I build websites and do the monthly work that keeps the phone ringing. Most owners start with the strategy so they only pay for what they need.

## I look before I quote.

Most agencies will sell you a website on the first call. I'd rather look at what you have first, because some of the shops that call about a website don't need one.

So most jobs start with strategy. I go through your website and your Google Business Profile, and give you a written list of what to fix and in what order.

You can stop after the strategy, and plenty of owners do. The report is yours to keep.

## How I help.

Three services that work together, and most owners start with the first one.

### The strategy.

I go through your website and your Google Business Profile, and write it up in plain English.

You get a ranked list of what to fix, and the top few items usually cost nothing but your own time.

### Design and upkeep.

I build the website, and I keep it running after launch.

It loads fast on a phone, and every service and location gets its own page.

Every site comes with a monthly maintenance plan, and the plan stays with the business if you ever sell it.

### The marketing.

Showing up on Google takes steady work every month.

I keep your website current and get reviews coming in. Every month you get a short report.

## More services.

You don't need a strategy for these.

### Brand refresh.

If the logo was drawn in 1989 and the trucks don't match the business cards, I sort that out with my branding partner, Zach at Reflect Design.

### Consulting.

Some owners want a straight answer from someone who has worked in a shop and run a business. I work hourly or on retainer, on whatever the problem is.

## Start with a call.

Thirty minutes on the phone, and you leave with a fixed price for whatever you need.
