🚨 Here’s the reality:
Your CEO thinks your website is crystal clear.
But to your audience? It’s blurry as heck.

Here’s why:
You—and your C-suite—see your site through the lens of your expertise.
You understand the jargon, the insider terms, and the big ideas behind every word and image.

Your audience doesn’t.
They’re busy trying to figure out: “What do you even do?”

This disconnect happens all the time.
We assume clarity because we’re in the know.
But your market sees a website full of jargon and assumptions they can’t follow.

Want to fix it?
1️⃣ Speak human. Ditch the buzzwords. Keep it simple.
2️⃣ Get outside eyes. Ask someone outside your team: “What do you think this site is saying?”
3️⃣ Focus on outcomes. Your audience doesn’t care about your process—they care about what’s in it for them.

Because here’s the truth:
If your website isn’t clear to your audience, it doesn’t matter how “perfect” it looks to your CEO.

Next step: Review your homepage today and ask yourself: Would a fifth-grader get it?

Don't squander opportunities when remote teams meet in person. Energizing meetings are rare and hard to pull off. How can you create vibrant environments and get work done? Don't bother traveling if face-to-face is the same as remote - except you're in the same room.
