We Create Innovative Solutions for Excellence and the Future

Managing your shop's inventory and fulfilling customer orders is handled through the dedicated, secure **Admin Panel** (Content Management System) that I custom-build for your e-commerce website.

This intuitive system requires no technical knowledge and allows you to perform all core administrative tasks easily. You will be able to:

• Inventory Control: Add new products, update stock levels, adjust pricing, and manage your entire product catalogue efficiently.
• Order Fulfillment: View new orders in real-time, update their status (e.g., from 'Processing' to 'Dispatched'), and track shipping details.
• Customer Management: Quickly access customer details, view order history, and handle returns or refunds securely.

Crucially, comprehensive **face-to-face training** is included. I will personally guide you through the entire system, demonstrating the quickest and most efficient workflows for managing your stock and processing daily orders.

Because every business is unique, the cost of a website varies depending on what you need it to do. Asking "How much is a website?" is a bit like asking "How much is a house?"—a two-bedroom cottage costs less than a ten-bedroom mansion.

However, to give you a realistic idea of what to budget:

• Standard Brochure Website: For a professional site that showcases your services, photos, and contact details (ideal for most service-based businesses), prices typically range from £500 to £1,500.
• E-commerce or Custom Site: For websites that need to take payments, manage customer logins, or handle complex databases, projects typically start from £1,500+ and vary based on complexity.

My Promise: I don't believe in hidden fees. After our initial meeting, I will provide a fixed-price quote in GBP so you know exactly what the total will be before we start. This fee is typically split into stages (e.g., a deposit to start, and the balance upon completion), all handled securely via GoCardless.

Yes, absolutely. As a computer programming specialist, one of the most powerful services I offer is integrating your website directly with your existing financial systems.

Automating the data flow between your website and accounting software (such as Xero, QuickBooks, or Sage) saves significant administrative time and reduces the risk of manual error. This advanced integration allows for:

• Automatic Invoicing: Generating and syncing invoices directly to your accounting platform when an order or service is purchased.
• Customer Data Sync: Automatically updating customer details and sales records in your financial ledgers.
• Real-time Reporting: Providing accurate and up-to-date sales and tax information.

Due to the sensitive nature of financial data, we map out these advanced integrations meticulously during our face-to-face consultation to ensure security, accuracy, and compliance.

Yes, social media integration is standard and essential for every modern website I build. Ensuring your digital presence is connected is critical for cross-promotion and growth.

We integrate your social media profiles into your website in various ways, based on your specific needs, including:

• Branded Icons: Clean, professional icons linking directly to your key social profiles (e.g., LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook) in the header and footer.
• Social Sharing: Implementing easy-to-use buttons that allow visitors to instantly share your blog posts or services on their own networks.
• Embedded Feeds: Integrating secure, live streams from platforms like Instagram or Twitter directly onto your homepage or dedicated pages.

During our consultation, we will map out the best strategy to leverage your social channels to drive maximum qualified traffic back to your new site.

All payments are handled securely via GoCardless in GBP (£). I do not accept cash, cheques, or direct credit card transfers over the phone.

I chose GoCardless because it is the safest and most efficient way for both of us to handle payments. Here is how it works:

• Secure & Simple: You simply set up a "Direct Debit Mandate" once via a secure online link. You don't need to manually transfer money or give me your card details over the phone.
• For One-Off Payments: For project deposits or final balances, I will send you an invoice first. Payment is then collected automatically on the due date—but only after you have been notified.
• For Ongoing Support: If you choose a monthly maintenance package, payment is collected automatically each month so your website stays online without you worrying about admin.
• You Are Protected: All payments are covered by the Direct Debit Guarantee, giving you a full immediate refund from your bank in the unlikely event of an error.
