About this listen
Confusing websites don’t just frustrate visitors — they quietly erode trust. And for small teams, trust is your most valuable competitive advantage.
In this episode of Small Team, Big Impact, Grace and Marcus explore the psychology behind clarity, why humans instantly mistrust unclear websites, and how small teams like Fiona’s can fix trust-breaking messaging without a redesign.
You’ll learn:
• Why confusion creates doubt — and doubt leads to lost conversions
• The four trust signals every website must deliver within five seconds
• How clarity reduces anxiety and increases credibility
• Why messaging (not design) is usually the real problem
• Simple changes any SME can make this week to rebuild trust
This episode is perfect for small marketing teams, founders, and anyone who wants a clearer, more trustworthy website without spending thousands.
