Coach Lechner: project overview
01

Background

Timothée Lechner is a personal trainer in Angers. A former soldier and vice-champion of France in Strongman, he coaches athletes of all levels. He wanted an energetic website that tells his story, sells his training programmes online and brings in appointments, with a free discovery session. The client had no written content to provide apart from his photos: copy, structure, shop, SEO and performance were all designed by Thortank.

Why it really works

Because a coach lives on credibility and availability. Here everything starts from his real photos and his background, the shop lets visitors buy a programme in a few clicks with the payment methods customers actually use, and an appointment is always one button away. All of it is custom built, lighter and faster than a theme full of plugins.

  • A site built from his real photos and his background
  • Buying a programme in a few clicks
  • An appointment one button away
  • A light, fast, well-ranked base
