Show your work

A website that says what you do and where

Plenty of good crews have no website, or one nobody has touched in years. CrewBuddy builds a small one from a few texts and keeps it current.

What you send: Your services, the towns you work in, hours, phone, your license number if your state requires it, a few lines on how you work, and a domain name if you have one.
What you send
What you get: A small site with Home, Services, Service area and a quote request that opens a ready-written text to your phone, checked on phone and computer screens before it goes public.

Fictional example.

You: Make me a website. Interior and exterior painting, Fairview, Oak Hill and Linden, license 1048231, free estimates, 7 to 5 weekdays.
CrewBuddy: Draft ready: Home, Services, Service area and Get a quote, in your green and gray, license number in the footer. Checked on a phone and a computer; screenshots are on your private page. The quote button opens a text to your cell. Want it live?

What goes on it

A home page that says what you do and where in the first line, a services page in your own words, a service area page with your towns, and a Get a quote page. The quote button opens a ready-written text to your phone in the customer’s own messages, so each request reaches you as a text from that person. The site does not store what visitors type.

Only facts you confirm go on it. “Free estimates”, “licensed” or “insured” appear only when you say they are true now. Many states require the license number in ads and on websites, and California’s board lists websites among the places it must appear, so CrewBuddy puts it in the footer when you give it.

Checked, then live

After each change, CrewBuddy builds a preview and checks it on phone and computer screens: menus open, buttons work, nothing scrolls sideways. You see the screenshots first. Going live takes a one-time code you text back for that exact version, and a bad change can be rolled back the same way. Sites are published to Netlify, a website host, and we set up the hosting and your domain with you.

Photos cannot be placed on the site yet, so the design leans on your colors and clear writing. A captioned before-and-after video can go on it.

What CrewBuddy prepares

A small site with Home, Services, Service area and a quote request that opens a ready-written text to your phone, checked on phone and computer screens before it goes public.

What to keep in mind

We switch on the Website add-on and publishing with you. Photos cannot be placed on the site yet, though a before-and-after video can. Each version goes live only with your code.
