From the first call to launch day.Five steps, with dates.

Every project, website or AI, follows the same five steps. You always know what happens next, when, and what we need from you.

  1. 1

    A free call

    Day one, about 30 minutes

    We talk about your business and what you need. You get a straight answer on whether we're a fit and which package suits you. No charge, no obligation.

  2. 2

    A written quote with dates

    Within two working days of our first meeting

    A short document with the price from our published card, what's included, what isn't, and a start and go-live date. Nothing begins until you agree.

  3. 3

    The build

    Websites: Launch 2 to 3 weeks · Growth 3 to 4 · Authority 4 to 6. AI: dates set in the quote

    Work starts once the 50% deposit is paid. For a website, you watch progress on a private preview link the whole way, with the revision rounds your package includes. For AI, we set it up and test it on your systems before it goes live.

  4. 4

    Launch

    On the agreed date

    The site goes live on your domain. We check that Google Search Console and analytics are working, and show you how to use your editing panel. AI goes live once it's tested, and its monthly fees start then. The other 50% is due on launch.

  5. 5

    Looked after

    Every month after

    For a website, the monthly fee covers hosting, security, backups and small changes. For AI, it covers the platform, your workflows and two hours of support. Email or WhatsApp, and the person who built it answers.

Will you vanish after the deposit?Here is why you won't be left stranded.

Many people have been burned before: a deposit paid, a developer gone quiet, a half-built site nobody can log into. Here is how we stop that happening.

  • You see it being built

    You get a private preview link in the first week. If work ever stopped, you'd see it within days.

  • Half now, half on launch

    The second payment is only due when the site is live on your domain. So we have every reason to finish.

  • Everything is in your name

    The domain is registered to you and the code and content are yours. If you ever leave, everything goes with you.

  • A real person, in Pretoria

    One studio, one phone number, one person who built it. The number on this site is the one that answers.

Payment terms

50% deposit to begin, 50% on launch. AI automation setup is paid the same way, and its monthly fees start when it goes live. Other terms can be arranged. Ask on the call.

Step one costs nothing.Let's have the call.

Thirty minutes, no obligation, and a straight answer at the end.
