SOUND FAMILIAR?
Does this sound like your website?
If any of these feel familiar, you are not alone. Most small business websites have at least one of these problems - and all of them are fixable.
Any of these? That is exactly what I fix.
It looks dated, and you would rather not send new customers to it.
People cannot find you on Google when they search for what you do.
It falls apart on a phone, which is where most of your customers are.
Someone built it once, then you never heard from them again.
Customers are asking AI for recommendations now, and your business is not coming up.
HOW I CAN HELP
Every small business is different.
The goal is the same.
A new site built around how your customers actually buy and interact.
Turn a tired site into one that wins work, ranking intact.
Get found by people already searching for what you do.
A plain-English look at what's holding your site back.
Updates and fixes from a real person, not a ticket queue.
WHY EMPIRE FOUNDATIONS?
More than a website.
I don't just build websites. I help small businesses create stronger digital foundations that attract customers, build trust and support long-term growth.
You'll work directly with me
No account managers or hand-offs. From our first conversation to launch, you'll deal directly with me.
20+ years of digital experience
Experience across ecommerce, websites, marketing and customer experience, helping businesses grow online.
Built for small business reality
Practical solutions designed for tradies, cafés, retailers and service businesses - not large corporate budgets.
Ready to grow with you
Whether you need a new website, SEO, or ongoing support, your digital presence can grow as your business grows.
Local. Personal. Results focused.
Proudly supporting New Zealand small businesses.
HOW IT WORKS
A straightforward process, from first chat to finished site.
01
We have a conversation
I learn about your business, your customers, and what you actually need the site to do. No forms. Just a straightforward chat.
02
I send you a proposal
A clear outline of what I'll build, what it costs, and what I need from you. No surprises, no fine print, and a timeframe you can plan around.
03
I build and keep you in the loop
You'll see progress as it happens. I check in, you give feedback, and we refine until it's right. Nothing goes live until you're happy with it.
04
Your site goes live
I handle the launch and make sure everything is working. Then I set up analytics so you can see how the site is performing, and suggest practical improvements as they come up.
