Get a website that does work. $599 a month.

Be honest about the site you have

You're probably already paying for a website. Is it doing anything?

A lot of businesses around here pay real money every month for a site that hasn't changed in years, doesn't show up when neighbors search, and sends its leads to an inbox nobody checks. Some pay more than that for social posts nobody sees. That's a dead expense wearing a marketing costume. Others built something themselves years back, or never got around to one at all. However you got here: if it only produces when you chase it, it isn't a system.

Whatever you've got now, if it isn't bringing you jobs, it's costing you jobs.

What $599 a month covers

The site, and the system behind it.

A website that's actually yours

Custom to your shop: your trade, your photos, your reviews, your towns. Not a template with your logo dropped in, and fast enough that you feel it on your phone.

Every lead comes in qualified

Form, chat, or missed call, it hits your phone as a text: who it is, what the job is, what the scope is, what number to call back. You know before you dial whether it's a real one.

Estimates booked onto your calendar, screened first

Serious callers answer the questions you'd ask, then pick a slot on your calendar. Tire-kickers don't make it on.

Missed calls answered for you, in your name

You're on a roof or under a sink. The caller gets a text back in seconds, in your name, and the conversation books the job, flags the emergency, or filters out the rest.

Reviews requested, Google listing kept right

A review request goes out after every finished job, a bad one pages you instantly, and your listing stays current: hours, photos, services. The phone rings without paying anyone per lead.

Repeat jobs from your past customers

Month one, a friendly email to your past customers, with real offers a few times a year after that. And I'll tell you which of your customers you can legally text before we send anything.

I run it. You get a simple monthly report.

Hosting, fixes, and your changes handled. And every month, a simple report of what the system caught: leads, calls handled, reviews.

What's it cost?

$599/month

No setup fee. No second page of pricing. This is the number.

And you'll never wonder what the money did: every month you get a simple report of what the system caught, in writing.

Who you'd be working with

I've been doing this awhile.

I'm John. I've spent 16 years in software, most of it building real solutions for businesses, not just writing code. I've seen what actually works and what just looks good in a demo, so I'm not here to sell you a shiny tool.

What I love most is working with owners to find the technical friction in their day to day. I even built a framework for it: a structured walk through how your day runs now and where a little help would actually pay off. I call it the Flywheel Assessment.

My faith shapes how I work. I wrote about that on the why page.

Questions I get

Straight answers.

Why $599 when I can get a website for less?

You can get a website for less. You can't get a website, missed-call texting, qualified leads to your phone, review requests, a managed Google profile, hosting, changes, a simple monthly report, and a person accountable for all of it for less. The site alone isn't the product; the system that makes your phone buzz is. And if you're already paying $400 or $500 for a site that just sits there, this costs about the same and works.

I already have a website. Do you fix it up?

No, I build yours fresh. Rebuilding on my stack is faster than untangling someone else's, and it's the only way I can stand behind the whole system. Your photos, your reviews, and your content all come along; the dead weight doesn't.

When will it be live?

Plan on about two weeks; sometimes it's faster. I build every site myself, and I'd rather beat a date than miss one. The texting features usually follow about a week after the site goes live, because phone carriers require every business to be registered before it can text customers. With some business info from you, I handle all the paperwork.

Is this automation and AI stuff?

Some of it, where it fits. The texting back, the lead routing, and the review requests run on tested, predictable logic. Where AI is involved, it answers a chat or files a lead; it doesn't make decisions about your business or freelance with your customers. You'll know what's automatic and what's me.

What if I need changes to the site?

Ask by text or email and I make them. Normal requests typically land within a day or two; if something's actually broken, it goes to the front of the line. You're not filing tickets with a company; you're texting the guy who built it.

What if I end up needing more than the website?

Whatever your business needs, and nothing it doesn't. The website is built to be a complete thing: plenty of owners will never need more, and that's a fine outcome. But if what your phone starts catching makes you wonder about the rest of the operation, the scheduling, the follow-ups, the stuff that lives in your head, that's the Assessment, and it's there when you're ready, not before.

I'll build you a website that does work.
