Flexible Add-Ons Based on Your Needs
Every business is different. During discovery, we'll identify what else might serve your goals:
Custom CSS for refined design details that sets your site apart from the rest
E-commerce integration for product sales
Advanced functionality (booking systems, member areas, contact forms)
Extended page count for complex service offerings
Photography direction or content creation support
Full brand identity buildout for new businesses starting from scratch
Most projects run slightly differently, and that's exactly how it should be. We'll scope your project to match your specific requirements, not force you into a rigid template.
This Package is Perfect For:
New businesses launching their first professional website
Solo practitioners and small teams ready to establish credibility online
Brands with existing visual identity who need a site built strategically
Ambitious businesses that need to move fast without sacrificing quality
Service providers or product brands who don't need a complex multi-page site

The Process
-
Let's get to know each other!
To get the ball rolling, I will ask you to complete my discovery form and we'll schedule a zoom call. This will give me an insight into your business and requirements for the project.
From there I will the send a proposal of work for approval. If you choose to go ahead, I will ask you to secure your project in my diary with a 50% deposit.
-
Building on the shared discovery information, we will delve deeper into your project strategy and identify any gaps of information that haven't already been covered. You will have your own client portal to upload content for the project.
-
Once we have completed steps 1 & 2, I will create a homepage design concept for your perusal. If you're happy with it aesthetically and functionally, the remaining pages will then be built.
-
The final phase of the project will be going over last minute revisions, connecting to your chosen Squarespace subscription and make sure everything is in place.
Once everyone is happy, we will arrange the final project payment of 50% and then we can press LIVE and launch your new website!

Squarespace is one of the leading Content Web Platforms globally, with exceptional customer service. We have chosen to use this platform because, not only does it have all the tools needed to create stunning and effective sites, but it has a very simple interface, making it suitable for anyone to use.
This means I can keep costs down for clients who want to run their own site, post-launch. We do offer maintenance support for those who would like it. Squarespace is highly secure and fully managed, meaning updates are automatic and without disruption.

Basically, all packages are fully bespoke to the individual client. We will spend time during the discovery phase ensuring we are scoping and cultivating the right project. This will allow us to create a high-calibre website that matches your requirements and enhances your business. This is a value-driven business so packages are comprehensive and include everything you need, whilst keeping costs down. Most of our work is through referrals. Please do get in touch for an informal chat, if you’d like to know more.

Yes! I can create content / copywriting and would be delighted to help you with this. Whether it’s copy editing existing wording, or starting from the ground up, we can discuss it during the discovery phase and incorporate into the project, where appropriate.
Regarding images, I have photographer contacts we can recommend, and can put you in touch with them to discuss your requirements. We would then work closely with them during the project, for continuity. There are also a number of stock libraries, both free and paid, of high quality images that can help if needed.
-
Generally for this package 3-4 weeks is allocated. Gathering and creating content is the first phase of the project, ahead of the design.
Once I have all I need from you the client, we generally allow 2 weeks build time. We will agree a start date with you early on, if this helps you, so you can plan timings your end.
We can also schedule projects in advance, so there’s complete flexibility.
-
Once we have completed an initial discovery call, I will put together a proposal of work, which will include timescales and costs. Then, if you would like to proceed, there will be 50% deposit payment to secure your start date, and then the remaining 50% on design completion just ahead of going live.
