Project Overview: I'm launching a hyperlocal print advertising business called The Local Card in Brooklyn, NY. I need a clean, warm, professional Wix website built that allows small business owners to learn about the concept and reserve and pay for an ad spot directly on the site. This is a simple site — 4 pages — but it needs to look elevated and boutique, not templated or corporate. Payment collection is essential so Wix Payments or Stripe integration experience is required. I will need this completed by July 9th. Pages Needed: Home — What The Local Card is, who it's for, neighborhoods currently served, and a clear call to action to reserve a spot How It Works — Simple 3-step explanation for small business advertisers (I will provide copy) Reserve Your Spot — Fixed price payment page, $400 per ad spot, connected to Wix Payments or Stripe Contact — Simple contact form Design Direction: Warm, neighborhood feel. Think independent bookstore meets local farmers market meets boutique print magazine. Clean typography, intentional, not busy. This should feel like it was made with care for a specific community — not like a template out of the box. I will provide: Logo Brand colors All written copy Any photography or graphics needed Requirements: Wix experience specifically (please share relevant portfolio examples) Experience setting up payment collection on Wix Mobile optimization Domain connection One round of revisions included To Apply Please Include: 2-3 examples of Wix sites you have built, ideally for small or independent businesses Confirmation that you have set up payment collection on Wix before Your proposed timeline A note on fit: I'm a Brooklyn-based entrepreneur who cares about design. I'm easy to work with and communicative, and I'm looking for someone who takes pride in their work and can match the aesthetic vision I'm describing. If that's you, I'd love to hear from you.
