A short process.
No missing context.

The same person who reviews the current site, asks the commercial questions and plans the pages also designs, builds and launches the finished website.

The work starts before the delivery clock does.

The right-fit call checks whether the business, scope, material and timing suit the Sprint. Nothing is booked until the requirements are understood and the project has a realistic route to approval.

Before the build is scheduled

  • The current website and priority action are clear
  • The scope fits within six focused pages
  • The brand, original imagery and approved information are ready
  • One decision-maker can give consolidated feedback
  • The £900 deposit and required access are in place

Four stages, with a clear decision at each one.

The process stays visible, but it does not turn the client into the project manager.

  1. 01

    Review what exists

    I examine the current message, services, trust signals, mobile experience and route to booking, calling or enquiring. The goal is to find the few problems the rebuild actually needs to solve.

    The decision:

    What should a suitable visitor understand, believe and do next?

  2. 02

    Plan the stronger route

    We agree the page set, hierarchy, approved proof, content responsibilities and primary action before design expands. This prevents a prettier layout from preserving the same confusion.

    The decision:

    What belongs on the site, in what order and for which customer decision?

  3. 03

    Design and build the real site

    I design and develop the mobile-first website as one connected piece of work. You review a working direction and return one consolidated revision round through the agreed decision-maker.

    The decision:

    Does the finished experience represent the business accurately and make the next action clear?

  4. 04

    Test, approve and launch

    I connect the approved booking or enquiry route, complete responsive and launch checks, verify the important actions and publish after final approval and the remaining £600 payment.

    The decision:

    Is the site accurate, usable and ready to put in front of customers?

Clear ownership keeps ten business days realistic.

Speed comes from prepared inputs, limited scope and direct decisions—not from skipping the thinking or rushing unfinished content into production.

Ricardo handles

  • Website and customer-journey review
  • Message and hierarchy planning
  • Design and responsive development
  • Technical and local-search foundations
  • Approved integrations and launch checks
  • Direct project communication

You provide

  • Approved business and service information
  • Brand files and original imagery
  • Reviews and proof with permission
  • Domain, analytics and platform access
  • One clear decision-maker
  • Prompt, consolidated approvals

Modern tools make the work faster. Judgment keeps it useful.

The value is not a list of software. It is having more time for the decisions that affect clarity, trust, performance and whether the finished site actually feels like your business.

One source of context

No brief is translated from salesperson to account manager to designer to developer.

Feedback reaches the work directly

You speak with the person who can assess the trade-off and make the change.

Technical choices stay commercial

Performance, structure and tracking are explained through what they enable for the business.

What can slow the process down?

When does the ten-day window begin?

After the £900 deposit, agreed content, brand files, original imagery, access and one decision-maker are ready. The project pauses when required inputs or approvals are late.

How is feedback handled?

The Sprint includes one structured revision round. Feedback should be consolidated by the agreed decision-maker so contradictory requests do not create avoidable delays.

Will I see the site before launch?

Yes. The site is reviewed and approved before launch. Final publication happens after the agreed checks, approval and remaining £600 payment.

What if the scope changes during the build?

Anything outside the agreed six-page Sprint is separated and quoted rather than quietly expanding the timeline or compromising the work already underway.

Do you disappear after launch?

Launch support is included. Ongoing Website Care or future changes can be agreed separately once the exact requirement and support terms are confirmed.

A short timeline only works when the decisions happen in the right order.

The ten-business-day target comes from prepared inputs, bounded scope and one decision-maker—not from skipping review, planning or testing.
