HOW WE WORK Clear Projects. Less Friction. Better Handoffs. A written-first workflow for websites, software, AI and ongoing digital work — so scope, decisions, feedback and ownership stay clear from the first message to launch. See the Process Contact SiteLumo Meetings are optional. Written communication is the default. PROJECT ROUTE Five clear checkpoints Different services, same simple client experience. 01 Choose the right path 02 Define the scope 03 Send the materials 04 Build & review 05 Launch & handover STARTING A PROJECT Two ways to start — depending on the work A standard package should feel simple. Custom work should be clarified before money and development move. FIXED-PRICE WEBSITE Choose the package. Pay. Send the brief. For One-Page Website, Business Website and Online Store. Package → WooCommerce checkout → Website Project Brief → Build → Review → Launch Explore Website Options CUSTOM / QUOTED WORK Clarify the job before development starts For software, apps, AI, maintenance, redesigns and complex web work. Quote request → Written clarification → Scope & quote → Deposit / milestone → Build → Review → Delivery Request a Quote THE PROCESS Six checkpoints from first message to handover No card wall. No maze of meetings. Just clear stages and a clear next step. 01 Start in the right place Choose a fixed website package when it fits, or use Request a Quote for custom and complex work. 02 Define the scope Confirm pages, features, integrations, responsibilities, exclusions, price and payment structure. 03 Send project materials After purchase or deposit, provide the Website Project Brief, content, references, files and the access actually needed. 04 Build in clear stages Implementation follows the agreed scope. Preview links, screenshots or working builds are shared for review. 05 Review in writing Send consolidated feedback using exact pages, URLs, screenshots or screen names. 06 Launch and hand over Complete final checks, remaining payment if applicable, delivery, access and the agreed next responsibility. WRITTEN-FIRST Run the project without living in meetings Requirements, decisions, links, screenshots, feedback and approvals stay written down so everyone can see what was agreed and what happens next. Calls can still happen when they genuinely help — they are just not the default workflow. Requirements stay visible Scope and important decisions do not disappear into memory. Feedback gets specific Screenshots and URLs make changes easier to understand. Approvals are explicit Key decisions stay traceable before the next stage starts. THE THREE ENTRY POINTS Contact, Quote and Website Project Brief have different jobs GENERAL QUESTION Contact Use it for a normal enquiry when you are not yet asking for custom pricing. Contact BEFORE CUSTOM WORK Request a Quote Use it to describe custom work so scope and pricing can be clarified first. Request a Quote AFTER PURCHASE / DEPOSIT Website Project Brief Use it after the project starts to send detailed requirements, files and references. Website Project Brief PAYMENT Fixed-price websites and custom work do not use the same flow Standard websites: pay through WooCommerce, then complete the Website Project Brief. Custom projects: normally 50% before work and 50% before final launch or delivery. Large projects may use milestones. SCOPE CHANGES New work is confirmed before it becomes part of the old work If a materially new page, feature, integration or responsibility appears after scope approval, it is clarified and priced before being added. No surprise work. No surprise invoice. LAUNCH & HANDOVER Finish in a clear state Final checks, access, ownership, handover and the next responsibility should all be understood before the project closes. After launch Included supportAny support included with a package follows the purchased scope. Ongoing maintenanceContinuing care can be scoped separately when needed. Future workNew phases stay separate unless they are formally added. COMMON QUESTIONS A few things customers usually want to know Do I have to join a call? No. Written communication is the default.
