You don’t need a rebrand.
(…I know, I know. That one stings a little 😅)

But hear me out:
Most of the time when you feel like your branding is “off”…
It’s not actually your branding.

It’s usually something like:

👉 Your pricing doesn’t match your value
👉 Your offers aren’t clearly defined
👉 Your systems feel messy behind the scenes
👉 Your focus is split across too many things
👉 Your consistency has been… questionable (respectfully 😅)

But instead of fixing those things…

Your brain goes:

“What if we just changed the logo?”
“Maybe new colours will make everything click?”
“A new vibe will fix it!”

This is what I call:
Procrasti-branding.

When rebranding feels more productive than doing the harder, more important work in your business.

And listen — I get it. I’ve been there.

At one point I was READY to rebrand everything.
New logo. New vibe. New aesthetic.

Thought that was the move.

But ya... It wouldn’t have fixed a single thing.

Because the real work looked like:

✔️ tightening my offers
✔️ getting clear on priorities
✔️ setting better boundaries
✔️ actually focusing on what moves the needle

(Not nearly as fun as picking fonts 😅)

A clear message will outperform a “pretty” brand all day long.

Now… are there times when a rebrand is the right move?
Of course.

👉 When your brand is actually confusing people
👉 When it no longer reflects what you do
👉 When your business has significantly evolved

But if that’s not the case…
A rebrand might just be a very pretty distraction.

So before you dive into a full brand overhaul, ask yourself:

Am I fixing the real problem…
or avoiding it?

And if you want a second set of eyes on your website/branding to figure that out…

☕️ I offer free coffee chats where we can look at what’s actually going on and what will make the biggest difference (without overcomplicating it).

You don’t have a motivation problem.
You have an “almost ready” problem.

It’s one of the sneakiest ways we keep ourselves stuck as business owners.

Because it feels productive…

👉 tweaking your website
👉 adjusting your fonts
👉 rewording your offer for the 17th time
👉 waiting until everything is “just right”

But none of that actually moves your business forward.

Tweaking is not momentum.

If your offer isn’t live…
You’re not getting feedback.
If you’re not getting feedback…
You’re not making sales.
If you’re not making sales…
You’re not learning what actually works.

So you stay in this loop:

“I’m almost ready”
“I just need one more change”
“I’ll launch after this”

Meanwhile… nothing is actually happening.

And I see this ALL the time with websites.

Someone will tell me:
“My site is basically done… like 99% done.”

Then I ask:
“Is it live?”

…and the answer is no.

Because sometimes it’s not actually about the website.

It’s about:
✔️ Not fully owning what you’re selling
✔️ Wanting everything to feel perfect first
✔️ Not wanting someone to say no
✔️ Staying in a space where it still feels “safe”

Launching something imperfect will teach you more in a week
than months of tweaking behind the scenes.

Also… your website is not a one-and-done project.
It evolves as your business evolves.

Your messaging gets clearer as your offers get better... and then guess what? Your confidence grows!

So waiting until it’s “perfect” before you launch?
That moment doesn’t exist.

If you’re sitting on something that’s almost ready right now…

This is your sign:

👉 Launch it
👉 Get it live
👉 Let real people interact with it

Then refine from there.

And if you want someone to help you go from
“almost ready” → “live and actually selling”…

☕️ I offer free coffee chats where we can look at what you’ve got and map out the simplest way to get it out into the world.

Your website might look good…
…but is it actually working?

Because here’s the truth most people don’t want to hear:
👉 A pretty website doesn’t equal a profitable website.

And if someone lands on your site and can’t figure things out in the first few seconds… they’re gone.

No second chances and no “they’ll come back later.”

Just… exit.

So before you start thinking you need a full redesign, new branding, or fancy animations…

Start here 👇

Your website should immediately answer 3 things:

1️⃣ What do you actually do?
Not in a clever way. Not in a vague “elevating your brand experience” way.
Clear. Simple. Obvious.

2️⃣ Is this for me?
People are scanning your site looking for themselves.
If they don’t feel seen → they won’t stay.

3️⃣ What should I do next?
If your call-to-action isn’t clear, people won’t take action.
“Book a call.” “Apply.” “Get started.”
It should be impossible to miss.

If your website isn’t doing those 3 things in under 10 seconds…
That’s your problem.
(Not your fonts. Not your colours. Not your logo.)

And this is where I see SO many business owners get stuck:

They keep tweaking design…
When what they actually need is clarity + structure.

Because your website’s job is to:
✔️ Build trust
✔️ Make things easy
✔️ Guide someone to the next step

That’s it.

If you’re not sure whether your site is doing that (and you’ve been staring at it too long to tell 😅)…
I’ve got you.

