Who this is for.
You run an established local business. It's going well. But your website isn't bringing in the work it should, and the marketing keeps sliding down the list behind the things that have to happen today.
You've probably tried pieces of this before. Someone to build the site. Someone else for the ads. Someone else again when you needed a brochure. Each piece done on its own, none of it joining up.
What you want is someone who takes it on properly and stays. Not an agency you hand your business to. Someone who works with you, knows how the business actually runs, and does the work.
That's what this is.
What's included.
A website, built properly. Custom designed around the customers you're trying to reach and built on a modern platform — fast, secure, and made to last. Not a template. Not a page builder you're left to wrestle with. This is where we start, because everything else needs something solid underneath it.
Your website, brand and marketing held by one person. I handle the web side completely — you don't need to learn it, touch it, or worry about it. On the marketing, I work alongside you. Your business, your voice, your call. I bring the structure and do the work.
A working session every month. Same slot each month. We look at what's live, what's working, and decide where the focus goes next. That conversation becomes the month's brief, agreed in writing. No re-scoping, no quoting every task.
A real piece of work, every month. Decided in advance so you always know what's coming. A new section, an intake that qualifies leads, an email sequence, a campaign, a piece of brand work — whatever moves the business next.
Strategy pointed where the business is going. Not just this month. Who you're trying to reach, where the business is heading, and whether everything you put out is pointed that way.
Direct access. You work with me. No account manager, no handing you off to a team, no briefing someone who then briefs someone else.
The most valuable work I've done has rarely appeared in a project brief. It has come about as I've understood the business and had the opportunity to implement the needed change.

How it runs.
One session a month. A recurring slot, same time each month. Prep happens beforehand so the session is where decisions get made, not where thinking starts.
Around two days of focused work a month. Done in concentrated blocks rather than scattered across the calendar. You're paying for work that moves the business forward, not time on a clock.
One channel between us. Email or Slack for quick questions and feedback. Not unlimited support — concentrated, so nothing gets lost.
The bits that change, you can change. Your hours, your pricing, news, articles — the parts that move often sit in a simple editor you control. No waiting on me to update opening hours. Most owners never open it, and that's fine too.
One person, start to finish. Across design, development, brand and strategy. No handoffs, no briefs getting lost in translation.
What it costs.
$2,000 a month. One predictable figure, the same every month — including the months the website is being built.
That's less than half what a junior marketing hire costs you monthly once super, leave, software and training time are in. An agency retainer at this level buys an account manager and a queue. Three freelancers cost you the hours you spend briefing all three.
Why twelve months. Search takes months to move. Content builds slowly. A digital presence that brings in work gets built and then evolved over time. The term matches what the work actually needs.
Got a unique situation? We can have a conversation about scope and the monthly figure.
