Guest’s Background:

Simon Kelly is a Melbourne based website consultant, designer and web developer that helps businesses get better results from their websites. He helps businesses generate more leads and more revenue through their websites.

He believes that websites are key to a successful digital strategy and he sees many businesses failing with their marketing due to a website that is outdated, hard to navigate and does not generate leads.

That’s where his focus lies – on creating websites that are easy to use, gorgeously designed and work hard to generate leads and sales every day.

Specialities:

One of his key speciality areas is with hotels, motels and venues that he helps improve booking rates, reduce third party booking fees, and increase website exposure.

Another speciality area is with eCommerce websites, working with site owners to optimise their website for lead capture and sales.

His Process:

To achieve success, he starts with a detailed discovery process. This leaves no stone unturned as they get to the core of what makes the business unique and who the ideal customers are.

He then develops a digital strategy blueprint that outlines how to achieve goals with a focus on the website as the hub of this strategy.
