Make it look nice:
Include a background image or gradient to make the page pop.
Use animations to make your CTA buttons stand out.
Add social proof
A social proof section builds trust and encourages more signups. Here’s how to add it:
Add a text element that says something like:
“56 people already joined!”
Style it to match your design—set the font size (e.g., 14px), color (e.g., gray), and alignment (e.g., left).
Add profile images:
Draw small circular frames (around 20px in size).
Duplicate for Variety:
Add a few different profile images for diversity. You can use placeholder images for now.
