Signs you need this now.
Membership platforms need billing, access, content, onboarding, renewals, and support to work as one system. If those pieces are split across plugins and spreadsheets, members feel the friction and staff inherit the cleanup.
Access rules are hard to manage
Different plans, roles, content levels, and expiry rules are handled through brittle plugin settings. One wrong rule gives members the wrong access or blocks paying users.
Renewals and failed payments leak revenue
Cards fail, renewals lapse, and members churn without a clean recovery workflow. The business loses revenue quietly because billing events are not operationalized.
Members do not have a useful dashboard
Users can pay, but they cannot easily manage their profile, subscription, content, invoices, or benefits. Support then becomes the account-management layer.
What you get.
Plan and access-control architecture
Membership tiers, gated content, roles, permissions, and expiry logic are modeled clearly.
Recurring billing integration
Subscriptions, renewals, failed payments, invoices, cancellations, and upgrades can connect to Stripe or another provider.
Member dashboard
Members can manage account details, plan status, invoices, saved content, and available benefits.
Admin membership controls
Staff can search members, adjust access, view subscription status, and handle support cases without developer help.
Content and benefit management
Gated articles, courses, downloads, communities, or member-only tools can be managed from a clean content model.
Retention and reporting dashboards
MRR, churn, failed payments, active members, upgrades, and plan performance are visible in reports.
Three ways to work together.
Scoped in milestones, not one large commitment. Every engagement is quoted against a written plan; no figure gets invented before the scope is understood.
Core Site Build
A focused, fast website
Best for: A clear scope: the pages and features you actually need, nothing speculative
- Custom design and development as scoped for this service
- CMS setup so your team can update content
- On-page SEO structure and schema at launch
- Handover documentation and a walkthrough
Full Platform Build
A complete, growth-ready platform
Best for: A larger site with custom functionality, integrations, or a content model built to scale
- Everything in Core Site Build
- Custom functionality and third-party integrations
- Full performance and Core Web Vitals budget enforced
- Information architecture designed to add pages/sections without a redesign
Ongoing Development Retainer
Continued work after launch
Best for: A live site that needs regular new features, content builds, or upkeep
- Ongoing feature and content development
- Regular technical health checks
- Priority turnaround on fixes and requests
- No obligation past a single milestone at a time
Four steps, no mystery.
Quick scoping call
A short call (or async over WhatsApp) to understand what you're working with and what "done" actually looks like for you.
Fixed scope, no surprises
A clear written plan of what's included and how long it takes, before any work starts.
The actual work
Progress you can see, not a black box. You get updates as milestones land, not just a status report at the end.
Handover
Everything documented and handed over cleanly, with a walkthrough so your team isn't stuck waiting on me for routine changes.
