I build websites for small businesses, then automate the repetitive work behind them: forms, paperwork, listings, and follow-ups. One person, fixed prices, and I always respond.
You copy the same information from emails into a spreadsheet, then into another system.
Your website is slow or dated, and changing a phone number means calling someone.
Someone on your team loses Friday afternoon making the same documents every week.
You find out something broke because a customer told you.
That's the work I take off your plate.
Pick one, or combine them. Most clients start with a website and add automation once they see what's possible.
Fast, mobile-friendly, and easy for you to update yourself. No page-builder bloat.
Replace the five spreadsheets and the sticky notes with one place your team actually uses.
Take a job you do by hand every week and make it happen on its own, with a record of every run.
I run my own resale business across eBay, Etsy, and Mercari, and most of what I build for clients started as tools I needed myself. When something sells on one site, it's pulled from the others within seconds. When something breaks at 2 a.m., my phone knows before a customer does.
That's how I build for you: plain, reliable tools I'd trust with my own business.
Things I've shipped, and things in the pipe. Client names and links get added as each project goes live and the client signs off on being listed.
Public-facing website with a private admin backend for managing content and records. HIPAA compliant and ADA compliant. Designed, built, and hosted end to end.
Website for a nonprofit foundation that awards grants to locally active charities across Ventura County. Its custom admin panel makes updating the site secure and intuitive: preview edits before they go live, and roll back to any previous version. ADA compliant.
Inventory, listing, and sale-detection system that syncs across eBay, Etsy, and Mercari, with Whatnot in testing. Connects directly via API to QuickBooks, eBay, and Etsy, with browser automation for channels without an API.
Scoped and starting soon. Details posted at launch.
The same four steps every time, so you always know what happens next.
You describe the problem. I ask a lot of questions and tell you honestly whether it's worth building.
What's included, what isn't, the timeline, and the number. Nothing starts until you sign off.
You click through a working version on a live link, not mockups. Your feedback goes into the next pass.
Hosting, monitoring, and a monthly window for changes, or a clean handoff if you'd rather own it.
Hiring one person instead of an agency is a fair thing to think through.
Everything I build uses standard, widely used tools and comes with documentation. You own the code and the accounts, so another developer can pick it up without starting over.
Yes. Everyday edits like text, photos, hours, and prices are built to be simple. Bigger changes fall under your monthly upkeep window.
Fixed price when the scope is clear, hourly when it isn't. Either way, you get a written number before any work starts, and I'll tell you if a project isn't worth the money.
I'm based in Chatsworth and happy to meet in person around the San Fernando Valley, but I work with clients anywhere.
I'm Jake. I've been building websites and software since 2011: client sites, a real-time inventory platform for the wine industry, and operations roles helping teams automate the tedious parts of their day. These days I also run my own resale business, so I build tools the way an owner needs them: reliable, simple to use, and easy to hand off.
I keep scopes small, prices fixed where I can, and I'd rather tell you a project isn't worth doing than sell you a big one.
A rough description is fine. I'll reply within one business day with questions or a time to talk.
Every project is quoted, because every business is different. But you shouldn't have to guess what you're getting into, so here's how it works.
When the scope is clear. You get one number in writing, and that's the number you pay.
For the fuzzy stuff, like exploring a problem before we know the fix. Capped and approved up front.
Hosting, monitoring, and small changes on an ongoing plan. Optional, and cancel anytime.
Timelines are typical ranges. Your quote will spell out exactly what's included for your business.
A fast, mobile-friendly site you can update yourself, new or rebuilt.
One place for your clients, orders, and records, with logins for your team.
Pick the job you do by hand every week and make it run on its own.
Keep it running without thinking about it, billed monthly.
