you.
Homeward's Web Intensive offer combines a streamlined creative process and proven strategic approach with the conversion-driven visual framework of a template to build a stunning site that feels tailor made for your brand... at a fraction of the cost, in less than half the time.
SHOWIT TEMPLATE CUSTOMIZATION
LET'S GET STARTED
Templates tailored to feel like
You choose a template, we make it
yours.
As our friends at TONIC say, forget everything you think you know about templates. It's time to utilize the power of done-for-you design PLUS the eye of a skilled designer to custom-fit your website.
Think of it like the Chip and Jo treatment for your online home.
A tangible baseline
Many templates out there are already designed to perfection, built with pages and pages of stunning, customizable sections. Because we can see what's available, we can easily edit, refine, and make changes.
Benefits of Starting with a Template vs. Custom Design
acCelerated timeline
Because we're tailoring a template rather than starting from scratch, the timeframe can be cut down significantly. While custom sites with my studio typically take between 3-6 months, a template customization can happen in as little as one week.
LOWER INVESTMENT
You don't actually have to spend 5+ figures for a strategic website. For a fraction of the price of a custom website, you can have the site of your dreams and save thousands.

The Web Intensive Experience
Onboarding & Welcome
After your Intensive week is booked, you'll gather your images, content and anything else we'll need for success. I'll also have you fill out a client questionnaire to share your vision for your online presence — who you want to attract, what you value, and how you want your website to feel. If you'd like to chat more face-to-face, we can schedule an additional prep call!
Template Selection
You choose the perfect ShowIt template that most closely represents the website you've been dreaming about. Can't decide? No problem. I've curated a selection of my favorites, and have experience knowing how to customize any design to fit your style.
Customization Week
When our start date arrives, we'll spend a week or 2 working closely to transform your template into a powerful, stunning tool for your business — an online home that feels unique to you and your brand.
Launch & Celebrate!
One of the great things about starting with a template? The entire process is expedited. Web Intensives take 1-2 weeks from our start date. You'll have a beautiful new website you're actually proud to send potential clients to in no time!

What They're Saying
REVIEWS FROM WEB INTENSIVE CLIENTS
"Above and beyond my expectations."
— RACHEL GRIFFIN
"[I feel] so relieved and excited! Even though my previous DIY website was *fine,* I knew I needed to step my site up to truly elevate my brand. The new site absolutely goes above and beyond my expectations. If I'd opted to just customize the template myself...I think it would STILL be a work in progress (and look half as great)."
"It was such a stress reliever."
— BETHANY PASTORIAL
"I get comments all the time, literally all the time about how beautiful my website is, and I know that that is in huge, large part towards [Emma] and the collaborative process that we had together. It was such a stress reliever, honestly, to be able to hand that off and it come back and look beautiful and exactly what I had envisioned."
"Everything is perfect and better than we imagined!"
— DEIDRA FROEBEL
"We are so proud and excited to put our website and brand out there! The experience was A DREAM. I worked with other designers, and things are unorganized and not done on time. I love [Emma's] style of scheduling and how everything is laid out.
