Your landscapes transform properties across the Iowa City corridor. Your website should reflect the same level of craft. This proposal outlines exactly what I've built for Fiddlehead Gardens and how we launch it.
When a homeowner in Iowa City searches for a landscape designer, your Squarespace site is what they find. For many of them, the impression it leaves doesn't match the quality of your work.
The current site uses a generic Squarespace template that doesn't reflect the premium, boutique nature of your design-build work. It looks like every other small business site.
Services are listed as a single bullet-point list with no detail. A homeowner considering a $30K+ patio project needs more than a checklist to feel confident choosing you.
Your best transformations are hidden in a flat image gallery with no context — no project descriptions, no before/after storytelling, no way to showcase the scope of your work.
The contact flow sends visitors to an external Google Form. There's no phone number prominently displayed, no click-to-call on mobile, and no clear path from "interested" to "consultation booked."
No meta descriptions, no schema markup, no location-specific content. You serve Iowa City, Coralville, North Liberty, and Cedar Rapids — but Google doesn't know that from your site structure.
Over 60% of local searches happen on mobile. The current layout doesn't prioritize mobile users — no click-to-call buttons, slow image loading, and navigation that requires too many taps.
Custom-designed for Fiddlehead Gardens. Fast, modern, built to turn Iowa City homeowners into consultation bookings — not just admire your photos and leave.
Built from scratch to reflect the boutique, high-craft identity of Fiddlehead Gardens. No templates — a design as intentional as your landscapes.
Project showcases with categories — Hardscape, Outdoor Living, Native Gardens — so homeowners can see exactly the type of work they're looking for.
Separate, detailed pages for Design, Installation, and Maintenance — each with clear descriptions and calls-to-action that guide visitors to book.
Phone number in the header, click-to-call on every page, mobile-optimized layout. Your next client can call you in one tap from any page.
Real reviews from Julie, Doug, Katy, and Kristi — displayed prominently to build trust with new visitors instantly.
Proper meta tags, location-specific content for Iowa City, Coralville, North Liberty, and Cedar Rapids. Structured to rank for "landscape design Iowa City."
No hidden fees. No monthly lock-in. You own everything I build. Unlike Squarespace — where you're renting a template — this site is fully yours.
One-time fee for a site that's already built and ready. 50% to kick off revisions, 50% when it's live on your domain. No recurring platform fees — you stop paying Squarespace the day we launch.
30 minutes. We walk through your goals, review the demo, and align on any changes you'd like. No cost, no commitment.
Your feedback applied — copy tweaks, image swaps, layout adjustments. The site already exists, so we're refining, not starting from scratch.
You review on desktop and mobile. We make final adjustments. Every detail locked in before launch day.
Domain connected, site live, Squarespace cancelled. I handle everything — you just share the new link.
The site is already built. Most projects launch within 3–5 business days from kickoff.
Reply to my email or give me a call. No pressure, no hard sell — just a conversation about giving Fiddlehead Gardens the online presence it deserves.
This proposal is valid for 30 days from April 13, 2026.
