Write your audience and value statement in one sentence each.
