Design

Our team has extensive experience building websites since 2011. We’ve built sites in WordPress, Wix, Weebly, Shopify, SquareSpace, Webflow, GoDaddy, Duda, BigCommerce, and even self-hosted sites with HTML, CSS, and JS. We’ve used every page builder under the sun, including Elementor, Divi, WP Bakery, Shogun, Page Builder, and more. We can confidently handle any platform you throw at us, and if we can’t, we’ll tell you right away.

The short answer is: it depends. Smaller sites can be built in as little as little as one week, and larger sites can sometimes take six to eight with all the materials that need to be gathered and revisions that need to be approved by multiple team members. On average, our sites take four weeks from start to finish with the storyboard meeting, the wireframe, mockup, development, and revision rounds.

In our experience, most site “redesigns” have actually been more time-consuming than fresh sites because we have to find a creative solution in a tightly-constrained box rather than having full creative control in starting fresh. Most of the time, we end up spending just as much time, if not more, creating a new look for your site that looks like an upgrade on what was already there. For this reason, there is no price difference between redesigned sites and new websites.

Okay. Most of our clients usually hired someone there on the first go around. Then, when they outgrew that, they might have invested a bit more to work with a local web developer. Most of the time, they get ripped off by both. The cheap Fiverr site is usually a cookiecutter WordPress or Shopify theme where all the person did is change images and rewrite copy. There’s no brand at this stage, just a “website.” The local developer usually makes something a little bit better. They’ll improve the functionality of your site and help you set up your first real sales funnel. Where these designers usually lack though is the design. That’s where our business comes in. If you want a site that looks great AND helps you book more appointments, sell more products, raise more money, etc. then you should work with us. If you’re willing to make an investment in your business’ long-term growth, then we are the right agency for you. A cheap website is like a cheap shirt; after a year or two, you need a new one. We want to build the last website you’ll ever need.

Because we don’t use a monthly retainer model, it is not financially sensible for us to offer more than two. Many agencies are able to offer unlimited revisions because they charge you $50-200 per month to “maintain” your website. They bank on the fact that whatever revisions you want to make won’t take them too long, and they’ll profit that $200 every month forever. Our websites are built with your bottom line in mind; you’ll only pay a small monthly fee to WordPress, Wix, Shopify, or wherever your site is hosted (you would have to pay that anyways). We only do per diem website work, and what we’ve found is two revision rounds is the perfect amount that catches 99.99% of issues without taking too much time.

Our websites are built in two stages: design and development. The design stage includes a wireframe and a high-fidelity color mockup, both built in Adobe XD. The development stage is when we take the high-fidelity mockup and develop it into your real website. You pay for the stage 100% upfront and are allowed to walk away at any time if you’d like (although, we haven’t had that happen yet). For example, you could pay for the wireframe and mockup and then go hire someone else if you don’t want us to develop it. If, for some reason, our relationship isn’t as strong as you hoped it would be, you’re free to cancel before the development stage and only pay for what you wanted: the mockup. Essentially, you’re paying to see the next step. If you like the examples on our website and feel satisfied with our team after an intro call, then you can pay for a wireframe and mockup. If you like the mockup you received and want your website to look like that, then you can pay for us to develop it. This model ensures both parties are always satisfied with what they receive. Here's an animation of each stage of the process: wireframe, mockup, and development.
