Will people get the message? Aesthetics?

Hello there forum,

Working on @messengersell website for launch during September:

https://messengersellwebsite-staging.herokuapp.com/

The idea behind MessengerSell is an e-Commerce platform specially designed for selling within social networks.

Still working on it, but knowing if you guys get that☝️idea from the landing page will definitely help knowing if we are going in the right direction.

Thanks a lot for your time in advance!

    Seems like this space has a lot of potential and opportunity!

    Things that come to mind:

    1. Your existing home page (https://www.messengersell.com/) has a much better hero image compared to the staging version you shared. The text shadow turns me off and does more harm than good, readability wise (IMO). The overall effect makes for a lot of visual noise. While the photo of a person using a device is a good fit for your product, consider a different image? Perhaps a darker one?
    2. The logo in your staging site is not visible. Consider doing something like this on scroll: https://codepen.io/sonorangirl/pen/XmRBjq
    3. From your new staging content (and digging around a little) I am understanding that your product is about selling via chat platforms. Correct? If yes, it's definitely being communicated. However, I think it can be simplified and more direct. Something more along the lines of "Sell your products with chat" or similar.
    4. The main CTA buttons shoot you down to the footer of the page for sign up. I would add a heading to the footer section that reinforces the CTA button text and maybe another sentence explaining what I would be signing up for.
    5. Lastly, (this was also recommended to me for mylistings) consider adding or moving your signup form higher up on the page. Perhaps in your hero section below your intro heading and paragraph.

      Amazing feedback Andrew, pretty thorough!!!

      Thanks for the image and logo tips, definitely looking at it!

      CTA actions are still not connected to the real sections, but we will take into account putting the sign up form upper in the flow as you mention.

      Thanks a lot!!!
