Agency quotes vs founder price

12 May 2026 · 5 min read

Thousands upfront for a template, or £0 setup and £49/m managed. Let's put the quotes side by side.

You've probably had the quote. Fifteen hundred to three thousand upfront. Then monthly hosting. Then "support packages". Then extras every time you breathe near the site.

For what? Often a WordPress theme with your logo dropped in and stock photos of someone else's van.

What the big number buys

It buys their process. Discovery workshops. Moodboards. Two months of calendar. A project manager who emails you to ask what colour blue you meant.

It does not buy ownership of a fast custom stack. It buys their favourite template and a smile.

How I do it

£0 setup. Free preview. Founder price £49/m if you want it live. I build it, host it, change it when you email me. Support included.

No minimum term. If it's not working for you, you're not locked into a fairy tale contract.

I'm not anti-agency. I'm anti-faff.

If you want a brand film and a 40 page strategy deck, go pay for that. If you want a site that gets local jobs and stays out of your way, talk to me.
