Absolutely agree! I’ve been building my freelance web design business with that long-term mindset, focusing on systems, branding, and client retention. A while back, I took inspiration from https://abilenewebsitesdesign.com/ — their clean structure and professional presentation really showed me how a well-organized site can reflect a business’s value. It's all about creating something that can run without you and appeal to future buyers.
