From Pain Cream Site to Multi-Product Digital Presence — in 48 Hours

In two days, we took clarksherbs.com from a single-product pain cream website to a fully repositioned multi-product platform — positioning Trevor Clarke not as a product seller, but as a clinical herbalist with a product line, a telemedicine practice, and clinical authority backed by Bastyr credentials and FDA-adjacent research.

Design System Pipeline — How Your Brand Stays Consistent

The Gap No One Else Is Filling

Our research confirms a critical finding: no herbal brand currently owns the neuropathy space. Penetrex dominates herbal pain but ignores neuropathy. Nervive (P&G) owns neuropathy but uses lidocaine. The intersection — herbal products specifically for neuropathy — is empty. Clark's Herbs has authentic credentials to claim it.

US Neuropathy Market — Addressable Patient Population

Why This Matters for the Roll-On Launch

20-30M Americans

Have peripheral neuropathy. 26.8% of adults over 70 are affected. The market is massive and underserved by herbal alternatives.

Trevor's Credentials

Bastyr graduate, adjunct faculty, published researcher, FDA Crossvine compound identification. No other herbal brand has this clinical authority.

Personal Story

4 years bedridden with neuropathy/fibromyalgia, healed by plants. This isn't marketing — it's Trevor's lived experience. Patients trust practitioners who understand their condition.

Open Decision Form →

1. Engagement Structure

How should we structure ongoing work? Project-based, monthly retainer, or phased approach?

Recommended: Retainer — leverages the infrastructure we already built.

2. Roll-On Launch Sequence

What's the fastest path to revenue? Website-first, clinic-first, or community-first?

Recommended: Community-first — validate with 3-5 retirement communities.

3. Domain & Hosting

Should we stay on Wix, move to custom hosting ($5-10/mo), or run a hybrid?

Recommended: Custom hosting — full design control, lower cost.

4. Content Pipeline

How should ongoing content (testimonials, blog, social) get created?

Recommended: AI-assisted — turn clinic sessions into content automatically.
