A Free Web Design Consultation,Straight Answers Before You Spend a Dollar.

An honest read on where your site stands and what to do next, in writing.

First 30 min free

Fixed scope at a fixed price, quoted in writing before any work begins. What you approve up front is what you pay.

Per session

This is the schedule you can expect, agreed with you before anything starts. Nothing about the timing gets discovered halfway through.

One Developer

The person who scopes this work is the person who builds it. Nothing is handed to a junior or sent offshore.

100% Yours

The domain, the database, and every file transfer to you at final payment. There is no license to keep paying for and nothing to buy out later.

WHAT IS INCLUDED

A Real Conversation, Not a Sales Call.

  • Full website audit
  • Technology and platform recommendations
  • Vendor and platform evaluation
  • Actionable written summary
  • Roadmap with priorities and budget ranges
  • Honest pros/cons of each path
WHY IT MATTERS

Why This Matters for Your Business.

No upsell, no fluff

If you do not need a rebuild, I will tell you. If a competitor is the better fit, I will say so. Honest first.

31+ years of context

Decades of WordPress, WooCommerce, hosting, and small-biz strategy distilled into a single conversation.

A separate, paid service

Consultation and planning is billed in addition to the project, not credited toward the build. The first 30 minutes are free.

FAQ

Questions I Hear a Lot.

Is the consultation really free?

Yes. First 30 minutes are free. No upsell, no "free trial that auto-charges," no surprise invoice. After that, deeper engagements are $100/hr. Consultation and planning is a separate service billed in addition to the project, not credited toward the build.

What happens in the free 30 minutes?

You describe your situation, I ask questions, and you leave with a clear sense of what you actually need: refresh, rebuild, maintenance, or no change at all. No pressure to hire me at the end.

Will you give me a quote on the call?

Usually a ballpark. Firm quotes come after a paid scoping engagement where I review your existing site, analytics, and competitors in depth.

What if I just want a second opinion on someone else's quote?

That is exactly what consultations are for. Bring me a quote you have received from someone else and I will tell you honestly whether the scope, price, and approach make sense. If it is a legitimate US quote, my Price-Beat Guarantee applies and I beat it by 10%, whether or not I had quoted the work myself.

Do you ever recommend NOT hiring you?

Often. If you need someone in your time zone, a Shopify specialist, a brand agency, or a different platform entirely, I will say so and point you in the right direction.

Can we do this by email instead of a call?

Absolutely. If you would rather skip the call, use the contact form and ask whatever you need. I respond within one business day.

Do you take projects outside Idaho?

Yes. Most of my work is remote. I am based in Kuna, ID, but my clients are everywhere.
