Seven rebuilds, seven different verticals. One studio.

FIG. 01 | Financial Services / 2025 Trust & Estate Planning

Heritage Wealth Solutions

A trust and estate planning practice running on a dated template that didn’t reflect the seriousness of the work. We rebuilt the site around a trust-focused full-screen brand experience and wired the consultation form directly into the CRM, so qualified inquiries route in seconds, not days.

QCAA Foundation

The Quad-County African American Foundation needed a site that did three jobs at once: collect donations, run a scholarship portal, and surface a real event calendar. We built a single WordPress site with a Stripe-backed donation flow and a custom portal that staff can manage in-house.

FIG. 06: Business Consulting / 2026 Oxnard, CA Studio

Hot Dog Business Growth

A 36-year-old California consulting firm with a generic Divi template was buried in the crowd. We replaced it with a brand-led site: a provocation hero, a numbers strip that puts the credentials above the fold, and an embedded contact form so prospects don’t have to hunt for the next step.

STACK: Hand-coded · Custom HTML · Blank-canvas WP  ·  RESULT: Brand-led pitch · Embedded lead form

FIG. 07: E-Commerce / B2B / 2026 ID Card Printers · Woodridge, IL

Card Imaging

An authorized ID card printer dealer and service center, family-run since 1984, stuck on a thin 17-page site that hid its catalog and expertise. We rebuilt it into a 440-page hand-coded e-commerce and resource platform: a full printer, ribbon, and card catalog, industry and city landing pages, a guided printer finder, a glossary and video library, and a self-serve software store.

STACK: WP · Custom Template Engine · Catalog · Square  ·  RESULT: 17 → 440+ pages · E-commerce · Local + industry SEO
