The process · five steps

From kickoff to code in your hands.

Scroll. The journey advances. Every step is productized, predictable, and pinned to a calendar — not vibes.

Onboard · Days 1–3

We sit down together. On-site if it matters.

Kickoff call, content audit, accounts hand-off. We bring the questions, you bring the truth about how the business actually runs. By day three the project is queued, your portal is provisioned, and you know what's shipping when.

What ships

  • Discovery call with the people who do the work
  • Brand + content checklist
  • Account access checklist (we administer, you own)
  • Live project portal — you can see every step
Ship · Days 4–10

Marketing Site goes live. Leads start flowing.

We build, host, and tune the site. SEO foundations, schema, sitemaps, performance. Lead capture wired to email + SMS. Google Business Profile claimed and optimized. By end of week two you're live, ranking starts climbing, and the phone starts ringing.

What ships

  • Marketing Site live on your domain
  • Google Business Profile claimed and tuned
  • Lead capture → email + SMS notifications
  • Analytics dashboard pre-wired
Tune · Monthly

Keep tuning. Keep shipping. Keep watching the data.

Two small edits a month included. Monthly check-in. We watch conversions, fix the weak spots, refresh whatever's stale. If you're a Sales Engine or Platform client we're also rebalancing automations and dashboards each month.

What ships

  • 2 content edits / month
  • Monthly optimization review
  • Uptime + performance monitoring
  • Quarterly design refresh
Climb · When the signal shows up

Climb the stack when the next problem appears.

When leads start slipping, we climb to Sales Engine. When ops becomes the bottleneck, we climb to Platform. We won't push you. We'll show you the signal and the math, and you decide. No re-onboarding — the same team keeps shipping.

What ships

  • Stack upgrade with no re-onboarding
  • Integrations layered onto existing site
  • Same team, same project portal
  • Tier change, no surprises
Own · Month 13

Code handoff. The relationship was earned.

At month 13 we hand over full source code, deployment configs, and documentation set up in accounts you control. You could take it to a different developer tomorrow. Most clients stay anyway — because the relationship is real, not the lock-in.

What ships

  • Source code repo in your account
  • Deployment configs in your account
  • Documentation a stranger can follow
  • Permanent escape hatch
