Website makeovers
& Squarespace websites
Get a website that drives the business you deserve!
A smart investment in your business
The Blaze custom web design & build service gives you an attractive, mobile-friendly, SEO and competitor researched website designed for conversion and growth. Depending on your goals, the website may include functionality such as appointment booking, e-commerce, a membership area or invoicing.
A lot goes in behind the scenes when creating or making over a website designed for business growth:
Research, planning and a clear structure for approval and feedback are essential to the process and final success of the project. Before a single content block is dragged and dropped, I’ll spend time understanding your business and marketing strategy, doing competitor research and exploring the best way to make your website work for you.
Design will follow with wireframing, moodboards, mock ups and then a build process before testing and launch. The custom website design & build service includes custom coding to help give your website wow factor and make it stand out.
The custom website design & build service usually takes 4-6 weeks, allowing time for review and feedback to ensure that your new website is primed to drive your business forward.

The design & build process
-
Book a Call: On receiving your 'Book a Call' form I will schedule a time and before the call do some basic research based on the information you provide.
The first Discovery Call: In this short first call I will go through information submitted and we can discuss scope, budget and timelines. I will provide a verbal estimate. If this looks on track, our next step will be the agreements.
Proposal, estimate and contract: I will provide an estimate. In the proposal and estimate, I will allow for a few options as we may still adjust the scope of the project after the Research & Familiarisation phase. If the proposal and estimate are acceptable, you would sign the contract and pay the first payment.

Schedule
The benefit of working with a solo agency is the personalised attention you will get. I make this possible by not overscheduling and working with only a few clients at a time. I do this by planning out a schedule with my clients at the outset with the expectation that deadlines will be met by both sides. This means that I can deliver your website within an agreed timeline so that you can start leveraging your new marketing machine, and I can then turn my attention to the next business looking for a website to fire up business growth.
Take the first step to firing up your business with a website built for growth
1 - Use the contact form to get in touch with suggestions of convenient times
2 - Provide some information about your project so I can prepare for our call to make sure we use our time together effectively
3 - In our discovery call we can confirm whether my skills match your needs, and I can give a verbal quote . If this all sounds good we can move ahead with a more detailed review, proposal and contract.
