04/MYTHS, KILLED

Six things people
say to skip a real website.

What we hear · vs. what's true
agency.com

"A real agency means a real website."

You get the same template 10,000 other businesses use. With a $9k invoice.

wix.com/yourstore

"I'll just build it myself on Wix."

And spend 40 weekends learning. While your competitor's site shows up first.

fiverr.com/seller

"A $200 Fiverr will do for now."

"For now" turns into two years of an embarrassing URL on your van.

shopify.com/themes

"Shopify themes look professional."

They look like every other Shopify theme. Your brand becomes invisible.

cousin.dev

"My cousin's friend will build it cheap."

And ghost you in week three. With your brand assets on his hard drive.

chatgpt.com

"I'll just have ChatGPT make me one."

Now you own a folder of code you can't ship, host, or fix. Same problem, new shape.

05/QUESTIONS

The six questions I get
before every project.

Real ones · From real fit calls
01How can it possibly be 72 hours?+
Because there's one person on it (me), no internal meetings, no design-to-dev handoff, and a battle-tested kit of components I've refined across every build. You give me copy and brand assets up front; I cut the bureaucracy that bloats normal agencies. Sites that need 6 weeks at an agency take 3 days here.
02"Free until you love it" — what's the catch?+
There isn't one. I build the full site. You see it live on a staging URL. If you don't love it, you don't pay, and we part friends. The "catch" is on me: I only take on projects I think will land. Picky on intake = generous on terms.
03Why no Wix, Shopify, or Squarespace?+
They're great for someone else. They're not great for you, the local business who wants to look one-of-one. Hosted builders give you the same site as 10,000 other businesses, and lock your data into their ecosystem. Custom code = your brand, your speed, your portability.
04Do you write the copy?+
I'll help you sharpen it, but I don't write it from scratch. The site comes alive when your voice is on it — not mine. If copy is a blocker I can refer you to a writer I trust in Winnipeg.
05What if I need changes 6 months later?+
Email me. Small tweaks (copy, swap an image, fix a typo) are free for life. Bigger features are billed at $90/hr or as a fixed-bid mini-project. The source code is yours, so you can also bring in any developer — I write it clean for that exact reason.
06Do you take on businesses outside Winnipeg?+
Yes. Half the book is local; the other half is across MB, ON, and BC. The fit call is on Zoom either way. I prefer working with brick-and-mortar local businesses — bakeries, detailers, salons, realtors, trades — because that's who I keep getting referred to.
