There are lots of reason a website is slow but some of the main ones are listed below.
Studies done by Google and Akamai show that people will leave a website if it doesn't load fast enough. Amazon did a similar study over 10 years ago where they found that they would lose 1% of sales for every 100ms of time it took for their site to load.
Your website is likely not working at the scale of Amazon or Google but you’re leaving money/visitors on the table if your website is slow. With some relatively quick actions you can speed up your website and increase the amount of conversions.

I will look at your site using Google Lighthouse, webpagetest.org, and Chrome Developer Tools for measuring site performance.
While the tools mentioned above are great, they are not the easiest to understand. I will provide a simple checklist that you can take action on.
After you’ve had the time to review your PDF, if you have questions, I am happy to help. We can setup a virtual meeting where I can answer your questions about my findings and anything else in relation to your sites performance.
