The yacht listing industry hadn’t evolved since the ’90s. YachtWay is a modern, streamlined alternative, but we had to convince a deeply entrenched industry to try something new.
The goal: show yacht dealerships, shipyards, and brokers that upgrading wasn’t just possible, but essential.
📝 My Role
I wrote the full page copy from scratch, including headlines, value props, CTAs, stats, pricing tiers, and FAQs.
My goal: to build trust with a traditional audience while introducing something refreshingly modern and effective.
✍️ What I Created
Page structure and flow (content-first approach)
Hero copy and hooks to spark curiosity and credibility
Persona-driven sections that mapped directly to known pain points
Stats and facts to show industry-wide inefficiencies
Package pricing to simplify conversion
FAQs to preempt objections and reduce sales friction
Multiple CTAs for different levels of interest/readiness
🔧 Process
Started with a user persona crafted by the team (goals, frustrations, needs)
Wrote the copy first in Docs—this defined the structure and visual pacing
Design followed the content, then we collaborated in Figma to refine
Iterated with the designer, CEO, and sales team—both in meetings and async
Did final QA on the live build for consistency and polish
Later, we refocused the page slightly to target brokers more directly, but the overall structure and voice still hold strong for all our seller types.
📈 Outcomes
Became a key sales asset and landing page for lead generation
Shared widely in emails and marketing materials
Created a centralized place where potential sellers could learn about the platform and take next steps
Provided the first real expression of YachtWay’s voice, tone, and value prop in one place
💭 Reflections
I’m proud of how this copy helped launch the brand—it still feels exciting and relevant
I’d love to eventually see scroll depth and click data to keep optimizing the flow
This was one of those projects where strategy, design, and writing aligned beautifully
