There’s a difference between building something to test an idea… and building something you know you’ll be using again and again.
One of my favorite examples is a sales page I designed for a client that her team has since been able to repurpose across other offers and launches.
We ended up calling it “the sales page that keeps on giving.” 😂
And that’s really the goal for me.
Not just to make something look good for this launch, but to build the design and systems in a way that makes the next launch, offer or update easier too.
Because once you know something is worth building, doing it well can keep paying you back long after the original project is finished.
That’s the kind of work I love building for my clients.
Funnels, websites + the systems behind them.

"The sales page that keeps on giving" is a great way to sell the value of systems thinking to a client who might otherwise just see it as a one-off design fee. Do you price that kind of reusable system differently than a standard one-off page?

Yeah, it really is. I usually build pages in a way that gives clients something they can keep working with, so I charge the same price. If they want to duplicate it, edit it, or reuse the structure for another offer later, they can. That’s just part of how I build.

That's a smart way to price it, you're not just charging for the page, you're charging for the fact that it keeps working after launch. Do clients usually get that distinction upfront, or is it something you end up explaining after they try to negotiate the fee down?

Not really. I just charge my normal rate for the page itself. The fact that it’s built in a way they can reuse later is simply part of how I work. And I honestly don’t get much pushback on pricing, so it’s not usually something I have to explain after the fact.
