We come to your office or shop and look at your Wi-Fi, what happens when the internet drops, whether guests and devices are kept off your business network, your phones, your email security, your backups and how your website looks on a phone. You get a one-page findings sheet before we leave and a fixed-scope quote within two business days. No charge and no obligation. Outside Central Texas, we do it by video call.

We are starting a business. Where do we begin with the technology?
Call us or send a message. We talk through what you are setting up and give you a short plan: what you need now, what can wait and what it should cost, so you can decide what to do yourself and what to hand to us. If you already have an address, order the internet first: a new circuit takes from a week to ninety days to install, whoever orders it. When you want us to do the work, we can register your domain, set up business email and shared files, build the website, install the office network with a separate guest Wi-Fi, and set up phones and backups. The first conversation is free, with no obligation. Our new business technology checklist walks through the order and the reasons.
How does pricing work?
Every job gets a fixed quote, agreed in writing before work starts, and if something changes we talk about it first, not on the invoice. One-time work such as a website, a network install, a phone setup or an automation is quoted at a fixed price, with equipment itemized at current prices, and anything we keep running for you is a monthly or yearly plan paid by autopay. Consulting is by the hour or on a monthly retainer, and enterprise contracting is corp-to-corp at an agreed rate. Phone service and internet circuits are billed to you by the provider. Microsoft 365 is billed by us at Microsoft's list price, and Google Workspace and Proton bill you on your own card. Domains have a yearly price per extension, shown in your portal before you buy. One-time work can be split into monthly installments by autopay, agreed on your quote. Starting prices for each service are on our pricing page.
What happens after launch, and if something breaks?
After launch you can keep us on a plan or take it from there yourself. Either way, once the work is paid in full, its custom design and your content are yours. A website care plan covers hosting, updates, security patches, backups, monitoring and a set amount of improvement time each month, and network, phone and email clients can have theirs managed the same way. If something stops working, call or email us. On a plan, support is part of the monthly fee. Without one, help is billed by the hour at the consulting rate on our pricing page, and we tell you the estimate before we start. Consulting retainers give your team priority access to a senior advisor each month.
