Services
What we can do for your business.
Three kinds of work, all aimed at small, local businesses: websites that bring in customers, apps that replace paperwork, and the everyday tech setup that makes a business look and run professionally.
Service 1
Website design for local businesses
For businesses that don't have a website yet, or have one that is out of date, hard to use on a phone, or stuck on a page builder you can't manage. We design and build a site that tells customers what you do and makes it easy for them to call, visit or book.
Good fit for restaurants, contractors, salons, auto and service shops, and other local businesses.
What's included
- A custom design that fits your business and brand
- Mobile-first layout, since most local searches happen on phones
- Pages for your services, hours, location, photos and contact details
- Menus, price lists or service lists that are easy to update
- Setup on your own domain name with a secure (HTTPS) connection
- Basic search engine setup: page titles, descriptions and a sitemap
- Help setting up or updating your Google Business Profile
- Updates and changes after launch when you need them
Service 2
Custom business apps
Many small businesses still run on paper forms, whiteboards, text messages and spreadsheets. We build simple phone and web apps that fit the way you already work, so information gets recorded once and is there when you need it.
Our own app, Service Tracker, is an example of the kind of focused tool we build: one job, done well, usable by someone with dirty hands and a phone.
Examples of what we can build
- Job, work order and service logs
- Inspection forms and checklists with photos
- Customer and equipment records
- Estimates, invoices and work reports
- Scheduling and dispatch boards
- Simple dashboards and reports for owners and managers
- Internal tools for iPhone, Android and the web
Service 3
Small-business tech setup
A business email address like you@yourbusiness.com looks more trustworthy than a free email account, and it stays with the business when people come and go. We get the pieces set up correctly so you don't have to figure out DNS records and admin consoles yourself.
What we set up
- Domain name registration, renewal settings and DNS
- Google Workspace business email on your own domain
- Email authentication records (SPF, DKIM and DMARC) so your mail is delivered
- Shared calendars, contacts and Google Drive for your team
- Moving existing email and contacts into Google Workspace
- Adding and removing team accounts as your staff changes
- Connecting phones, tablets and computers to your business accounts
Pricing
Quoted up front, in plain language
Every business needs something a little different, so website, app and setup work is priced per project. Tell us what you need and we will send a written quote before any work starts. Service Tracker has its own monthly plans.
Common questions
Do I need to have a domain name already?
No. We can help you choose and register one in your business's name, or work with a domain you already own.
Can you fix or redo the website I already have?
Yes. We can update an existing site or rebuild it from scratch, depending on what makes more sense for you.
I already use Gmail. Why would I pay for Google Workspace?
Google Workspace gives you email at your own domain, admin control over your team's accounts, and business-grade storage and support. It works in the same Gmail app you already know.
Do you only work with businesses in the Rio Grande Valley?
We are based in Rio Hondo and focus on the Rio Grande Valley, but most of this work can be done by email and video call, so businesses elsewhere are welcome to reach out.
