How to Write a Work With Me Page That Feels Like a Conversation

Updated: Aug 12

You’ve got the experience. The expertise. The results. Now it’s time to invite visitors into your world – to help them see what’s possible when they choose to work with you. And one of the most overlooked yet powerful ways to do that?


A well-crafted “Work With Me” page.


This page isn’t just a formality. It’s your virtual handshake, your first impression, and your moment to make someone feel seen, understood, and excited about taking the next step.


Let’s break down how to write a "Work With Me" page that doesn’t just explain what you do, but inspires someone to say, “Yes, I want this.”

Why This Page Matters More Than You Think


A generic services page can feel like reading a brochure. A great "Work With Me" page, though, feels like an invitation. It bridges the gap between curiosity and commitment.



Whether you’re a life coach, therapist, real estate agent, salon owner, or consultant, your clients are wondering the same thing: Can this person help me? Will they understand me? Will this be worth it?


Your job is to answer those questions – subtly, clearly, and confidently.



Start With What They’re Feeling


Before diving into services or credentials, start with empathy. Acknowledge where your visitor is right now.


  • For a health practitioner: “You’ve tried every solution, read every article, and still wake up feeling like something’s missing.”


  • For a coach: “You’re smart, capable, and successful on the outside– but quietly craving something deeper.”


This is the emotional doorway. If someone feels seen right away, they’re far more likely to keep reading.



Paint the Picture of What’s Possible


Next, let them glimpse what life looks like on the other side of working with you.

Use visuals. Not necessarily images, though that helps, but word pictures.


  • “Imagine waking up on a Monday actually excited to go to work again.”


  • “What if you could walk into every client meeting knowing exactly what to say - and leave with a signed contract?”


  • “Picture your team aligned, your stress down, and your energy up.”


Help them feel the transformation before you explain the process.



Establish Your Credibility, Casually


Now it’s time to build trust. Not with a long-winded resume, but with a few well-placed proof points. Think of this like weaving credibility into the conversation—not shouting it from a mountaintop.


  • “After 15 years designing custom homes, I’ve learned that a beautiful space starts with really listening.”


  • “My clients include boutique law firms, educational nonprofits, and wellness brands that want substance and style.”


This is especially important for professional service providers like attorneys or therapists, where trust is paramount but humility is key.



Explain How It Works (Simply)


Now that they’re leaning in, guide them through what working with you looks like. Don’t list 10-step processes or overwhelm with options.


Break it into 2–4 phases or simple steps:


What to do now:


  • Reach out using your form, calendar link, or contact info.


  • Expect a personal reply within 1–2 business days.


What happens next:


  • A quick discovery call or consultation.


  • We decide if it’s the right fit.


  • You get a personalized plan and timeline.


Even high-end clients want to know what’s coming. This builds comfort without sacrificing exclusivity.



Add Social Proof (Strategically)


This isn’t the spot for dozens of reviews – that belongs on a testimonials page. But including 1–3 client voices here adds instant authority.


  • A quote from a salon client who finally felt heard after years of bouncing around.


  • A short note from a nonprofit leader about how your website helped them double donations.


Use real, emotionally honest feedback. If you can quote their before and after state, even better.



Make the Call to Action Clear (And Natural)


This is not where you say "Contact Me" in 10pt gray text at the bottom. It’s where you gently, confidently invite the next step.


  • "Ready to turn the page on burnout? Let’s talk."


  • "Curious what’s possible for your brand? Click below."


  • "Schedule your call—I’d love to hear your story."


Give the button some personality: “Let’s Begin” or “Book My Call” works better than “Submit.”



Consider a Short FAQ


If you find yourself answering the same pre-call questions – like what’s included, how long it takes, or whether they need to prepare anything - add a short FAQ beneath your CTA.


This helps reduce friction and gently filters the right leads.



Optional: Add Personality-Driven Copy


Depending on your brand tone, you might also infuse this page with voice-driven asides, humor, or quirk.


  • A spa might say: “Warning: side effects may include deep relaxation, actual joy, and strangers asking what’s changed.”


  • A real estate agent might quip: “I’ll find you the house you didn’t even know you wanted – but won’t make you tour 87 you don’t.”


Use sparingly, but don’t be afraid to sound human.



A Quick Note on Design


If this page reads beautifully but looks like a wall of text, you’ve lost the game.

Break it up:


  • Use short paragraphs and subheadings


  • Add bullet points, bold text, and quotes


  • Leave plenty of white space


  • Use a professional, on-brand headshot


And keep the mobile version in mind – most users will be reading on their phones.



Final Thought: Speak to One Person


This page isn’t about you. It’s not even really about your services. It’s about your visitor – the one sitting on the fence, trying to decide if they’re ready.


Write to that one person. The one who’s been burned before. Who wants real change. Who’s looking for someone to trust.


If you can make them feel seen and supported – before they’ve even spoken to you – you’re already halfway there.
