# How it works

Help the right clients find you, check you're a fit, and get in touch. Here's how we get you there, in about 10 working days.

1. **Get your growth check.** Enter your website address. In about a minute you see how you're found, how well prospects can qualify themselves and how easy it is to get in touch.
2. **See your preview.** We build a private preview of your homepage, fixed, from your own public information. Nothing is invented: where we don't know a fact, it's a placeholder.
3. **A 15-minute call.** We go through the check and the preview with you.
4. **We build it.** About 10 working days from sign-off.
5. **You approve it** on a private preview link.
6. **We move your domain safely,** without breaking your email.
7. **We look after it.** A monthly report, and changes by email.

## What we need from you
- Your logo, if you have one
- Your domain login, or the name of the company it's registered with
- Your sign-off on the preview

## What a person checks
Every preview and every change before it goes live: facts, prices, regulated wording and anything that touches your domain.

## FAQ
- **What if we already have a website?** We rebuild it and set up redirects from your old pages so you keep your search history.
- **Will our email keep working?** Yes. We only change the records the website needs, and a person checks every DNS change.
- **How much of our time does it take?** About an hour in total: the call, sending your logo and domain details, and reviewing the preview.
