Website & app project process
A clear plan. A build you can follow.
- 1
Understand the job
We discuss your business, audience, existing tools, budget and the problem you want to solve.
- 2
Agree the scope
You receive a written proposal covering the work, deliverables, schedule, costs and payment stages.
- 3
Design, build, review
Review layouts and working previews at agreed milestones. We confirm any change in scope before proceeding.
- 4
Launch & hand over
We check the agreed flows, help you launch and hand over accounts and guidance. Ongoing support is agreed with you.
Features, delivery milestones and responsibilities are agreed before development begins. Larger app projects are split into manageable phases.
Our approach to pricing
Fair pricing. Clearly scoped.
We shape the proposal around what your business actually needs and what you are comfortable investing. Every project is quoted individually, with the costs explained before you commit.
- 01
A written quote before work starts
You can see what is included, what will be delivered and how payments are staged. The agreed scope sets the price.
- 02
A sensible first version
We can prioritise the essentials and plan the rest for later. A smaller, useful launch is often a good place to begin.
- 03
Ongoing costs made clear
Hosting, domains, third-party subscriptions, maintenance and any applicable taxes are identified in the proposal.
- 04
Changes agreed together
If the brief changes, we explain the effect on cost and timing and get your agreement before doing additional work.
A few practical questions
Before we begin.
Can you improve my current website?
Yes. We first review the platform, account access, content and the changes you need. We then recommend an update, redesign or migration based on what is practical.
Do I need an app as well as a website?
Not always. We look at how often people will use it and what they need to do. An existing tool or a mobile-friendly website may be enough; a custom app makes sense when it solves a clear, repeat-use problem.
How much will my project cost?
The scope, number of screens or pages, integrations and content requirements determine the quote. Tell us your priorities and budget, and we will explain the options and costs before you decide.
Who owns the website and accounts?
Your domain and service accounts should be registered in your name. Ownership of project-specific design and code, and any third-party licences, is set out in the agreement, along with the handover arrangements.
Can you help after launch?
Yes. Updates, hosting support and maintenance can be included in an agreed support arrangement or quoted as separate work. We explain the coverage and response expectations before you choose.
Can we work together from another city or country?
Website and app projects can be delivered remotely in English and Chinese. We confirm working hours, currency, payment stages and delivery arrangements for overseas projects. Xiaohongshu creator campaigns currently focus on Melbourne businesses.
Your next step
Start with what your business needs.
Share your business, your current website if you have one, and what you would like to improve. An idea, a short list or an example you like is enough to start a project brief.
