About Johnny Hatzakis

Websites and marketing your business online can be confusing. There's a minefield of contradictory information and different takes on the 'right way' to do things. It's tough when you don't know what to look for. Trust me I had no idea either when I started out after quitting my job as a driverless car engineer nearly 5 years ago.It's so easy for businesses to fall into the trap of mediocrity, to settle for Wix or Squarespace websites (run!), or to hire a cheap web designer. They soon find out 6 months down the line that their website is built on sand or doesn't generate sales or that their cheap freelancer has disappeared. (If that's you, call us right now - we can help!) My advice would be to find an agency partner that actually knows what they are doing. One who will do the legwork to know your business and industy inside out and build a marketing strategy, a plan and a website that actually delivers business results. Your agency partner should build to best practices (accessibility and semantics matter you know!) so that your website scales with your business and doesn't break because you had to make a change or an update (looking at you, Elementor).We managed to build a web agency that does all of these things. And that's why we're great. We help cut through the noise in the crazy world of online marketing and generate real results for businesses.Btw, we don't do brochure sites or one-pagers here - if that's you please find someone else (sorry not sorry). We're looking to work with businesses who have ambition to grow, scale and reach more customers. And you can do that when you have an agency partner you can trust. That's us.More leads and more sales is one call away for your business. Less stress and less technical overwhelm is one call away for your business.So, do your business a favour and call today for a 1:1 website blueprint session here: https://calendly.com/overwriteagency/blueprint
