Project Overview

When I first received the Catalysts Studio project, the website was about 30% complete. The goal was straightforward: finalize the design in Divi to match Audette’s creative vision. Since the design was still subject to her approval, I focused on refining and implementing her ideas while remaining open to revisions.

Challenges and Considerations

Since the project was partially complete, I needed to pick up where the previous developer left off. Upon review, I found areas that required immediate attention—outdated plugins, broken image links, and no transitions set up to support smooth design continuity. This meant thoroughly assessing the site and noting all required updates to ensure a solid foundation moving forward.

Process & Approach

  • Project Assessment: To set realistic expectations, I first assessed the site’s current state and determined the necessary steps to bring it up to speed. This included fixing outdated plugins, ensuring images displayed correctly, and setting up transitions.
  • Continuous Communication: To make sure the site reflected Audette’s unique vision, I maintained an open line of communication, seeking feedback at every stage. Audette’s meticulous attention to detail added to the creative process, so we collaborated closely, allowing room for adjustments as we refined the design.
  • Revisions and Refinements: With her feedback, I adapted the design to align with her vision, making revisions until it met her high standards.

The Result

Audette was thrilled with the final outcome, which led her to extend our partnership by hiring me for ongoing website maintenance and additional tasks. Her satisfaction affirmed the collaborative approach, turning a partial project into a successful, complete website that fully represented her brand.
