Courtney Quinn and Brandon Groce Help Will on a Whim Rethink His Website
Season 5, Episode 1
YouTuber Will Humphrey – known for his engaging WillOnAWhim channel – has got a lock on telling great stories and sharing hair care tips for people with natural hair, like himself. He also wants to sell merch to his followers (half a million subscribers on YouTube alone) and use the funds to support kids in foster care, having been raised that way himself. However, his website is functional but sparse, and doesn’t properly represent Will’s brand, energy, and purpose. The challenge then is how to help Will find a vision to design a more effective website.
