SMG Business Services came to Captivate Designs with a website that no longer reflected the quality, professionalism, or full scope of the financial services the company provides. The original website offered limited navigation, minimal service information, and messaging that did not clearly communicate who SMG serves, what makes the company different, or the value of its proactive approach to financial management. Captivate Designs redesigned the website to create a polished, professional, and user-friendly online presence. The new website clearly positions SMG as a proactive financial partner for service-based businesses while making it easier for prospective clients to explore its services, understand its approach, and schedule a free clarity call.
Before
After
Client: SMG Business Services
SMG Business Services’ original website did not adequately represent the company’s expertise or the breadth of its services.
The homepage relied heavily on a single visual layout with limited navigation and minimal supporting content. Services were presented as brief labels rather than clearly explained solutions, making it difficult for prospective clients to understand how SMG could help them.
The website also lacked clear audience positioning, compelling benefit-focused messaging, strong trust signals, and an intuitive path for visitors to explore the company’s services.
SMG needed a more sophisticated website that would clearly communicate its proactive approach to bookkeeping and financial management, strengthen its credibility, and turn more visitors into qualified inquiries.
Project Objectives
We redesigned SMG Business Services’ website around the questions prospective clients need answered before scheduling a consultation: What services does SMG provide? Who do they work with? What makes their approach different? And how can they help a business become more financially organized and profitable? We developed benefit-focused messaging that connects SMG’s services to the financial concerns business owners experience, including inaccurate records, tax stress, inconsistent cash flow, and uncertainty about business performance. The redesigned website now introduces SMG with a clear value proposition, organizes its financial solutions into distinct service areas, identifies the professionals it serves, and explains what clients can expect when working with the firm. Strong calls to action, testimonials, service-specific content, and a simplified consultation process help move visitors from initial interest to scheduling a free clarity call.
We repositioned SMG as a proactive financial partner that helps business owners pay themselves, prepare for taxes, understand their finances, and grow with greater confidence.
The new visual direction gives SMG a more polished and established presence while preserving the company’s existing brand colors and professional identity.
We replaced limited, service-based messaging with clear content that explains how SMG helps clients save time, reduce financial stress, stay compliant, and make informed business decisions.
The redesigned website gives prospective clients a better understanding of SMG’s primary solutions, including: Bookkeeping services Cash flow management Fractional CFO services Business and individual tax support
We added a dedicated “Who We Serve” section to demonstrate SMG’s experience supporting mental health professionals, medical and dental practices, attorneys and law firms, and women-owned businesses.
The new website emphasizes the qualities that distinguish SMG from traditional bookkeeping providers: proactive support, responsive communication, and the ability to explain financial information clearly.
A more complete and intuitive navigation system makes it easier for visitors to explore SMG’s services, learn about the company, read client testimonials, find answers to common questions, and request assistance.
Prominent invitations to schedule a free clarity call are strategically placed throughout the website, providing visitors with a clear next step at every stage of their journey.
Client testimonials were incorporated into the homepage and supporting pages to build trust and reinforce SMG’s professionalism, knowledge, responsiveness, and personalized service.
Spanish-language access was incorporated into the website, helping SMG serve and communicate with a broader audience.
The website was reorganized with clearer headings, more comprehensive content, service-specific pages, and location-focused messaging to help search engines better understand SMG’s services and market.
The redesigned website gives SMG Business Services a stronger and more credible online presence that better represents the quality of its services.

“I first connected with Nicole through a training session where she shared expert strategies for designing websites that actually speak to your customer base. As a relatively new business owner running a group travel company, I knew my existing Squarespace site wasn’t cutting it. The bounce rate was high, the site wasn’t holding people’s attention, and I just wasn’t seeing the engagement I needed to convert sales. Nicole helped me reimagine my website in a way that brought my brand to life. Using photos from past tours, she created a layout that was beautiful and also consistent with Refracting Africa's mission and values. She was incredibly patient and happy to complete any changes to the website to fit what I needed. I am ecstatic with the new digital home of Refracting Africa and can't thank Nicole enough for her redesign work. I highly recommend her.”
