website design
Why does nobody tell you want to put on your website?
That’s not a you problem. That’s just the industry being bad at explaining what building a website actually requires from you.
We’ve built enough of them to know that the client who walks in with a perfectly organized folder of polished copy and print-ready photos doesn’t exist. Nobody has that (really). And you shouldn’t have to!
The good news? You may not know exactly what to put on your website, but you already have everything you need. You know your business, your customers, and what makes you worth choosing. It is 100% reasonable that you aren’t quite sure how to translate that into website pages. Which is great because that’s OUR job!
You know your buisness. We know websites. Our job it to make those two truths work together.
Two ways to work with us, one outcome.
Both packages deliver the same thing: a clean, professional, SEO-ready WordPress website that sounds like you and actually works. The difference is how we get there.
Some people like having something to sit with…a guided process where they can contribute their own words at their own pace, and we shape it from there. Others want to hand the whole thing off and review it when it’s done. Neither approach is better. They’re just different.
Pick the one that fits where you’re at…
First Light
GUIDED WEBSITE BUILD
$3,200 | 4-6 WEEKS
For when you'd rather lead with your own words and have us there as support to shape them.
You know your business better than anyone. First Light gives you a structured way to capture that knowledge through our guided Content Workbook: five daily prompts, about an hour each, that pull out exactly what your website needs to say. We take it from there. We review your answers, build a content outline, get your approval, and turn it into a polished, professional site.
You're not writing a website. You're answering questions you already know the answers to.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
- 4–6 week delivery
- Our guided Content Workbook (5 prompts over 5 days, each about 1 hour)
- Content review + outline development by our team
- Content outline approval before we build
- Up to 5 custom WordPress pages
- Professional copy shaping and editing
- Mobile optimization
- Basic SEO + meta descriptions
- 1 round of revisions
- 1 recorded training session + Website Edit Guide
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
The workbook does something most people don’t expect: it makes you realize you already knew what to say.
You’re not staring at a blank page, you’re answering questions about your own business, which turns out to be the easiest thing in the world. PLUS…You save $1,300 compared to Sunrise because you’re doing the pre-work. In exchange, you get a polished, professional WordPress site that sounds exactly like you.
Oh, and you also get an edit guide so you’re never dependent on us to make a simple update. Most of our First Light clients feel more confident about their whole business after going through the workbook. That part’s just a bonus.
YOUR COMMITMENT
Five days of workbook prompts (about 1 hour each. You can do them in order or all at once, we’re flexible).
Review and approval of your content outline before we build.
Review of your website draft prior to launch (don’t worry, we’ll give you a checklist so you know what to look for!).
That’s it!

Sunrise
FULL-SERVICE WHITE-GLOVE WEBSITE
$4,500 | 4-6 WEEKS
For when you'd rather just talk and let us handle the rest.
You give us 60 minutes. We'll give you a website complete with professional copy, custom design, and everything set up and ready to go. No workbook. No blank pages. Just a conversation where we ask you the right questions, and we do everything that comes next.
This is the package for the business owner who is genuinely too busy, who processes better out loud than on paper, or who just wants to hand it off entirely and trust that it'll be done right.
WHAT'S INCLUDED

- 60-minute content discovery session (we lead the whole thing, you just show up)

WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT
If the idea of sitting down to write about your own business makes you want to close the laptop and go do literally anything else, this is your package.
You show up for one conversation, answer our questions out loud, and then we disappear and build. When we come back, you have a website.
Full professional copy. Custom design. Everything configured and ready to launch. Our Sunrise clients consistently tell us it felt almost too easy and that the site we handed them sounds more like them than anything they would have written themselves. That’s the goal.
YOUR COMMITMENT
A 60-minute content discovery session. That’s it! We will turn this conversation into a professional website built for you!
Review of your website draft prior to launch (don’t worry, we’ll give you a checklist so you know what to look for!).

Make it a full build
A website works harder when it’s built on a solid brand and pointed in the right direction. Both of our standalone services pair naturally with a website build, and when you add either one, we run them concurrently so your timeline barely changes.
A note on sequencing: brand and strategy come first. We finalize your visual identity and content direction before we build a single page. That’s not a rule we made up, it’s just the order that produces the best website.
