Powers Group
Modern Website That Elevates Digital Presence and Drives Engagement
The Challenge
Powers Group, a well-established professional services firm, was operating with an outdated website that didn’t reflect their premium brand or expertise. Their digital presence was actively hurting their ability to attract new clients and showcase their capabilities.
Key Pain Points: - Outdated website design that looked unprofessional - Poor mobile experience (not mobile-responsive) - Slow page load times affecting SEO rankings - Difficult to update content (required developer intervention) - No clear calls-to-action or conversion optimization - Limited visibility in search results for key services
Business Impact: Potential clients were forming negative first impressions based on the outdated website. The firm was losing opportunities to competitors with more modern digital presences. The sales team reported that prospects often didn’t take them seriously until after an in-person meeting, when the website should have been building credibility from the first interaction.
