Overall looks good. Can you add a few โ€˜customer reviewsโ€™ even if you make them up? With no visible reviews or acknowledgements of people/companies you work with looks a little untrustworthy.

Hi rem4ik4ever :)

First comment: Unclear value statement at readers' first glance. You don't say it til the very end, "Unlock Efficient Booking!". E.g. check this out: https://www.reddit.com/r/SaaS/comments/17tjr3i/i_analyzed_100_hero_sections_of_mostly_saas/

Behold CalWise, the apex where ambitious UI design aspirations collide head-on with the charming simplicity of an inaugural '90s HTML endeavour. Donning a colour scheme that boldly declares, "Our software solutions are as diverse as a post-Easter sale," this platform stands as a monument to the boldness of 'Calculated' design ventures.

Here, minimalism is not just a design choice; it's a credo, echoing the ethos of Marie Kondo in its purest digital form, sparing only the essential 'Contact Us' as a lifeline to the user. Indeed, CalWise redefines versatility, akin to a Swiss Army knife forged for the digital age, albeit equipped with the universal utility of a spork.

And yet, its rapid load times are a testament to the uncluttered brilliance that underpins its framework. Persist, CalWise, for even the most uncut gem matures into brilliance through relentless polishing and unfaltering vision.

Cmon you can roast it ๐Ÿ˜… thanks

This site looks like something Tim Berners-Lee would have written while giving birth to the WWW in 1989.

Ok, I suck at roasts. Honestly nice looking site. I know many sites donโ€™t list pricing, but people might be leery and confused not having any indication whether this is $10/month or $1000/mo white glove service. Or I might have skipped the blurb about pricing altogether.

Hey man, your landing page looks pretty good, I like the colors and layout. The only thing that I'd recommend is to add why you are the best alternative to the all numbers of options out there.

I have created a landing page template with the best guidelines and frameworks that can help you achieve this - let me know and I can send it your way! Overall, great job :)

Awesome thanks for the feedback! Can you share your template example?

HERE I COME!! Ah, the landing page of CalWise. A perfect target for my scorching critique. Let's dive in, shall we?

  1. CalWise, huh? More like Cal-Not-So-Wise. Your website design is as inspiring as watching paint dry.

  2. Oh, look at all those testimonials! It seems like the only people impressed with your product are your own employees pretending to be satisfied customers. Bravo!

  3. "Booking had never been simpler." Well, that's a bold claim, considering your landing page is more confusing than a Rubik's Cube in a tornado.

  4. Ah, the classic "Amazing people love our product" statement. I guess you forgot to mention that these "amazing people" are actually your imaginary friends.

  5. Can't believe you didn't know about CalWise sooner? Well, Naska Silva, you must have lived under a rock, or perhaps you were just blessed with an ignorance so profound it deserves its own Nobel Prize.

  6. Data science tutoring and loving CalWise? Well, Ali Cholponbaev, I hope your data science skills are more impressive than your taste in booking platforms.

  7. Ah, Dan Shamkeev, you claim your clients love the simplicity of the booking process. I wonder if they'd feel the same if they knew how much of a headache your website is.

  8. Sezim Oskonbaeva, as a small business owner, you have plenty to worry about. But fear not, because CalWise is here to add one more thing to your never-ending list of concerns.

  9. Angelina Lee, your accounting business is so much better without scheduling and payment worries? Well, congratulations on finding CalWise, the silver lining in an otherwise mundane existence.

  10. Arthur Churikov, comparing CalWise to sliced bread? I didn't realize booking platforms had become the pinnacle of human innovation. How utterly underwhelming.

  11. Rustam Bakybaev, create events and see who's coming. Wow, what a revolutionary concept. I'm sure no other platform in existence offers such groundbreaking features.

OKAY THATS ENOUGH

Here is my advise you may need :p

  1. Revamp that lackluster website design. Make it visually appealing and user-friendly. You want potential customers to stick around, not run away in horror.

  2. Trim down the testimonials. Instead of bombarding visitors with repetitive praise, choose a select few compelling stories that truly highlight the benefits of your product.

  3. Simplify your messaging. Clearly communicate the value and simplicity of your booking platform without drowning visitors in unnecessary details. Keep it concise and compelling.

  4. Showcase real customer experiences. Instead of relying on fabricated testimonials, feature genuine feedback and success stories to build credibility and trust.

  5. Streamline the booking process. Ensure that the user experience is intuitive and seamless, eliminating any unnecessary steps or confusion along the way.

  6. Invest in strong branding. Develop a memorable and professional brand identity that sets you apart from the competition. Your landing page should reflect this unique personality.

  7. Optimize for mobile. In this digital age, people are accessing websites from their phones more than ever. Make sure your landing page is fully responsive and looks great on all devices.

  8. Consider incorporating interactive elements. Engage visitors by adding interactive features like a demo video or live chat support to provide immediate assistance.

  9. Highlight the key selling points of your platform. Clearly communicate the benefits of using CalWise, such as time savings, streamlined payments, and easy event management.

  10. Continuously gather feedback and make improvements. Pay attention to user reviews and suggestions, and use that feedback to enhance your platform and address any pain points.

Okay thats all take or leave it !
