Agencies

You win the work and keep the client. I build it, hand you the code, and stay out of the way.

For agencies

Most agencies hit the same wall: more work than hands, and hiring is a six-month bet on a pipeline that might not hold. Bringing me in is the version of that you can switch off. I build to your brief, at your pace, and nothing that leaves here has my name on it.

The rules

Where you stand

Nothing carries my name
No badge in the footer, no credit line, nothing in the code comments. As far as your client is concerned, your agency built it — because as far as the contract is concerned, you did.
I will not approach your clients
Not during, not after, not in two years when the site needs a refresh. If one of them finds me on their own and gets in touch, I tell you before I reply.
You choose whether I exist
I can stay completely invisible and deal only with you, or sit in a call as part of your team under your name. Some agencies want the technical answers to come straight from the person who wrote it. Both are fine.
An NDA if you want one
Send yours and I will sign it. If you would rather I sent one, I have a plain two-page version that says the same thing.
How it runs

Six steps, three of them mine

You are never waiting on me to talk to your client, and I am never talking to them without you. Everything above the line is yours.

  1. 01 You

    You win the work

    You pitch it, you quote it, you sign it. Your relationship, your margin, your client.

  2. 02 Me

    I scope it and give you a number

    Send me whatever you have — a brief, a call recording, a screenshot of a competitor. You get a fixed price and a date back, usually the same day.

  3. 03 Me

    I build it

    You get a link to watch it come together rather than one reveal at the end. Under your name, or with no name on it at all.

  4. 04 You

    You show your client

    You run that conversation. Send me the feedback in whatever state it arrives — a forwarded email is fine.

  5. 05 Me

    Changes, then handover

    Changes go in, then you get everything: the repository, the code, and the instructions to run it. Or I put it live for you.

  6. 06 You

    You invoice your client

    At whatever you sell it for. I invoice you at the partner rate, and what you charge on top is your business.

Two ways

Job by job, or a standing lane

01

Per project

Overflow. A job you have already sold and cannot fit.

Priced per build, off the same figures on my pricing page with the partner rate taken off. You send the brief, I send a fixed number, you decide.

  • A fixed price before anything starts
  • No commitment and no minimum number of jobs
  • Quoted the same day, most days
  • Use me twice a year or twice a month

02

A standing lane

A steady pipeline you want covered without hiring.

A monthly amount that reserves build capacity for you. Queue as much as you like and reorder it whenever your priorities change, the same way the subscription works — at the partner rate.

  • Capacity held for you, not shared out first come first served
  • Queue as many jobs as you like and set the order yourself
  • Your work jumps ahead of one-off enquiries
  • Pause it the month a pipeline goes quiet

Pricing

25% off everything

There is no separate agency price list to go out of date. It is the published prices with 25% taken off, because you bring the client, you run the relationship, and you have already done the part that costs me time.

Same for the standing lane and for anything on the pricing page. Starting points, not averages — the real number comes back with the quote, in writing, before anything starts.

Handover

What you actually get

The repository
Yours, on your account. Full history, not a zip file of the final state.
The code, readable
Commented where a decision was not obvious, so whoever picks it up next is not reverse-engineering it.
Run and deploy notes
How to run it locally, how to put it live, and what to change when the client wants a new page.
Hosting, if you want it
I can put it live on your hosting, on the client’s, or on mine and hand you the bill. Or you take the repository and do it yourself.

Where I am the wrong call

I am not a design studio. If you need brand work, illustration or a strategy deck, that is not me. I am also not the right call for a two-hour emergency fix on somebody else’s WordPress build — I work on things I can stand behind, and I cannot stand behind a plugin stack I have never seen.

Questions

Straight answers

How fast can you turn something around?
A small site is usually a week to two weeks of build once the words and pictures exist. Waiting on content is what makes projects late, almost every time. Tell me the date you have promised your client and I will tell you straight whether it is possible before you commit to it.
What do you need from me to quote?
Less than you think. A rough brief, a page list if you have one, and a sense of what already exists — words, photographs, a logo. I will ask about anything that changes the number rather than padding the quote to cover the unknowns.
Can you work inside our process?
Yes. Your project tool, your branch naming, your review steps, your deadlines. I would rather fit into something that already works than ask five people to change how they operate.
What if my client wants changes after handover?
Send them to me at the partner rate, or handle them yourselves with the code you already have. Both are fine, and neither costs you a retainer.
Do you white-label the whole thing?
Completely. Nothing in the footer, nothing in the code, and I do not put the work on my own site unless you specifically say I can.
What if the build goes wrong?
You will hear it from me before you hear it from your client. If I am going to miss a date, I say so as soon as I know rather than the day before, so you have time to manage it on your side.

Tell me what you have coming up.

A rough brief is enough for a fixed number and a date.

Pick whichever suits you
