Projects
Business Problem: The founder had this great idea for lead qualifier software but wasn’t sure how to present it to salespeople through a website.
Outcome: We came up with a website concept that showcases Getlinc.AI’s unique selling points (USP), focusing on the features and how the software can make salespeople’s lives easier.
Impact: We successfully translated the Relate.so founder's idea into a landing page that clearly communicated why users should choose Getlinc.AI.
Learning: Learnt to make a website concept directly from no code design tool which is Framer. And being flexible to client's needs where in this case I need to put framer website into Figma designs.
