Visitors slipping away before booking
Interested visitors dropping off before booking because the path wasn't clear.

Challenge
The practice was getting attention, but its website worked against it — unclear treatment explanation, a confusing path to booking, and friction that let interested visitors drift away before they ever reached a consult.
Interested visitors dropping off before booking because the path wasn't clear.
TMS poorly explained on-site, so visitors left without understanding the option.
A digital presence that didn't convey the credibility a medical treatment requires.
Too many steps and too little reassurance between interest and a booked consult.
Approach
Identifying where interest was leaking and what a clean path to consult should look like.
A new, credible digital presence built around clear TMS explanation and trust.
A streamlined booking path with reassurance at each step from interest to consult.
Tracking how visitors moved through the site and improving it to keep reducing drop-off.
Results
Funnel behaviour, drop-off, and consult enquiries were tracked in the practice's own platforms. Conversion rates and consult volumes are reconciled with the client and shared under NDA — not published here.

NextWave TMS — Digital presence rebuild is filed in the mental collection. The engagement record identifies digital presence as Web rebuild and funnel redesign as Conversion. Its published window is 7 mo. These details establish the scope available for public inspection. Read them alongside the client-specific material on this page when assessing whether the example relates to your own brief.
The page’s narrative and engagement record describe the work made public for NextWave TMS. Use the named scope to identify which service questions to explore further. A channel listed in an engagement record describes programme coverage; evidence of a particular result requires the corresponding report and reporting period.
Mental-health marketing should explain the services offered, who provides them and how an initial enquiry is handled. Distinguish a general educational explanation from information about a particular treatment. Keep the contact route straightforward and make the destination of enquiries clear to the intake team. Language and accessibility choices should support understanding. Clinical suitability and patient-specific recommendations belong with the treating professional.
Start with the task a visitor needs to complete. Finding a treatment, checking a clinician’s background, identifying a location and asking for an appointment are related tasks, but they need different information. Make those paths visible in the navigation and on the relevant service pages. A good brief includes the content and the operational destination of each action: who receives the form, what happens after submission and how a visitor obtains help when the first contact route fails.
Desktop screens help explain page hierarchy, but they cannot establish the quality of the mobile experience. Check readable text, tap targets, menu behaviour and form validation on a phone. Long doctor biographies and treatment descriptions should remain easy to scan without hiding important details in decorative interactions. When a collection shows both desktop and mobile artwork, compare the priority of information across them. The mobile layout should preserve useful content rather than simply shrink the desktop composition.
A launch review should cover content ownership, approved contact information, working forms, redirects and the URLs that search engines are expected to index. If a site replaces an existing website, map important old pages to appropriate new destinations. Check titles, descriptions, canonicals and internal links against the actual released URLs. Keep the review list separate from the visual approval: a polished mockup does not prove that a live booking form, analytics event or redirect behaves correctly.
Document the difference between a design study, a delivered website and a live capture. A design study explains a proposed experience. A live capture records what the site looked like when it was captured. Neither alone establishes an improvement in appointment conversion. For an outcome comparison, use a defined period and consistent event definitions, then reconcile digital enquiries with attended appointments where the practice can do so. Performance and accessibility checks should be repeatable after future content edits, not only at the first launch.
