Your website,
finished before you pay.

There isn't one, and here's the real reason. I have no office to pay for, no sales team, no project manager sending you status reports. I work alone, with modern tools that let me move fast without cutting quality.

An agency charges $8,000 because it has salaries and rent to cover — not because your site is worth $8,000 of work. I build showcase sites for local businesses: it's work I do well and quickly, so I sell it at a matching price.

Yes. It's the point I insist on the most. You will never write a line of code. You click on the text you want to change, you type, you press "Update". For a photo, you click on it and choose the new one. It's the same gesture as in Word.

And I record a video made on your own site, where I change your real text and your real photos. You keep it. If you hire someone in six months, you send them the video.

You tell me and it stops there. You owe me nothing, there's no invoice, no cancellation fee, no signed contract. I delete the demo and we wish each other well.

In practice it rarely happens, because before disliking a demo people first tell me what's wrong — and I fix it. Two rounds of adjustments are included before money is even mentioned.

From our first conversation to the demo in your hands: 3 to 5 days. From your "yes" to going live: 1 to 2 more days. So about a week in total.

The only thing that can slow it down is you — if you take ten days to confirm your opening hours, the site waits. I'll follow up gently, without hounding you.

No, and that matters to me. The domain name is bought in your name, with your card, in your account. Same for the hosting. The site files are yours, and I hand them over on request.

If tomorrow you want to work with an agency in Montreal, you give them your access and everything carries on. No serious agency should hold you hostage. Plenty still do.

Yes, and it's actually simpler: I already have your text and your photos. I build the new version alongside, without ever touching the old one. Your current site stays online the whole time.

The day you approve, we switch over — it takes a few minutes and it's reversible. Your customers never see a blank page.

No. Not one monthly cent is ever paid to me. You pay me once, on the day the site goes live, and that's the end of it between us financially.

There are monthly costs, but they go elsewhere: to the host that keeps your site running 24 hours a day ($10 to $20 per month, WordPress already installed) and to the registrar that rents you your web address ($20 to $30 per year). You open both accounts yourself, with your card — I walk you through it on screen, at no charge and with no commission.

WordPress and Elementor cost nothing: they're free software. The one exception is WordPress.com, which requires its "Business" plan at around $40 per month to allow Elementor. That's why I recommend a classic host instead.

And if one day you'd rather I make a change than do it yourself, we agree on it then, per job. Never an imposed subscription.

That's the case for most of the businesses I meet. The text, I write it. The photos, I source from royalty-free libraries licensed for commercial use — you'll never have a legal problem with them.

As for the logo: I can create one for you in the Signature package, or work up something simple and clean in the other packages. A badly made homemade logo does more harm than a nice name well laid out.

Yes, and here's exactly what that means, because the phrase hides three very different things:

1. An appointment request form. The customer fills in their details and availability, you get it all by email, you call them back. It's free, included in all my packages, and for most small businesses it's more than enough.

2. A real calendar with your availability. The customer sees the open slots and books themselves. This is possible in WordPress with a free plugin — with one honest limit: the free versions generally only accept one service type and one staff member. For a solo massage therapist, that's perfect. For a salon with four people and twenty services, you need the paid version of the plugin, around $100 to $200 per year, paid to the plugin maker and not to me.

3. Booking with a deposit payment. Now we're into e-commerce: it's doable, but it falls outside my packages and I'll tell you so honestly.

And if you already use a system — Clic Santé, Calendly, Square, GOrendezvous — I simply connect it to your site. That's often the best solution: you keep your habits.

Your site exists in two complete versions, French and English, with a small language switcher at the top of the page. Google indexes them separately: a customer searching in English finds you in English.

It's built with a free WordPress plugin, and I write the English version myself — you have nothing to translate. You'll then be able to edit both versions by clicking, exactly like the French one.

It's included in the Professional and Signature packages. In Montreal and Laval, it's almost always worth it. This very site is a working example of it.

Anywhere in Quebec, and elsewhere in Canada. Everything happens by phone, email and video call. I've never needed to sit in a client's office to build their site.

If you're in Greater Montreal and would rather meet in person, that's possible and I'd be glad to.

Interac e-transfer, cheque or credit card, whichever suits you. The full amount when the site goes live, or in two instalments if that works better — half at launch, half 30 days later. An official invoice is provided either way.
