    Why We Switched to a Subscription Website Model

    Why We Switched to a Subscription Website Model

    Why paying $8,000 upfront for a website makes no sense for a growing contractor, and why subscriptions are the future.

    For decades, the web design industry operated on a flawed model: an agency quotes you $5,000 to $10,000 to build a website. You pay half upfront, wait three months, and finally get a site.

    Then, six months later, you need to change a service offering or update a photo. You email the agency, and they send you a bill for $150/hour just to make a simple edit. Eventually, you stop updating the site, and it slowly dies.

    The Old Way

    $8,000 Upfront
    • Huge capital expense
    • Takes 2-3 months to build
    • Pay hourly for every small edit
    • Site gets outdated quickly
    • No built-in lead automation

    Subscription Model

    $97 /mo
    • $0 upfront design cost
    • Live in a matter of days
    • Hosting & maintenance included
    • Always modern and updated
    • Cancel anytime, no contracts

    Why Subscriptions Make Sense for Contractors

    You don't buy the trucks your crew drives in cash; you finance them so you have capital to run the business. Why should your website be any different?

    Digital subscription contract

    A website isn't a static brochure anymore; it's a piece of software that needs hosting, security updates, and active management. By moving to a flat monthly subscription, our interests are perfectly aligned with yours.

    We don't make our money by hitting you with a massive upfront bill and disappearing. We only succeed if we build a site that works so well you want to stay subscribed for years.
