How does the project run?

Four stages, from a free call to a documented handover. Your timeline is set in the written quote, once we have seen the account.

  1. CallA free 30-minute call. You show us the account and the goal, and we ask the questions that decide the scope.
  2. Scoped quoteYou get a written scope: what we will change, what we will not touch, the price and the order of work.
  3. BuildWe work inside your account with the access you grant, and we test every change against real contacts and test data.
  4. HandoverWe walk you through what changed and leave written notes, so your team can run and edit it without us.

What should you ask before hiring anyone?

Ask these of any GHL provider, including us. Here is how we answer them.

What a client said
“Professional, great communication and very proactive. Definitely recommend.”
Kerry MooreFounder, Cambridgeshire Wellness Clinic, United Kingdom
Who owns the account after setup?
You do. We build inside your account and hand over full control at the end.
Will the setup work as a snapshot later?
If you ask for it, we build with custom values and clean naming so the account can be saved as a snapshot and reused.
What do you need from me before you start?
Access to your domain's DNS, your brand details, the offers you sell and your existing contact list. We send the full list with the quote.
