    From Classroom to Client: How Shawn Haymaker Counseling Earned a Perfect 100 Website Score 🌟

    Back in June 2024, I had the honor of presenting a digital marketing workshop for the Ivy Tech Entrepreneurship Program led by Steve Thrash. I spoke with a cohort of small business owners, creatives, and students working through the final course in their Entrepreneurship Certificate.

    That Zoom call planted a seed.

    One of the students, Shawn Haymaker, reached out afterward with an idea: to rework his private practice website and elevate the way he serves the Indianapolis community through art therapy and mental health counseling.

    🔗 A Collaboration with Purpose

    Over the next several months, Shawn and I worked together to transform his online presence. We:

    Our goal wasn’t just a better website. It was a more authentic and useful resource for Shawn’s clients and community.

    🎉 A Perfect 100 Website Score

    Last week, Michelle Maddox, a marketing consultant working with Shawn, ran the site through her regular web audit tools. What she found surprised even her:

    “This is a first for me! I run all new customers’ websites through a few website grading systems to get a pulse on where we are at. I have never seen a perfect 100 when I do this.

    Congrats to Dave, you’re doing a great job!”

    Thanks, Michelle — that email made my day!

    🎓 From Entrepreneur Class to Client Success

    Shawn’s story is one of the most rewarding kinds of collaboration I get to be part of. He didn’t just hire me to build a site. He brought intention, creativity, and a clear vision for how his digital presence could align with his mission as a therapist.

    And it all started with a single workshop.

    This is why I love teaching. And it’s why I stay rooted in projects that serve real people with real stories.
