22 answers / all topics

What can I ask the studio to make?

I work across nine categories: brand and graphics; websites and stores; copy and content; media; marketing and search; AI workflows; business plans and funding support; research and data; documents and training. The Services page lists concrete outputs and marks pilot or coming-soon work.

What do Launch and Growth cost?

Launch is $2,400 for up to five pages. Growth is $4,200 for up to eight. Both include copy, responsive design, an enquiry form, search setup, two revision rounds, launch and handoff. Growth adds blog structure and one existing booking embed. Prices are CAD before applicable tax. Domain, email, paid platforms and care are separate.

How long does a website take?

Launch and Growth have a 14-calendar-day delivery window from the complete brief, assets and deposit. The proposal records the start and delivery dates. Delayed content or feedback moves the dates. Stores and custom integrations have a separate scope.

Does every service take 14 days?

No. The 14-day commitment applies to the agreed Launch and Growth website scopes. Other projects receive a delivery date based on their output, dependencies and review needs.

How do website payment and revisions work?

Pay 50% at the start and 50% on approval. Two consolidated revision rounds are included. If you are not satisfied after those rounds, I refund the deposit. The agreement records the review and refund process. Additional scope requires written approval and a separate quote.

Who does the work, and how do you use AI?

I am Dhairya Patel. I do the work personally and handle your questions directly. I use AI for research, drafts and production. I check the sources, make the decisions and review the final output.

Who owns the finished website?

Your custom design and copy transfer to you on final payment. Third-party fonts, software and licensed assets keep their own licences. Your domain and accounts stay in your name.

What does monthly website care include?

Essential is $149 per month for routine checks and up to 15 minutes of edits. Active is $299 for those checks, up to 60 minutes of edits and a monthly search and enquiry review. Improve is $499 for Active care plus one scoped improvement within a three-hour total monthly allowance, including edits and a 20-minute call. Larger work needs a separate quote. Read the care scopes.

Are the portfolio sites paid client projects?

The eight displayed builds are concepts across eight industries. They demonstrate design and implementation. They are not evidence of client sales, rankings or lead growth. I am building my client record.

What does “pilot service” mean?

It is a newly defined service scope. I confirm the output, a relevant sample and the delivery requirements before quoting. The label does not claim a paid delivery history.

Can I book drone photography now?

Drone capture is coming soon. Booking opens after equipment, flight readiness and a deliverable sample are confirmed. You can register interest in business exterior or venue content.

Do you guarantee rankings or funding approval?

No. I can prepare the agreed search work or application using checked evidence. Search performance and funding decisions depend on factors outside the delivered files. Forecasts are labelled assumptions.

Where are you based and when will you reply?

I am based in Pincher Creek, Alberta, and work remotely across Canada. Call times use Mountain Time. I handle enquiries personally. Care response and repair timing are agreed in your signed scope.

What should I bring to the first call?

Tell me what needs to be delivered, who will use it, when it is needed and what material is ready. Share examples, an existing website or relevant files if you have them. I will use that information to recommend a scope.

Do I need to be technical to work with you?

You need to describe the business, supply the agreed material and review the work. I handle the agreed design, copy and build. At handoff, I explain the files, accounts and update process. A static website is edited through its files. If you need a visual editor, tell me before the scope is agreed. Read the platform and ownership explanation.

How does a remote project work?

I work remotely across Canada. I gather the brief and files, agree the scope and share work for review. I ask for consolidated feedback so each revision round has a clear list. Appointments and response hours use Mountain Time. The proposal records review dates and how missing material affects delivery.

Which platform will my website use?

Launch and Growth use custom HTML, CSS and JavaScript by default. They do not include a CMS or live store checkout. If you need staff editing, a store or a specific integration, I assess that requirement and quote the platform work separately. Hosting, paid apps and platform subscriptions are separate costs. I confirm the choice before you approve the scope.

Can you redesign my existing website?

Yes. I start with the pages, customer tasks, existing URLs, content and access. I agree what stays, what is rebuilt and which redirects are needed. A redesign is quoted for its actual scope. I can check the search migration, but I do not guarantee that rankings will remain unchanged. Read the website services.

Do you write the website copy?

Yes. Copy is included within the Launch and Growth page allowance. I use your brief, offer, customer questions and supplied evidence. You check the business facts before approval. I do not invent reviews, credentials or results. Articles, extra pages, product catalogues and other content outside the build scope need a separate quote. See the copy and content services.

Can I arrange monthly content?

Yes. I quote the format, number of pieces, source material, review process and publishing responsibility. That can include articles, social captions, newsletters or a content calendar. I do not promise every format in one fixed monthly fee. Recording-based repurposing and other new formats marked as pilots need a relevant sample and confirmed scope first. Request a content quote.

How does business-plan writing work?

I gather the business model, customer evidence, costs, operating process and funding purpose. I research the agreed market questions and build a draft with labelled financial assumptions. You check the records and forecasts. I then revise the agreed sections and deliver the specified document and working model. Price, review rounds and deadline are set in the quote. A plan does not guarantee finance. Read the planning scope.

Can you help with funding beyond a website project?

I can prepare a sourced program shortlist, eligibility questions, an application narrative, budget and evidence checklist for an agreed business project. I first check the administrator’s current rules. You supply the records and approve the facts. I quote preparation work; I do not decide eligibility or the award. Do not assume an application fee or website cost is reimbursable. Read the funding checklist.

Ask me directly.

I handle enquiries personally. I will answer the questions that apply to your project. Appointments and response hours use Mountain Time.
