For small businesses
You run a real business. Your website should too.
I build websites and practical AI for independent shops, firms, restaurants, and service businesses. One defined project, one fixed fee, shipped and running. Not a monthly bill you forget you're paying.
01 The problem
Your website was built once. Your business kept moving.
Most small-business sites got built by a cousin, a template, or an agency that stopped returning calls. The hours are wrong. The menu is a PDF. It crawls on a phone, and the phone is where your customers are. Meanwhile your day disappears into email, scheduling, quotes, and follow-ups nobody gets to.
You don't need a marketing plan. You need the site fixed and an hour of your day back.
02 Your website
A site that does its job while you do yours.
- Fast on a phone. Built mobile-first. Loads quickly for the customer standing in your parking lot, not just the one at a desk.
- Clear in one look. What you do, where you are, when you're open, how to reach you. Nobody hunts for the phone number.
- Found by search and by AI. Built so Google, Maps, and the AI assistants people now ask for recommendations can read it, trust it, and send customers your way.
- See it before it's live. You get a private preview link. Click through it, mark it up, change your mind. It goes live when you say so.
- Ready to sell, if you sell. Online ordering, booking, gift cards, or a store, wired into Square or whatever you already run. Left out when it doesn't earn its place.
- Yours. Your domain, your content, your accounts. You're not renting your own website from me.
A better website brings in more work. The AI makes sure you can handle it.
03 Practical AI
AI that takes work off your plate.
Not a platform. Not a chatbot bolted to your homepage. I find the one thing eating your week, build the tool or agent that handles it, and show you how to run it.
It plugs into what you already use: your inbox, your calendar, your files, your booking system or CRM. Nothing new to learn.
- Intake that sorts itself. Inquiries, quote requests, and form fills arrive summarized, sorted, and with a reply drafted, not buried in an inbox.
- Follow-ups that actually go out. Quotes that went quiet, customers due back, happy ones worth asking for a review. Flagged and drafted, waiting for your OK.
- Scheduling without the back-and-forth. Appointments, reminders, and reschedules handled against your real calendar.
- Content you don't start from scratch. Specials, updates, posts, and the customer email drafted in your voice from what's actually happening in the business.
04 How it works
Three steps. One fixed fee. No hourly clock.
-
Talk
A free conversation about what's stuck. You tell me what's broken. I tell you straight whether I can fix it.
-
Scope and fee
One defined project and one fixed fee, in writing, before any work starts. You know the number up front.
-
Ship
I build it, you review it, it goes live. Then I show you how to run it so it keeps working after I'm gone.
