Which one sounds like you?
Most owners call us with one of four problems. Here's each one, and the client whose site fixed it.
You're starting from zero
developmentaljourneys.com
You just opened. No site, no logo, nothing to send people to. We build the whole presence at once - the logo, the graphics, and the site - so you launch looking like you've been around for years.
A custom site
Built for the people you serve. For Developmental Journeys, that's families across 11 counties and 50+ towns in rural Middle Tennessee.
Email on your domain
Addresses that match the site, working on launch day.
You're always hiring, and your site doesn't help
elite-industrial.com/careers
Open roles all the time, and nobody whose job is filling them. We build recruiting into the site: job posts that sell the role, applications routed to the right hiring manager, and designed email notifications. Elite Industrial's open positions now fill without a recruiting campaign, and visits to its careers page grew 3.7x in early 2026.
Job descriptions
Written to sell the role to the person you want, not just list duties.
Application routing
Each applicant lands with the hiring manager for that role.
Designed notifications
Emails your managers and your applicants actually open.
Your business runs on paper and spreadsheets
Warranties, claims, inventory. It's all in binders and a spreadsheet one person understands. We build the back office into the site, so your staff only react when something arrives.
0records anyone tracks by handThe site takes registrations and claims, writes the PDFs, and sends the emails. Staff act when one arrives.
Spartan Comfort Systems supplies mini-split HVAC units through a dealer program. Before the build, they tracked everything on paper and spreadsheets: inventory, warranty registrations, and claims.
Now customers register warranties and file claims on the site. The system writes the PDFs, sends the emails, and files each one in a custom admin panel. Owners troubleshoot their own units, too: an interactive portal walks them through each error code.
Your site can't take money or signups
People call to sign up, and you take payments by hand. We build sign-ups and payments into the site, sized to how you sell.
FullOnline sign-ups filled the range, so it closed registration2025, confirmed by the owners. No figure given.
Silver Creek Range is a members-only shooting range, a category most ad platforms restrict. The site has to do the selling on its own.
We built it to sell memberships and take registrations online, so joining doesn't start with a phone call. It worked too well: so many people joined that Silver Creek had to close registration.

Dynamic Partnership
$18,000
The starting price: $1,500 a month, 3-month minimum.
Your monthly budget stays fixed. We move it between paid ads, video, and social, toward whatever works best for your business at that price, so you don't have to be the expert on which one to focus on.
Scoped to your plan, content first, then ads. A strategist, designers, a video crew, and web developers join as the plan needs them. No recruiting, benefits, or software bills.
How the partnership worksWhere these numbers come from
Salaries: BLS Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics, May 2025, Mobile, AL, median to mean, rounded. Benefits and payroll taxes: BLS Employer Costs for Employee Compensation, 30 to 36 percent of wages. Tools: list prices, October 2026. Recruiting: SHRM 2025 cost per hire, spread over two years.

Your website never clocks out
Your salespeople go home, and you have to sleep sometime. Your site keeps meeting customers the whole time, so it had better make a good first impression.
A better site gets found
40x
the organic search traffic of the site we replaced for McGowin Tax (June to December 2023 against July to September 2026).
- Slow loses the visit
- 53%
- Mobile visits abandoned when a page takes longer than three seconds to load (Google, 2016).
- Members come back
- 2.4x
- Online membership renewals on the Silver Creek Range site we built (2023 against 2025).
Two ways in, both priced up front
Need the site? Start with a project. Need the site and the marketing around it? Start with a Dynamic Partnership. Either way, we're interviewing you as much as you're interviewing us.
Not ready for either?
A paid strategy session
One working session with the people who'd build your site. We go through your site and your numbers, and you leave knowing what to fix first, whether or not we end up working together.
Frequently Asked Questions Straight Answers About Building Your Site
The questions we hear on every discovery call, answered before you have to ask.
How long does it take to build a website?
Depends on scope, but most custom builds land 4 to 8 weeks from kickoff to launch. We don't drag things out to pad the invoice. We get you live and move on to the next thing that makes you money.
Do I get a say in the design, or are you handing me a template?
Templates are for people who don't want to stand out. Every site starts from scratch: your brand, your goals, and your feedback the whole way through.
How much does a website cost?
Custom builds start at $5,000. Scope sets the final number (page count, integrations, e-commerce), and you get it in writing before we start.
Who owns the website when it's done?
You do. Full stop. It's your code, your content, and your domain. We build it, hand you the keys, and you're never locked into us just to change a headline.
Do you offer hosting and maintenance after launch?
Yes, if you want it. Plans start after launch and cover updates, monitoring, and the 2 a.m. "the site's down" calls. Skip it if you'd rather run it yourself. The code's yours either way.
Should we just hire a web developer?
Maybe, if you have a developer's worth of work every week. Most businesses don't, and one hire can't also design, write, and run the marketing around the site. Run your numbers in the calculator above. If a hire makes more sense, we'll tell you on the call.
The site is where the rest of it lands
Each client above needed more than a site. These are the services a site leans on most.
Built around your site
Developmental Journeys needed a brand before a site. Elite Industrial's careers page runs on video and social.
Ready for a site that actually works?
You've read this far, so you already know your current site isn't cutting it. Let's build the one that does.
