Top Ten Reasons Not To Work With Us…
you’re shopping for the cheapest price
just to be clear, we are definitely not the cheapest price. nor are we the most expensive. if you’re not looking to invest in your business with something that could and should bring you far more than you invest, then we are not a good fit. we strive to provide value, but we also put a lot of time and effort into what we do for our clients and it shows in the marketing and websites we create for you.
you think you’re a designer
design is so much more than what looks pretty. we focus not only on what looks good, but what works. there is much more to a website than whatever your favorite color is. We apply an aesthetic code to compliment what you have shown us and how you have described your business. we do this for a living. if you want to nitpick every element of design, we are not good fit.
you are too busy to communicate
we have been building websites for over 20 years. we don’t need our hand held. however, the success of your website is heavily linked to your participation and communication. when we ask for content or images, we truly need your attention and your input. your website can only be as good as your communication with us.
you want someone to just take orders
some people need to control everything. we get it. however, if you want to take full reign on your projects, it’s not going to work. it’s like telling your mechanic how to fix your car or your dentist how to fix your teeth. we are professionals at what we do. You hire us to take charge of this part of your business. If that doesn’t work for you, neither can we.
you can’t adhere to timely payments
when we choose to work together, we are building a relationship based on trust. when we deliver the work promised, we expect payment on time, just as you do from your clients and patients. it sucks to have to chase payment when we have worked so hard on your behalf. plus we don’t like being mean, but not paying is a great way to get a reputation and maybe even lose your website.
you think web design is easy
first of all, if it were easy, you would be doing this yourself. there is a lot that goes into coding and designing a website to make it flow right and work right. Your site has to work on more than just your computer. there is no such thing as “can’t you easily just…” everything involves some sort of code, styling and logic. sometimes that one more thing can crash everything.
you don’t trust professionals
we create websites and do marketing for a living and have for decades. You hire us for that expertise. If we used your services we would trust you were the expert in that arena. If you can’t afford the same level of trust to us and our business, then are not a good fit. just as there is no app that can replace your expertise, there is no app that does what we do as well as we do it.
designers and suppliers keep firing you
if that keeps happening, we’re sorry. who knows the exact reason, but if this is a reoccurring theme in your business relationships, then something is amiss. we’re not saying we will not give things a shot, but perhaps a mirror might be called for before we are called for. we want to enjoy working with our clients for months and years to come, and hopefully the feeling with be mutual.
you’re not sure you want to work with us
we aren’t here to twist arms or blow smoke up your @$$. we are here to help you and help your business take the next step in your success. if you aren’t comfortable working with us, tell us. perhaps there is some misunderstanding we can correct. perhaps you will be more comfortable working with someone else. we want what’s best for you and sometimes that’s not us.
you hate awesome!
we take pride in our work. We take pride in our relationships. we want to work with the best to build the best websites and do the best marketing for our clients. to use a sports metaphor, we don’t bat 1000, but we have hall of fame written all over the work we do for our clients. we would like to put that effort and energy to work for you and your business, letting you enjoy your business once again.
