02   The problem

Stop juggling five different systems

Most organisations pay one company for the website, another for the till, another for data collection, and their staff have to learn how to use all of them. I put it all in one place, custom-built for you and easy enough that nobody needs a manual. You tell me what you're trying to do; I work out the rest.

Custom data collection, designed around your business or charity

I design bespoke tools to capture exactly the information that tells your story: feedback, impact, satisfaction, whatever matters to you. Effortless for people to fill in, and turned automatically into clear insight and funder-ready reports.

  • Forms so simple anyone will actually finish them
  • Answers turned into insight you'd never have spotted
  • Clear reports at the press of a button

Built for you

The work that
does itself

The best software quietly does the jobs you'd otherwise lose evenings to: no counting receipts, no copying the same post into five apps, no double-entering a booking. Here are a few of the things I can automate for you.

Sell on every marketplace from one photo.

Snap a product once and it writes the description, fills in the listing and posts it to eBay, Vinted, Depop and your own shop at once, with stock that updates everywhere the moment something sells.

One booking calendar, every platform.

Airbnb, Booking.com and Expedia kept perfectly in sync so you're never double-booked, with guest messages and changeovers handled for you.

An AI marketing assistant that knows your brand.

It learns your voice and your look, then drafts posts, captions and hashtags that genuinely sound like you, ready to approve and schedule across every account.

Your own AI that writes your blog.

Trained on your brand's voice, it suggests article ideas built to pull in local searches; you pick the ones you like and it writes them, so your site quietly climbs Google while you get on with the job.

Quotes and invoices that chase themselves.

From a quick quote to a paid invoice without you lifting a finger, including the polite reminders you'd rather not send.

Your numbers, gathered while you work.

The figures that usually live in a shoebox or a spreadsheet, captured automatically and turned into something you can actually act on.

Whatever your line of work, there's probably a better way to run it.

Let's find it.

07   Speed & reliability

Fast, and built to stay that way

Your site runs on AWS, the same cloud that powers Netflix, Amazon and the NHS. So it loads in a blink, stays quick on any phone, and takes a busy spell in its stride without so much as a stutter. No slow pages quietly costing you customers, and all the room you need to grow.

07   Security

Secure, so you can stop worrying about it

You know what a breach can do to a business. The same AWS infrastructure that household names and public services trust with their data protects yours: daily backups, regular security checks, a firewall and automatic updates, all included as standard and never an upsell. The usual ways small sites get hacked simply don't apply to how I build, and you'll never be the one explaining a breach to your board.

07   Local search

Found first, locally

Getting found is half the battle, so I take care of it. Your site is built to rank top for your own name, and to show up for the searches that actually bring you work, like "electrician in Penrith" or "florist in Kendal". Proper technical SEO, a polished Google listing, and local search done right, all handled for you, so the right people land on you and not your competitor.

08   How it works

Up and running in four steps

No jargon, no long forms, no commitment to start. We talk, I prototype, you decide, then I get it live.

  1. Have a consultation.

    A free, no-pressure chat about what you need.

  2. I design a prototype.

    You see it before you commit to anything.

  3. You decide if you're happy.

    We refine it until it's right.

  4. Deployment and training.

    I get it live and your team confident.

09   Switching

Switching is the easy part

It's mostly about your data, and that's the part I take off your hands. Whether it sits in spreadsheets, an old system, or a plugin you've outgrown, I move it cleanly into your new software with nothing lost. Your website comes over just as smoothly, with no downtime.

  • Your data, moved cleanly. Spreadsheets, an old system, or a plugin you've outgrown, all brought across with nothing lost.
  • No downtime. Your current site stays live right up until the new one's ready.
  • Nothing lost in the move. You hand it over and get on with your day.

10   FAQ

Common questions

The things people usually want to know before we talk. If yours isn't here, just ask.

How much will it cost?

It depends on what you need, which is exactly why we start with a free chat rather than a price list. You'll know a clear monthly figure that fits your budget before you agree to anything, and there are no surprise bills after.

How does paying work?

Whatever suits your cashflow. Pay for the build up front, or spread it into one simple monthly payment. Either way, support and hosting are included, and you'll know the exact figures before you commit. We'll settle the right setup when we meet.

I'm not very technical. Is that going to be a problem?

Not in the slightest. You don't need to understand any of it; that's my job. Everything I build is made so a busy person who'd rather not think about computers can use it from day one.

Are you just one person?

Yes, and that's the point. You get me: someone who knows your whole setup and answers when you call, not a call centre or a junior who's been handed your account. I take on a small number of organisations on purpose, so you're never stuck in a queue.

Do you only work with big organisations?

No. Most of the people I work with are small businesses and charities across Cumbria.
