THE TAILORED EXPERIENCE

Web Discovery + Content Review

Our discovery process has been fine-tuned and refined to help you gather all of your creative assets and technical details in one place so we’re all ready to hit the ground running during your Intensive without waiting on loose ends. 

Website Style Guide

Prior to your Intensive, we’ll kick-off your project with a 30-min team call to go over your website style guide and discovery to make sure everyone is on the same page and shares the same vision for what your site will be when it’s complete.

Showit Support

Learning a new platform can have its challenges, even with thorough training. This is why we offer a 30-day support window for you to ask all the questions (big and small!) as you begin to use your new site. Think of a new idea or page you’d like to add?

Launch Prep

We are nutty about the details. Prior to launch, we’ll do a team-wide check to make sure everything is working properly, is primed & optimized to attract your clients, and most of all—looks absolutely swoon-worthy. When all systems point to go, we’ll make sure you have the tools, resources, and training to press go and watch the new inquiries roll in.

how this works

It's time to think beyond the template. Our signature Web Intensive experience combines tried-and-true story-driven design philosophy, streamlined creative process, and proven strategic approach with the conversion-driven visual framework of a template built with UX in mind, to deliver a stunning site that feels tailor made for your brand... at a fraction of the cost, and less than half the time.

Not to brag, but we’ve launched a lot of brands and websites. Over 200 since 2014 to be exact. So that template you’re trying to wrangle into something that feels like you? We’ve got you covered. You’re in good hands and can trust that we’re not going to let you launch something basic. Your business deserves more, and we’re the ones for the job.


Web Intensive

Our Web Intense is a two-week completely dialed but spacious experience. We're efficient with our time, while still giving you the space to review and make edits. Our team is highly skilled, extremely experienced, and dedicated to making sure your website is perfectly crafted and one-of-a-kind. Want to know more? Here are all the details.

A tangible baseline

TONIC's templates are already designed & programmed to perfection, built with pages and pages of stunning, customizable sections. Because we can see what's available, we can easily edit, refine, and make changes to remodel and structure the site that best fits your needs.

Benefits of Starting with a Template vs. Custom Design

acCelerated timeline

Because we're tailoring a template rather than starting from scratch, the timeframe can be cut down significantly. While custom sites with our studio typically take between 2-3 months, a template customization can happen in as little as two weeks. 

Proven framework 

TONIC's templates are the industry go-to favorites because their strategy is second to none — they're designed with a proven model that’s built to convert. There’s a reason everyone can’t stop talking about them!

BUILT TO GET TO YOU CLIENTS WITH EASE

Deciding on a TONIC template

Short answer—no. Do we strike you as the kind of agency that likes to follow the crowd? Our commitment is to “remodel” your template to be a stunning representation of you and your brand. The template is just the bones, the framework of your online “house.” We’re the makeover team, and can’t wait to show you the big reveal.

Wait, so I'd be starting with a template? Does that mean I'm going to end up with a site that looks like everyone else's?

01/05

We’ve got you covered. We’ve worked with nearly every TONIC website template and know the strengths of each. Weakness? There really aren’t any. You can’t go wrong when it comes to TONIC, and even if you really do believe you made the wrong choice, TONIC’s team will let you switch it out. All you have to do is ask!

What if I pick the wrong template, will it mess up my whole website?

02/05

Not as part of the standard Web Intensive. You can add branding services, which include logo creation, font and color selections, and art direction by purchasing the a Brand Intensive at checkout for a discounted price when purchased alongside our signature Web Intensive. You can also add on copywriting or photography curation at an additional cost.

Does this mean you’ll be writing my copy, selecting my colors and fonts, and curating my photography too?

03/05

Honestly… it’s not possible and here’s why. You have control in every decision along the way. From selecting the template, to deciding on the content, and even being a part of designing the site. You’re not going to be surprised (in a bad way) by the end result. Just impressed that you had this level of creativity in you! Trust me, every client is always blown away by the results and proud to share their new site with the world. 100% of the time!

What if I hate my site? What happens then?

04/05

We have an ongoing website maintenance package that will allow us to update and add to your site as your business grows. Because we know that great sites lead to great sales... and from there your business, and website needs, are going to grow with you. Leave it to the agency that helped you launch your business to also be there when you scale. We've got you covered.

What if I want to add more pages to my website post-launch?
