And not just physically stunning. Scroll-stopping type of stunning.
A website that’s an extension of how you treat your clients—thoughtfully, intentionally, and honestly you.
Your clients are already looking for you online and you *probably* needed a stunning website…yesterday.
we build showit websites based on this belief:
I’ve met creatives who’ve spent THOUSANDS of dollars over a website their clients couldn’t see—because they’re too embarrassed to publish or it’s hard to read the text on the website.
It made me tick (#opinions). I saw creative entrepreneurs who were itching to get their work out into the world only to be hindered by websites they didn’t resonate with...or even log into.
After I left my job designing a community app for a social enterprise startup, I built this boutique Showit web design business because I saw the problem in the creative world: websites that looked “pretty” but lacked personality and intentionality.
my name’s alyssa—
I set out to help by designing this solution:
Our bread and butter is working with business owners just like you…
…the ones ready to be seen and *eager to serve their people with their work (and create a sustainable and profitable business as a by-product).
I took a leap outside of my introvert comfort zone.
Because changing people’s lives through what you can offer isn’t sleazy—it’s service.
Around here, I’m all for serving before selling.
I believe in designing with care, not just conversion in mind.
Design that considers your people and how they’re able to navigate through your website brings in good business.
Boom. That’s it. That’s the tweet.
I don’t believe you need to be tied down to a web designer every time you need to change your website. You should able to (re)decorate and update as necessary.
That’s why we provide you with resources to customize your website. And Showit has awesome resources, too.
I don’t believe in “modern”. We design for timelessness. And you know what never ages?
Your story. That’s why our websites are designed based on yours.
Also, readable text and colours that don’t hurt your eyes NEVER go out of style.
this is how we do it
(And my brother, too.)
But if I got to work with someone like you, I’d give Annie a big celebratory hug.
My days are packed between working my 9-5 and this boutique business, flying paper planes with my youngest brother or taking screen break walks with my yellow Labrador Retriever, Annie.
I live 30 minutes away from Vancouver, BC—on the shared, ancestral, and unceded territory of the Semiahmoo, Katzie, Kwantlen, and other Coast Salish peoples.
Truth?
How much time do you have? Jacob Collier, Eloise, John Mayer, Gabe Bondoc—we can be here all day.
The Good Place, The Office, Gilmore Girls, and almost anything on HGTV.
"God has created me to do Him some definite service. He has committed some work to me which He has not committed to another...He has not created me for naught. I shall do good; I shall do His work."
I'm good with names and remembering directions. (Take that, Google Maps. Just kidding, I need you.)
Outside at a park with a book. A "quiet" beach with a picnic blanket, some munchies, and good company also work :)
Most of the time, home-brewed coffee, double-double, or caramel macchiato from Starbs. When I want to ease into the morning, rice tea.

Head over to the CONTRAST template shop, pick out your new website, and download it instantly.
So we made that for you.
But sometimes you just need a good website base to get you started—one where you can insert your visuals/copy.
Truth: a well-designed custom website is expensive and web designers (us included) can be booked out for months.
