What we build
Five ways to grow your business online.
From a focused first website to an ongoing revenue partnership — each tier is designed around a specific stage of business and a specific type of ambition.
01
Essential Website
For personal brands and small businesses ready to look the part.
Not every business needs a sprawling multi-page build. Sometimes what you need is a tight, beautifully designed site that does one thing well: make you look credible and invite people to get in touch. Custom designed, hand-coded, and built to perform from day one.
What's included
- Up to 5 custom-designed pages
- Mobile-optimised build
- Contact form
- Basic SEO setup
- 30 days post-launch support
Not included
- CMS integration
- E-commerce functionality
- Brand identity work
02
Custom Studio Website
For growing businesses that need something built to last.
Every project starts from a blank canvas. We study your business, your audience, and what makes you worth choosing — then design and build something entirely your own. The kind of site your competitors can't copy, because it's built around what's specific to you.
What's included
- Custom design direction
- Unlimited pages
- CMS integration
- Performance optimisation
- Animation & interaction design
- Full technical SEO setup
- 60 days post-launch support
Not included
- E-commerce & payment processing
- Brand identity from scratch
03
E-commerce & Booking
For businesses that take transactions online.
A transactional website is fundamentally different from a brochure site — every design decision is made in service of the checkout. We build stores and booking systems that are fast, intuitive, and deliberately engineered to reduce abandonment and increase conversion.
What's included
- Custom storefront or booking system design
- Payment gateway integration
- Product or service catalogue architecture
- Cart & checkout flow optimisation
- Inventory or calendar management
- 60 days post-launch support
Not included
- Fulfilment logistics
- Paid advertising management

Revenue Tools
We build the system. You keep the majority. We share in what we generate together.
Some businesses have a clear opportunity to monetise online — but the upfront cost of building the right system is a barrier. Revenue Tools removes that barrier. We design and build the tool at our cost, and in return take a royalty on the revenue it generates. You keep the lion's share. We stay invested in making it perform.
What we build
- Online booking engines for hospitality and services
- Lead capture funnels for high-value service businesses
- Digital products & downloadable guides (per-copy royalty, typically 15–25%)
- Online courses and training programs
- Lookbooks, playbooks, and instructional PDFs
- Membership portals and gated content
How it works
- Revenue share tracked and reported monthly
- 12-month minimum partnership commitment
- Royalty applies only to revenue generated through the tool
- Ongoing optimisation included for the life of the partnership

A 52-page premium digital guide built for FairwayReady™ — sold as a downloadable PDF at $39 CAD per copy. Brickfront designed, wrote, and produced the entire product in exchange for a per-sale royalty.

Royalty per sale
This is the model: we build a real revenue-generating digital product for your business — at no upfront cost — and earn a small share of every sale. Yours could be a lookbook, a course, a guide, a kit, or something we design together.

Care & Growth
Ongoing partnership after launch.
After launch, a lot can happen: content needs updating, something breaks, a new product launches, an opportunity requires a new page. Monthly Care plans mean you're never scrambling. We're already across your site — we just take care of it.
What's included
- Performance monitoring
- Security updates & patching
- Content updates
- Monthly priority support hours
- Ongoing optimisation recommendations
Not included
- Full redesigns
- New brand work
- Major feature development
How it works
The process.
01
Discover
A deep dive into your business, audience, and goals. We ask the questions that surface what actually matters — not just what looks good, but what works.
02
Define
Strategy, sitemap, and content architecture. We lay the foundation before a single pixel is placed — because great design starts with clear thinking.
03
Design
Custom visual direction, interactive mockups, and iteration cycles until every detail is exactly right. Your feedback shapes every screen.
04
Develop
Hand-coded build with obsessive attention to performance, accessibility, and browser compatibility. No shortcuts. No templates. Clean, maintainable code.
05
Deploy & Iterate
Launch, training, and ongoing care. We don't disappear after launch — we stay close, monitor, and keep improving.

Common questions
FAQ.
What makes Brickfront different from a design agency?
Most agencies spread work across a team of specialists, project managers, and junior designers. At Brickfront, you work directly with me on every piece of the project — strategy, design, and code. Fewer handoffs, faster decisions, and work that's coherent from concept to launch.
How does the Revenue Tools royalty work?
We build a revenue-generating tool — a booking engine, lead funnel, membership portal — at no upfront cost to you. In return, we collect 10–20% of the revenue that tool generates, tracked and reported monthly. The exact percentage depends on the tool and its revenue potential. You keep the majority; we stay invested in making it perform.
Do you use templates?
Never. Every project starts from a blank canvas — custom designed and hand-coded for your specific business. The speed advantage of templates disappears the moment you need to customise anything, and the result almost always looks like exactly what it is.
What's a typical project timeline?
Essential websites launch in 5–7 days. Custom Studio websites take 10–14 days. E-commerce, booking systems, and Revenue Tools all complete within 14 days. We work in tight sprints with daily progress updates — no multi-month timelines. Speed without sacrificing craft.
How many clients do you take on at once?
Intentionally few — usually 2–3 active projects at any time. You're not competing for attention with a full client roster. When we're working together, your project is a priority.
Can you work with our existing brand?
Yes — many projects are web-only and work entirely within your existing visual identity. If a brand refresh would make the site significantly more effective, I'll say so, but it's never assumed or pushed.
What CMS do you build with?
It depends on your team's needs and technical comfort. I work with Sanity, Contentful, and Payload, as well as simpler solutions for smaller sites. We choose what you'll actually use confidently — not what's easiest for me to build.
What does post-launch support look like?
Every project includes 30–60 days of included support after launch, covering bug fixes, minor adjustments, and questions. After that, a monthly Care & Growth retainer keeps your site healthy and improving. Many clients find the ongoing relationship the most valuable part.
Have a project
in mind?
I take on a small number of projects each quarter — which means the ones I do take get my full attention. If your timing works, let's talk.
