[Everything on this row]

1. [01]

   What you get

   • One page
   • simple functionality
   • hosting set up
   • domain bought with you or provided by us

   Simple functionality means the things a visitor actually does: tap the number and the phone dials, tap the address and the map app opens, send a message and it arrives in the inbox you already read. Hosting set up means the site is live on an account in your name, with your login — the studio configures it and hands you the keys rather than keeping them. If you own a domain, we point it at the site. If you do not, we buy it with you, on your card and in your name. It is never registered to the studio and never sold back to you later.

   What it costs

   $650$395−39%$358 with Switchboard (−45%)

   Offers do not stack. You always get the lowest eligible price.

   Double priority costs 30% on top — $119 on this row — and your build takes the next free slot ahead of standard work, which halves Marker's cap to 24 hours. It buys a position in the queue, not corners cut: the page count, the revision rounds and the signed scope are exactly the ones you would have had at the standard price.

3. [03]

   How long it takes, and what the clock counts

   [Max 48H][One page, one revision round]

   Turnaround is counted from the moment we accept the brief, not from the moment you send it. 48H is the longest the studio will take on Marker at the scope above — it is a cap, not an average, and it belongs to this row rather than to the studio.

   Time the studio spends waiting on you — content, access, approvals, an answer to a question — does not count against it. The terms are in the offer, in the clause about the clock.

4. [04]

   What happens, day by day

   1. [01 · The brief]You tell us what the business does, who it is for, and the one thing a visitor should do next — call, book, or walk in.
   2. [02 · The quote]We read it and answer with a price and a scope in writing. If what you have described belongs on a bigger row, we say so there, before you have paid anything.
   3. [03 · The first instalment]The instalment clears and the clock starts. Nothing is built before it does, and nothing is owed before the studio has accepted the brief.
   4. [04 · The build]The page is built from your words and your photographs, on hosting registered to you, at a real address you can open on your phone while it is being made.
   5. [05 · The revision round]You look at the finished page and mark what is wrong. Send it back in one list rather than in messages across a week — the studio is holding a slot for you, and the cap is running while it does. The count is published on the card, in these words: “One page, one revision round”.
   6. [06 · Handover]There is nothing to hand over that was not already yours: the domain, the hosting and the logins were in your name from the day they were bought. Handover is the studio stepping back.
5. [05]

   What you have to give us

   The words for the page, or notes clear enough to write them from. A logo if you have one, in whatever file your printer or designer sent — the original, not a screenshot of the sign. Photographs of your actual work: a job you finished, taken on a phone in daylight, beats a stock photo of somebody else's. If you already own a domain, the login to wherever you bought it. And the name of the person who signs off, which on a business this size is usually you. Everything on that list is something only you have, and it is why the clock stops while the studio is waiting: the cap covers our work, not the week a photograph spent on somebody's phone.

6. [06]

   What is not included

   • Extra pages. The moment a menu, a price list or a service list needs an address of its own, the row above is the one to buy.
   • Copywriting from nothing. The studio edits and lays out what you send; it does not invent your offer for you.
   • Photography, and the licence for any stock image you want bought.
   • Logo and brand design. That is a different trade, and hiring the studio for it would be hiring the wrong people.
   • Changes after handover. The site is yours to edit; if you would rather somebody else did it, that is a monthly plan.

   None of that is a refusal, and none of it is priced by surprise. Work beyond the scope on this row is new work, and it is quoted and agreed the same way before it begins — the offer says so in the clause about what you are buying.

7. [07]

   Compass instead?

   Choose Marker when one screen carries the whole offer and the next thing you want from a visitor is a phone call.

   • Compass — up to 3 pages, $765Choose Compass the moment a menu, a price list or a services page needs an address of its own, and you would rather enquiries arrived written down than as a missed call.
8. [08]

   After launch

   A single page left alone keeps working, and no plan is required for it to stay up. What a plan buys is somebody watching it — backups, updates, and the small changes you would otherwise be making yourself on a Sunday night.

   Switchboard is also the plan that earns the member price above: while it is active, Marker is $358 against its $650 list price, which is 45% off. What each plan covers and what each costs is on the monthly page.

9. [09]

   The terms

   Payment is in two instalments: the first when the studio accepts your brief and the price and scope are fixed, the second on delivery, before the site is handed over. Work does not begin before the first one clears, and nothing is owed until the brief has been accepted. The split is printed in the offer, in the clause about payment.

   Your code, your domain, your accounts — yours from day one. The studio registers nothing in its own name: at handover the code, the domain, the hosting, the analytics and the ad accounts are in your name and under your control, whether or not you stay on a monthly plan afterwards.
