THE PROBLEM

Most websites start with a template, not the business

Every business is distinctive. The tools most websites are built with are not. Here is what that costs, and how we fix it.

GENERIC[01]

TEMPLATES THAT COULD BE ANYONE'S

Theme builders give a florist and a bike shop the same page, and the character that makes a business worth visiting is lost. We start from your business, not a theme.

PIECEMEAL[02]

A LOGO, A MENU AND A SITE THAT DON'T MATCH

Identity tends to grow piece by piece. We design the logo, the colours and the website as one considered system.

SCATTERED[03]

HOURS, BOOKINGS AND REVIEWS IN FIVE PLACES

Listings, booking tools and social profiles rarely agree. We connect them, so customers see one accurate picture.

RENTED[04]

A PLATFORM YOU PAY FOR BUT DON'T OWN

Subscription builders keep your design and content inside their platform. We build on your domain, and everything is yours.

YOUR SHOPFRONT

[01][02][03][04]

YOUR WEBSITE — EXAMPLE

HOW IT WORKS

Four stages. Live in as little as seven days.

  1. [01]

    MEASURE

    We study the business, its customers and how they find it. Scope and price are agreed before design begins.

  2. [02]

    DRAW

    Identity and layouts are designed and presented for review, then refined with you before anything is built.

  3. [03]

    BUILD

    Built, written and finished to a production standard, then tested across devices and browsers.

  4. [04]

    OPEN

    Launched on your own domain and handed over with training. Ongoing care is there if you want it.

PACKAGES

Fixed scope. Fixed price.

FAQ

Questions

[01]How long does a project take?

As little as seven days. Window launches in seven days, Shop in three weeks and Full Fit-out in four to five. The launch date is agreed before work begins.

[02]How do I pay?

50% up front to book your start date, and 50% at launch. The price is fixed when we agree the scope, so the second invoice is the same as the first.

[03]Is VAT added?

No. SHOPFRONT is not VAT registered, so there is no VAT to add: the price you see is the price you pay.

[04]How many rounds of changes are included?

Five rounds of changes, in every package. Anything new beyond the agreed scope is quoted before we do it, never added to the bill afterwards.

[05]What is not included?

Your domain name and any booking or ordering service the site connects to are paid at cost, with nothing added. Hosting after launch comes with the optional care plan, or we hand the site to you to host yourself.

[06]Who owns the finished work?

You do: the website, the copy, the design files and the domain. There is no lock-in.

[07]Are there ongoing costs?

Only if you want them. Our optional care plan is £45 a month or £350 a year and covers hosting, security, monitoring, backups and up to 30 minutes of edits a month. Without it, we hand the site over and it can be hosted at little or no cost.

[08]Can I make changes myself?

Yes. Hours, prices, menus and photography are editable without code, and training is part of every handover.

[09]I already have a website. Do you work with existing sites?

We review what you have and recommend a rebuild or a refresh, whichever serves the business better.

[10]What do you need from me?

An hour at the start, access to your Google Business profile if you have one, and any photography or brand material you already use.
