§ 00 — HOW I WORK
Five rooms. I leave the doors open.
Same five steps for web and community work.
Diagnostic
Two weeks. I look at what you have — site, server, tools, data. I write up what's working, what isn't, and what I'd build next.
Sold on its own, this step is what /web-solutions calls the Audit tier.
Blueprint
One document. Scope, deliverables, timeline, price. Signed off before the first commit. No surprise line items later.
Build
I work in staging. You watch in public. Weekly demos, screen recordings, live links. Nothing goes live without you pressing the button.
Launch
Deploy. Write the docs. Train whoever runs it after me. 30 days of post-launch support — bugs, questions, tweaks — included.
Operate
Month-to-month retainer, or a clean handoff. Both are real options. The right one depends on who's doing the work in month three.
