You built the site yourself and it worked. But now there's so much to update and manage that it's taking all your time!
The web backend is confusing
Listing products feels tedious.
You want the site to stay fresh but don't have the time to update it.
Not to mention troubleshooting bugs and UI issues.
None of it's why you started the business.
I work with you remotely a set number of hours each month, and handle your website updates for you.
Whether you need product listings added, landing pages built, or ongoing site improvements to the user experience, I handle them for you.
Doing these yourself takes hours of your time. But with those hours back, you can focus on what energizes you, whether it's creating, relationship-building, or planning next steps for the business.
And the whole time you know your website content is in good hands: accurate, on-brand, and on-schedule.
We'd discuss your business: the goals you have in mind for it, the problems you're facing, and what would be more ideal. Then we'd talk solutions that could make it happen.
If we seem like a good fit, we book a 5 hour paid trial. You get to see how I communicate and the value I bring before committing to anything ongoing.
5-Hour Trial: Starts $175
If you like how the trial goes, we talk about what an ongoing ideal arrangement would look like. I'd work up an initial package offer, and we'd go from there. There's no obligation either way.

She has a track record of consistently taking care of issues without others ... ever knowing there was anything wrong. Madelyn ... trustworthy, excellent ... and a joy to work with.”
"Maddie consulted with me on a .... project. I only had a sketch and a concept. Maddie guided me in giving an overview of brand identity, how it is used in social media, and what aspects were top priority as I got my footing in this new world. She was a great sounding board for any questions or thoughts I had, showed me how to do some of the design work on my own, and ultimately created a mesmerizing logo that was better than I could have wished for. Pricing was transparent and fair, deliverables were timely, and correspondence was prompt. She is now my go-to ... as my brand expands."
Hi! I'm Madelyn, an LGBT woman from Michigan.
Finding my way, far too often I had to watch out for disrespectful people, shady business practices, and even the government's apathy towards taking take of its citizens. That didn't sit right with me. Everyone deserves be empowered and supported, and I want to help make that happen for people like me.
That's why I partner with queer- and women-owned businesses and organizations, especially ones who seek to uplift others. There's no need to compromise on ethics to get quality support, and they can work with someone who gets where they've been and will help them flourish.
If that sounds like you, and you're short on time or know-how to update your site and want to work with someone ethical who wants to see you succeed, I'd love to hear from you.
A lot of fear with hiring a freelancer is about communication - how often you'll hear from them, if they'll use AI without your knowledge, or if they'll ask you before doing impactful things and forcing you to redo their work.
So here's how I run projects:
Your privacy and security is important to me!
No personal info is shared or sold with outside parties.
Emails, files, logins, passwords, and any public network usage kept secure via Proton's programs: Proton Mail, Proton Drive, Proton Pass, and Proton VPN.
Scopes in writing: You know what's included, what isn't, and what it costs before you agree to it. We're both on the same page about expectations, processes, and next steps. No surprise invoices.
Open Channels: You'll hear from me on a schedule we agree on, and I'll be available during business hours if anything comes up.
When decisions have to be made, I'll bring you options and a recommendation with the reasoning behind it.
If I need to know how you want something done, I'll reach out.
AI is not without controversy, and not right for every situation or brand. You deserve the choice of whether it's used with your projects or setups.
If you'd rather it not be involved at all, that's no problem.
If you do allow AI use, limits would be in writing, and any copy or data it works with would be reviewed for quality, accuracy, and tone. No image/video generation, and no slop output.
You set the list, and I work through it.
Best for: a working site that needs regular updates.
Best for: a working site that could be easier to navigate/shop.
I run the site calendar, and you make the big calls.
Best for: owners ready to stop being the bottleneck, and improve operations.
The next step is a discovery call. It's free and no obligation.
We'll discuss your business needs, goals, what has to happen to get you there, and if a 5-hour trial makes sense as a next step.
I look forward to hearing from you!
Do you have experience in my industry?
I've worked with a variety of industries, including medical field, sign manufacturing, hobbyist acrylic lasering, nonprofit organizations, and promotional product sourcing. Regardless of what industry you're a part of, I learn quickly, am straightforward in what I know and what I'd have to learn, and am committed to delivering quality results for my clients.
How is payment handled?
Payments would need to be made before work starts (for the 5 Hour Paid Trial) and monthly in advance (for Ongoing Work).
If we do decide on ongoing work, would I be stuck in a contract?
Nope! An Ongoing Contract would be month-to-month. Either of us could decide to end the arrangement, just after giving the other a one-month notice.
Do unused monthly hours roll over to the next month?
