Lodestar — homepage

(About this design)

Lodestar is built for consultancies that guide students into competitive universities: admissions mentors, study-abroad advisers, tutoring and test-prep practices. It gives a small team the presence of a much larger firm.

The homepage carries the proof a parent needs before they book a call: the students you've placed, the mentors who will work with them, how the process runs, what each plan includes, and the questions every family asks. Every plan links straight into a consultation form with that plan already selected.

Beyond the homepage it ships the parts consultancies usually bolt on later: a careers page with role listings and a multi-step application with CV upload, a blog, and a product page that sells a downloadable guide through Stripe, with the payment verified on the server before the download appears.

All copy lives in one content layer, so your team can change words without touching layouts. Forms and checkout are safe to launch before they're connected: they show a clear message instead of failing.
