Start at the counter
Each feature comes from something the staff do by hand or explain over the phone. The cut sheet, the holiday order, the alert on the lobby TV.

Mancini
I design and build websites and the systems behind them, for businesses that have no one on staff to keep them running. Lately that has meant a butcher shop in Kansas, a condo lobby in Denver and a dog daycare.
Two recent builds
Moeder's Meats, rebuilt
A Kansas butcher shop moved from a slow page-builder theme to a fast front end, with WordPress kept for the staff.

Signs that run themselves
A TV sign system that stays current on its own, built for a butcher shop, a condo lobby and a dog daycare.

Three habits
Keep the tools people know
If the staff already edit in WordPress, WordPress stays. I change what the customer sees and leave the habits alone.
Make it run without me
Specials expire, alerts take themselves down and empty slides drop out. A site or sign should stay current after I hand it over.