☕️ I offer free coffee chats where I’ll look at your site with fresh eyes and tell you exactly what’s working, what’s unclear, and what I’d fix first.

Hi! I’m Brittany 👋
If you’re new here, welcome.

I’m the owner of Empty Desk Solutions, a certified Podia Pro, Co-Founder of MarketingClub.ca and MortgageMarketingClub.ca and the person behind the websites, marketing ideas, and occasional behind-the-scenes chaos you see around here.

By day, I help business owners simplify their marketing so it feels clearer, lighter, and actually doable.

That usually looks like:
✨ designing Podia websites
✨ building email list growth systems
✨ helping people untangle their marketing strategy
✨ jumping into Zoom sessions to fix things together

But behind the business, I’m also a mom of four, 👨‍🚒wife, an ADHD entrepreneur with approximately 47 ideas at any given moment, and someone who is either covered in dirt from gardening, or running the kids to their various sports while simultaneously figuring out what your next big marketing idea should be ;)

This space is where I share:

• marketing tips
• website projects
• behind-the-scenes of client work
• lessons from running a business

And occasionally a bit of real life too.

If you’re building a business and marketing sometimes feels overwhelming…
you’re in the right place.

Say hi in the comments, I’d love to know what kind of business you run 💬

If you’re new here, this is what I actually do 👋

I help business owners simplify their marketing so it feels lighter, clearer, and a LOT less chaotic.

The people I work with are amazing at what they do… but their marketing sometimes feels like a never-ending to-do list.

So we fix that.

✨ Here’s how I usually help:

• Podia website design
Beautiful, strategic websites that actually turn visitors into customers. (and no I don't make you get on a call with me to reveal the price, it's right on my website if you want to check it out!)

• Email list growth systems
Using Facebook lead ads to bring new subscribers onto your email list (without waiting forever for organic growth).

• Hourly marketing support
When you just need another brain and a set of hands to help get things done.

• Live Zoom marketing sessions
Quick 30-minute working sessions where we fix things together.

If your marketing currently feels like:

“I know what I should be doing… I just don’t know where to start.”

You’re exactly the kind of business owner I love helping.

You can:

☕ Book a free coffee chat
💻 Explore my website packages
🧠 Or jump into a working session if you just need quick help

If your email list feels a little… quiet lately 👀 this might be why.

Yes, email. The thing everyone says is “dead” but somehow still converts better than almost anything else.

It’s consistent and algorithm-proof, and your warmest leads are already sitting there.

But only if what you’re sending is clear and worth opening.

Here are 3 quick wins you can knock out in 10 minutes:

1️⃣ Refresh your welcome email (ok this one might take longer than 10 minutes... but it's the most important one!)
When someone joins your list, do they instantly know:
• Who you are
• What you help with
• What to do next
• What they’ll get from being here

First impressions matter. A lot.

2️⃣ One CTA per email
Not 4 links. Not 12 buttons.
One clear next step.

Book the call.
Read the blog.
Hit reply.

Clarity = clicks.

If you want to pack MORE LINKS into your email, put them in a footer or far enough down that it doesn't distract from your main offer.

3️⃣ Fix one broken or confusing thing
Does your opt-in still deliver?
Are links pointing to the right place?
Is your bio from 2021? 😅

Remember, we are NOT rebuilding a funnel here or starting from scratch, we are just making small changes to what exists to clean it up.

Done > perfect. Always.

And real talk? Your hottest leads are already in your inbox. Let’s treat them like it. ✨

If you tweak your welcome email this week, tell me. I will absolutely celebrate you. 🎉

If your website still sounds like the 2022 version of you… we need to talk. 👀

Week 2 of my Spring Clean Your Marketing series is all about quick website wins. And no, we're not talking about a full redesign (although if you need that, you know where to find me *wink wink)... we're talking about a few simple tweaks that actually move the needle.

Your website is talking to potential clients 24/7.
Is it clear about what you want them to do next?

Here are 3 things you can fix in 10 minutes or less:

1️⃣ Update your main CTA
Pick ONE clear next step. Book a call. Download the guide. Buy the thing.
Clarity = conversions.

2️⃣ Add something recent for social proof
A fresh testimonial. A quick client win. A new feature.
People want proof this works now.

3️⃣ Fix 1–3 small annoyances
Broken links. Old photos. Random freebie that leads nowhere.
Tiny tweaks make your whole site feel more polished.

We’re refreshing, not rebuilding - PROMISE ME you're not rebuilding while you do the clean up process!

I don't believe you... pinky swear?

If you want quick eyes on your homepage (or any other page on your site), I opened a few more free 10-minute coffee chats this month ☕
Link’s in my bio to grab one.

And if you already chose your main offer from Week 1… make sure it’s obvious on your homepage. No scavenger hunts allowed. 🔥
