The 5-Step Client Onboarding Framework

A clear path from preview to a live website.

No mystery, no pressure, and no surprise invoices. You see the work first, choose how to pay, and approve every change before it reaches your customers.

At a glance

  • Live mobile preview before payment
  • $99 + $19/mo or $499 + $49/mo
  • Launch within 24 hours of approval
  • Private draft before every update
  • Hosting, SSL, renewals & uptime handled

Five steps, zero guesswork

The 5-Step Client Onboarding Framework

Here is exactly what happens from the first conversation to a live, managed website — and what stays in your control at every stage.

Step 01

No cost

Free Mobile Preview

We build a live, working draft of your new website on a private preview link. You get to test-drive the look, feel, and mobile speed before spending a single dollar.

Step 02

Choose your model

Simple Flat-Rate Pricing

Choose what fits the size of your business: a one-page starter at $99 setup plus $19/month, or a complete five-page site at $499 setup plus $49/month. No hidden add-ons or surprise invoices.

Step 03

Within 24 hours

24-Hour Express Launch

Once you approve the design, we secure your domain name, configure your lead-capture forms to go straight to your phone, and launch your site live to the web within 24 hours.

Step 04

Every update

Risk-Free Updates ("Private Draft Mode")

Need to change prices, add photos, or update your phone number? We make every change on a private, non-public draft link first. You review and approve the changes on your phone before anything goes live to your customers.

Step 05

Always on

Zero-Overhead Maintenance

We handle secure edge hosting, domain renewals, SSL certificates, and daily uptime monitoring in the background so you can focus entirely on running your business.

Zero-downtime updates

Private Staging Draft vs. Live Site

Your live website is never the test environment. We build and review every update on a separate private link, then publish only the version you approve.

No downtime. No broken pages.

01

We edit a private copy.

New prices, photos, phone numbers, or service pages are built on a separate draft URL — never on your live site.

02

You review on your phone.

See exactly what customers will see, then approve the update or ask for another round of changes.

03

We publish in one step.

The approved version replaces the live site cleanly. If anything needs another pass, your current site keeps serving customers.

What can change privately?

  • Prices
  • Photos
  • Phone numbers
  • Hours
  • Service areas
  • Team bios

Because the live site is a separately deployed static build, an unapproved draft cannot break the version your customers are using.
