The Problem: The Silent Leak
Websites don’t usually fail overnight… they drift. The design falls behind, the message gets muddled, and your best leads disappear in silence.
If your site is “nice” but the phone isn’t ringing, it’s failing at the one job that matters. This Launchpad is the “Digital Plug” for that leak.
Why this isn’t a $300 Craigslist special?
On Craigslist, you are surrounded by “pixel-pushers” charging $300. The table below will illustrate my added value and why I cost more.
Who This Is For
This is a fit if you:
- need a clean online presence fast
- want to stop losing leads due to “I’m not sure what you do”
- have a simple offer and want one focused page that sells it
- want something you can upgrade later without rebuilding from scratch
- found options on Craigslist, but none felt clear, credible, or “done right”
This is not a fit if you:
- need 5–10 pages, complex menus, or lots of services
- need heavy custom features (membership, complex booking, portals)
- want “a bunch of design stuff” without conversion structure
The Launchpad (1-page) includes:
-
One conversion-focused page + lead capture
-
Clean brand polish + clear section flow
-
Basic SEO + speed/security essentials
Not included:
-
Multi-page sites, complex menus, advanced features
-
Custom apps/memberships/portals
-
“Unlimited revisions” (scope creep)
Pro tip: On Craigslist, always audit their site first. If a designer’s own homepage feels dull, outdated, or confusing, don’t expect yours to be any different. It’s the most honest portfolio.
What You Get
The Launchpad is a streamlined build: up to 3 core sections (think: ~3 pages worth of content) on a single scrolling page.
If you need 4+ sections (or multiple services/locations/menus), that’s a larger build lane — I’ll quote it accordingly so it stays clean and high-quality.
Included in the One-Page Launchpad
- One conversion-focused page (mobile-first + clean layout)
- Up to 3 core sections (roughly 3 pages worth of content) on one scrolling page.

- Clear section flow (headline → offer → proof → FAQs → CTA)
- Contact / lead capture (form or click-to-call + email)
- Basic on-page SEO (titles, meta, headings, image alt, indexable setup)
- Speed + security essentials (no bloat, no junk plugins)
- One revision round (tight + efficient)
You provide (to keep this fast + affordable)

any reviews/testimonials you already have

My Process
How it works
1) Intake (5 minutes)
You tell me what you do, who you serve, and what action you want people to take.
2) Structure first
I build the flow that gets a stranger from curiosity → trust → action.
3) Design second
Minimalist, modern, clean. Your site should signal competence in under 10 seconds.
4) Revision + launch
One revision round, then we publish.
Risk-Free Guarantee
My Promise to You
Design Direction Guarantee: If you don’t like the direction after the first draft, I’ll revise it… it’s that simple. No pressure, no weirdness.
FAQ
Q: What’s included in the Launchpad?
Launchpad is a streamlined one-page build with a capped scope: you get up to 3 core sections (think: ~3 pages worth of content) on a single scrolling page, plus lead capture and the essentials (speed/security + basic SEO).
Q: How long does it take?
Most Launchpads are done in 5–10 business days once I have your content.
Q: What platform is this built on?
WordPress or Shopify depending on fit: I’ll recommend the sensible option.
Q: Can I upgrade later?
Yes. This is built as an on-ramp. If you expand, we build Phase 2 without starting from zero.
Q: Do you offer hosting / maintenance?
Yes — optional. If you already have hosting, I can work with that too.
Q: Can you do $750?
Sometimes—if we keep it lean. Only if the scope is extremely minimal and basic. Most builds land at $950 because it keeps the quality where it needs to be.
Q: Why shouldn’t I just use a $500 site or Wix / Squarespace?
You could. But a $500 site is a generic “business card” (at best). It just sits there. My websites are like a Smart Sales Team with a mastery of human behavior.
Cheap sites are usually slow, hard to use on mobile, and hemorrhage leads quietly. When you’re losing $500-$5,000 a week in missed revenue, that “cheap” site becomes the most expensive mistake you’ll ever make.
