The First Five — Start Here
Welcome to The First Five. You just made a decision most people talk about and never make. This course walks you through the five pages that make your website work.
Step 0
Under 3 minutes. Worth every second.
Before You Start
You don't need to be a designer. You don't need to be a developer. You don't even need to know what platform you're building on yet. You need a clear message, a structure that works and the guts to publish.
This course is built for people who finish. Each module gives you one deliverable. One page done. By the end of Module 4, you'll hit publish on a real website.
Step 1
Before you open Module 1, fill out the discovery questionnaire. This is how I build your Website Starter Pack — a personalized copy framework with headline options, your audience statement and your voice direction, all drafted before you write a single word.
It takes about 10 minutes. Your Starter Pack lands in your inbox before Module 1 opens. You're starting ahead.
→ Fill Out the Discovery FormOnce you're done, head to Platform Pathfinder — that's your first stop inside the course.
How this course is paced: Platform Pathfinder and Module 1 are open now. Module 2 unlocks after one week, Module 3 after two weeks, Module 4 after three weeks. You'll get an email each time a new module opens — this gives you time to actually build before you move on.
