Let's work out if your website is leaving clients on the table.
20 minutes. We go through what you do, what you need from a website, and whether I'm the right person to build it.
WHAT WE'LL GO THROUGH ON THE CALL
20 minutes. Three things. No pitch deck, no script, just a proper conversation.
YOUR BUSINESS
What you do, who you help, and what you need the website to actually do for you. Everything else in the call builds on this.
WHERE THE WEBSITE IS FALLING SHORT
What's there now and what it's actually costing you. The time you spend selling yourself on every new call. The enquiries that don't come in. The prospects who look you up and quietly move on.
WHETHER WE'RE A GOOD FIT
Honest conversation, both ways. If it makes sense, we get started. If it doesn't, I'll say so. Better to find out in 20 minutes than six weeks in.
THREE STEPS. DEAD SIMPLE.
PICK A TIME ABOVE
Grab a slot on the calendar. 20 minutes on Zoom or Google Meet, whichever works for you. Takes about 30 seconds to book.
WE GET ON THE CALL
20 minutes together. Your business, your current website, whether we're a good fit. No pitch, no pressure. If we're a go, I make you the offer there and then.
CONTRACT, INVOICE, AND WE CRACK ON
Contract and invoice go out the same day you say yes. Once both are sorted, the questionnaire lands in your inbox. About 30 minutes to fill in properly. That's the brief the whole project gets built on. Within four weeks you've got a website that does some of the selling you're currently doing yourself.
THIS IS FOR YOU IF…
You sell a service and you’re the business. One or two people. Owner-led.
You’re good at what you do. Your clients come back. The referrals come in. But almost everything goes through people you know, and when a new enquiry comes in, you’re doing the same job every time: explaining what you do, justifying the price, convincing someone who doesn’t already know you.
You want a website that does more of that work before you even pick up the phone. And you’re ready to actually sort it, not just think about it.
AND THIS ISN’T FOR YOU IF…
You’re looking for something cheap, quick, or knocked together from a template. Northern Sauce builds proper websites properly. If that’s not what you need right now, no hard feelings.
Questions worth answering before you book a call
Most projects completed within four weeks from start to launch, with one stage of the 4D Framework running each week.
You don't need any copy ready before we start. Every package includes conversion copy written for you, drafted after the Diagnose and Define stages once we know exactly what's working in your business and what your buyers actually respond to.
Every site is built on WordPress, custom coded rather than thrown together with a drag-and-drop page builder. That means it's fast, easy to update, and you can host it wherever you like without being locked into anyone's platform.
Probably. I've built sites for accountants, lawyers, consultants, tradespeople, recruiters, fractional execs, IP firms, EHS specialists, and plenty of others. The work is for any service business owner who takes sales and marketing seriously.
Pre-revenue businesses, anyone shopping purely on price, anyone looking for a long-term creative retainer, big enterprise with procurement processes, and companies that don't actually take sales and marketing seriously. Better to say so up front than waste both our time later on.
You're free to change whatever you like once the site goes live. If you want me involved on something specific, I bill hourly for ad-hoc jobs with no minimum and no retainer.
Yes. You can split the cost into three monthly payments instead of paying it all up front, with a small premium for the convenience. Pay-in-full is the cheaper option and runs as a 50% deposit on signing, and the final 50% on launch.
It's a chat, not a sales pitch. We get to know each other a bit, work out together whether we're a good fit both ways, and only if you're happy with how it's all sounding do we talk figures and next steps.
First the contract and invoice go out for you to look over and get sorted. Once those are in, I send over the discovery questionnaire, which takes about 30 to 60 minutes to fill in, and the project starts properly as soon as that comes back to me. You also get set up on Basecamp, which is what I use for project management and all our communication, so everything stays in one place from day one.
See what people are saying
I’d built a makeshift site on GoDaddy but it looked poor and was probably putting clients off. After rebranding I wanted something professional that matched the image of my business. Dave made the whole process easy, laid back, fast, and full of ideas I wouldn’t have thought of. The new site looks brilliant, works smoothly, saves me time with customers, and I’m now proud to share it. Worth every penny.
Before Northern Sauce, my site was clunky and dated. I needed something that actually reflected my business, and Dave totally nailed it. He was super easy to work with, went above and beyond to help, and completely understood my vibe. The end result is a website that feels exactly like me, just far more professional, and one I’m finally happy to share. Can’t recommend Dave enough.
My website and marketing strategy have been transformed, from a regrettable example of “what not to do” to an absolute masterclass in best practice.
I’d just taken on a block of new clients and needed a professional online presence fast. Dave made the whole process easy, kept everything organised, and turned things around quickly. The new site looks slick, gets great feedback, and makes my business feel far more professional.
We’ve had a great experience working with Northern Sauce. The team was helpful, friendly, and the website is excellent. We’ve already had new customers find us through it, and it’s made us realise a website needs to be far more than just an online presence.
Working with Dave at Northern Sauce was unbelievable. After years of frustration with other web designers, he delivered exactly what we needed, no hidden costs, no nonsense, just clear communication and genuine care. The whole process was simple and stress-free, and the finished website perfectly reflects our business. We’re proud to share it now, and I’d recommend Dave without hesitation.
We would 100% recommend Northern Sauce to anyone wanting a great website. Great service, great support, and always helpful. We’ll continue working with Northern Sauce for the foreseeable future.
As a new business I didn’t have the time or know-how to build a website, so Dave took it all off my plate, design, copy, and plenty of helpful feedback along the way. He was easy to work with, always on hand for questions, and the finished site looks great, feels professional, and makes it far easier to share what I do. I’ve already recommended him to others.
You've been meaning to sort this for a while. Twenty minutes is all it takes to find out if now's the time.
No pitch. No pressure. We work out if it's the right fit and go from there.
