Frequently asked questions
What services do you cover?
Design
We specialize in web design and user interface design. In supporting your full web presence we also help with digital branding depending on your needs, covering logo design, brand identity guides, design systems and digital collateral, such as display ads. We do not design anything that is to be printed, such as packaging or brochures.
Development
We specialize in web development on WordPress for marketing websites and Shopify for ecommerce websites. Our process requires building a brand new instance of your website in WordPress or Shopify rather than adding to an existing website. We do not build on any other platforms or over preexisting development work.
What is your turnaround time?
MVP WEBSITES
The process from idea to launch takes 3-4 weeks on average, and is highly dependent on your ability to provide feedback and necessary assets within 12 hours upon request.
UNLIMITED
Most requests are typically completed within two days, on average. However, requests that are more complex may take longer to complete. In this case, you'll still receive status updates on your project, with an estimated completion date.
How does unlimited work?
How much can be completed in a month on the unlimited plan?
How long does it take to design and build a website?
Do you offer ongoing website support?
Absolutely! In addition to digital design support and initial builds we offer conversion optimization, site speed optimization, SEO copywriting, product management and more. After your website is live we can determine your ongoing needs and establish a plan for technical and creative support. We recommend subscribing to our Unlimited retainer for ongoing needs, but you can also engage with us on an as-needed basis if your needs are less frequent than monthly.
What if I'm unhappy with the work?
No worries! We will tweak the design till you are completely happy.
Will it be easy for me to make updates to my website?
Of course! All of our websites are built to be owner-friendly, opting for frontend, low-code building tools that make updating your website in the future very easy. For our standard websites we utilize the Elementor theme builder on WordPress, and for our ecommerce websites we build custom theme sections in Shopify while occasionally incorporating the Shogun page builder.
What will you need from me to begin?
Before we get started with your project, we’ll jump on a call with you and guide you through the process of our workflow. We'll also discuss your content strategy, establish the framework for your pages and create a transparent process for bringing your new website to life.
Some helpful things you can provide us in the design phase are:
- Any branding assets you have, such as your logo, fonts, color palette & patterns
- Any photography you have that you'd like included on the website
- Any specific inspiration, competitor reference or websites you like
And in the development phase we'll need:
- Account credentials to your CMS platform & host
- Access to your domain provider
How do I cancel my unlimited subscription?

No refunds can be provided for any services.
