Project management in Boise, Idaho

The stages of a project

A typical project runs four to eight weeks from strategy to launch. The length depends on the package and how quickly feedback and content come in. Every project moves through the same stages.

• Kickoff. We talk through goals, customers, and what the site has to do. The project plan comes out of this call.
• Strategy. We decide the pages, the structure, and the messages for each.
• Design. You see the layouts for the key pages before we build them.
• Build. We build on Next.js, add forms and tracking, and connect the Sanity CMS if your package includes it.
• Review. You test the site, send feedback, and we revise through a defined process.
• Launch. We run the launch checklist, go live, and set up search engine reporting.

How feedback works

Feedback is where schedules usually slip, so we give it a structure. You'll know when a review round starts, what we need from you, and when it ends.

Here is a tip that saves time: pick one person to collect comments and send them as a single list. Mixed messages from several people slow everything down. If a business partner or a spouse has opinions, let them weigh in, but have one voice send them to us.

We also ask that feedback be specific. Instead of this feels off, tell us what you expected to see. We'll translate the rest.

Big changes are cheaper early. Moving a section on a layout is quick. Moving it after the page is built and wired to forms and tracking takes longer. That's why the design stage comes before the build, and why we ask you to look closely at the layouts when you see them. If you're unsure about something, say so then. A doubt raised early is a quick fix. The same doubt raised at launch is a delay. Keeping that rhythm is most of what good project management means.

What we need from you

A short list keeps things moving.

• Access to your current domain and any accounts we'll connect to.
• Photos of your best work, at the highest quality you have.
• Fast answers when we ask a question, since a small delay compounds.
• Copy, if you're on the Launch package. Authority and Premium include full copywriting for every page.
• A launch decision maker who can say yes.

Payments and scope

Payment is simple. 50% of the build is due at kickoff and 50% at launch. Hosting and CMS are $75 per month.

Website packages start at $3,900, and most projects land around $6,400. The Launch package is $3,900, Authority is $6,400, and Premium is $10,100. The scope in each package is written down before we start, so there are no surprises. Anything outside it gets talked through before work begins. See the pricing page for the full list.

Pages are the clearest way to see scope. Authority is a 15 to 20 page site, and Premium is 20 to 30 pages. If you're sitting between two packages, we help you pick the one that matches what the business needs, not the one with the bigger number.

The launch checklist is the last piece of project management. Before the site goes live, we test forms, check tracking, review every page on a phone and a laptop, and set up search engine reporting. You get a clear go-live moment instead of a slow fade.

Who it's for, and common mistakes

It's for busy owners who want a build that stays on track and who'd rather not manage a developer. It also helps owners who had a past project drag on for months.

The most common mistakes are adding pages mid-build, waiting weeks to send content, and treating launch as the finish line. We plan around these. Adding scope is fine, but we say what it does to the schedule.

Not sure what package or scope fits? A website consultation is a good place to start. To learn more about the people running your project, visit the about page, or read about our web design experts.

After launch

Launch is not the end of our work together. Every package includes post-launch support: 30 days for Launch, 60 for Authority, and 90 for Premium. After that, hosting and support keeps the site running, and we're still a message away.
