03 / Premium: walk in before you drive
Let them walk in before they drive over.
With Premium, I build a 3D walk-in of your place from photos and measurements taken inside. These three are made-up places I built from scratch to show what that looks like.
A salon you scroll through
Your thumb walks the camera from the front desk past the chairs to the shampoo bowls.
An Acadian house at dusk
Up the porch steps, through the French doors, into the kitchen. The same walk-in, for a builder or a realtor.
Machines, products and vertical reels live in the 3D department. See BuiltFirst 3D
04 / How it goes
No proposal. No deposit. Just the site.
- 1
I find you before you find me.
Your reviews, your hours, your photos, what people around here actually search for. Before I write a line.
- 2
I build the whole site.
Not a mockup. The real thing, with your phone number on it, working on a phone.
- 3
I bring it to you.
I hand you my phone. You scroll it like a customer would. Nothing to sign yet.
- 4
You decide.
Want it? It goes live on your own domain. If I can't get it live, you don't pay. No proposal, no discovery call, no deposit.
05 / Packages
Three packages. SEO comes with every one.
You know the number before you call. You pay for the build once, after you've seen it finished. The Care Plan starts the day it goes live, and you can cancel it any time by text.
Standard
One page, a moving photo of your place at the top, tap to call, text or book, set up so Google can find you
$2,000+ $99/mo Care Plan
Pro
Up to six pages, a walk-through filmed at your place for the top, Google set-up plus set-up for ChatGPT-style search
$4,000+ $200/mo Care Plan
Premium
Everything in Pro, a photo and video shoot, a 3D tour of your place, and two extras you pick from a written list (like online booking or a Spanish version)
$7,000+ $400/mo Care Plan
The Care Plan, on every package
The monthly part. It starts the day your site goes live, and you can cancel it any time by text. SEO is set up in every build, so there is no monthly SEO plan.
- Hosting arranged and looked after
- Backups, security and uptime watched
- Small edits by text
- Google Business Profile kept current
- A short monthly note on what happened
- A person who picks up when it breaks

06 / Questions
Questions
Are these your clients?
J. Elliot Salon is named because we built this site for J. Elliot. The other six are concept builds I made on my own for businesses around here, before anyone asked. Their names, numbers and addresses are covered, and they are shown here as pictures only. The 3D walk-ins are concept places I built from scratch.
What's the catch?
There isn't a deposit, a proposal or a contract before you've seen it. If you say no, I've lost a day of work. That's the whole risk, and it's mine.
Who owns it?
You do. The domain stays in your name, the site is yours once you've paid, and if you ever leave I hand over everything the same day and don't charge you to release it.
What if I need changes later?
Small edits are part of the Care Plan: hours, a price, a photo, a typo. Text me and it's done. Anything bigger gets a quote before I touch it.
How long until it's live?
The site is built before you ever see it, so the build isn't the wait. Going live is usually inside the week. The slow part is always finding the login for your domain.
Do you come to me?
Youngsville, Broussard, Lafayette and anywhere I can drive to in a morning, yes. Farther than that, I'll send you a link and we'll talk on the phone.
Could I do this myself with AI?
Probably. I build with AI too, which is part of why this starts at $2,000. The job is knowing what to ask for: your Google listing, a number that taps to call, a tab that says your business name instead of Home, photos that load on a truck's signal. It's done, and it's not sitting on your weekend.
Your turn
Want to see yours before you decide?
Text or call. Tell me the name of the business and what town. If it's somewhere I can drive to, I'd rather come show you than send a link.
