Be Inspired
Trendy Meets Function
When Kati Corbett launched her new business in 2010, she wanted a fun yet functional website to go along with the fresh, new look of her salon. A savvy, young entrepreneur, Kati came to Pushing7 to build a dynamic business tool that could grow and change with her business.
Molly captured her vision with this edgy, modern design. A variety of textures in the background and header give the site depth. The two-column page layout has plenty of white space for updating content, while reserving a static space to the right for business hours and featured products. A custom registration system allows client to log in and book their own appointments—a convenience Kati insisted on for her smartphone-reliant customers. "I love that we delivered a site that is super trendy and fun, yet entrepreneurial in every sense of the word," Molly said.
Over time, Kati has chosen to integrate social media into her site to tell clients about upcoming events, special promotions and to spread the word about the salon. We added a Facebook feature to the site that allows users to "like" Be Inspired. Kati uses her blog to update followers on the most recent hair styling trends and products. She’s also asked Pushing7 to incorporate PayPal "buy now" buttons on several pages for fast, online payments.
"This is some of the most fun I’ve had designing a website!" Molly chirps. "Kati is a lot of fun to work with, and she really embraces the idea that her website is a tool to run her business."
