1-3 page microsite. A "microsite" typically has a more in-depth home/landing page and may include a few simple utility pages like contact us, book a meeting, etc. Cost is determined by complexity of the layout and functionality.
Full marketing or eCommerce site. This website will be totally custom to your needs, unique, branded, and ownable while prioritizing user experience. It will be built so you can easily manage and update your content dynamically, without web development experience.
If you prefer, we can handle the user experience and design ONLY. We will design prototypes and work with your team or a web development partner to build and launch. If you prefer a platform that is not Webflow (Hubspot, WordPress, Shopify, etc.) or want to build an application, we will propose a more customized way to work together.
