Single-page website rebuild proposal for Raphael Love. Design polish, UX/UI and build of the Journey experience - credibility for referred prospects, not lead-gen SEO.

The
Situation

03 - Constraints

Why rebuild
now.

Cadence is a mid-size accounting and financial planning firm. The website exists for referred prospects who need to feel confident before they book - not for SEO lead generation. The current site is outdated, and cadence.com.au was unreachable during discovery (still down from our tooling at brief time), so a clean rebuild is the practical path.

01 · Current constraint

Legacy site no longer matches the brand or the Journey prototype. Domain/site was down on the discovery call, so we cannot lean on a lift-and-shift of the live front end. Content, strategy and IA are already owned internally.

02 · Rebuild, not strategy

Ven owns design polish, UX/UI and development of the single-page experience. We are not re-running strategy discovery, inventing a multi-page IA, adding a blog, or introducing a CRM.

03 · Upside

A modern credibility site that matches the Journey direction: sticky jump nav, client stories, directors, values, and a clear booking path - on a maintainable stack, with hosting/maintenance options and SEO preservation on go-live.

Path in plain terms: strategy and content are ready; the prototype locks direction. Ven designs and builds the polished single-page site, recommends Calendly for booking, and handles migration care (redirects + analytics) when the domain cutover is known.
