Engage Wellness
As a freelance web designer, I had the exciting opportunity to work with wellness coach Deju Akanji, the founder of Engage Wellness, to build the business’s first website. Deju wanted to create a platform showcasing her services and events for current and potential clients. While collaborating closely with Deju, I focused on designing a user-friendly experience that would connect with visitors and encourage them to explore her offerings and join her activities. This project not only highlighted Deju’s skills but also captured her passion for helping people on their wellness journeys. With vibrant visuals and engaging content, we created a welcoming digital space that invites visitors to learn more and feel part of a supportive community.
Goal
Design Process
Deju reached out to me through a mutual acquaintance to explore the possibility of creating a website for her business. Having attended an Engage Wellness event, I was thrilled to take on the project of building her business’s first website. We kicked off the journey with a consultation meeting, where I delved into the objectives of the website and gained insight into Engage Wellness’s history, mission, values, services, and target audience. Armed with this valuable information, I crafted a website design plan and timeline for Deju. Once we were aligned, I began developing a digital prototype for her review, reflecting on our discussions. After making some adjustments to the prototype and finalizing the design, I transitioned to developing the site on WordPress using the Divi theme builder. Upon completing the development, I thoroughly tested the plugins and ensured the website’s responsiveness before presenting it to Deju for her feedback. She had a few adjustments in mind, which I promptly addressed. Once she was satisfied, I published the site for the world to see. As part of the handoff, I also provided Deju with training videos to assist her in managing the website independently after our collaboration.
