Glenmont Consulting
SERVICE FILE 03 — CUSTOM_BUILDS

Built in days. Maintained for a flat fee.

Agencies quote five figures and months for a website. Glenmont ships brand-quality sites and conversion tools in days to a few weeks, depending on scope — sites that load instantly, cost almost nothing to run, and don't need babysitting.

WHAT GETS BUILT

Marketing websites — designed, written, and live in days to weeks, not months

Conversion tools: calculators, quizzes, checkers, interactive assessments

Dashboards and internal tools your team actually opens

Industry directories and data assets that earn links and leads

Landing pages for campaigns — shipped while the ad budget is still fresh

Care plans: hosting, updates, and small changes for a flat monthly fee

A FIT WHEN
  • Your website is a brochure and the campaign needed a conversion asset last week
  • You’re paying WordPress-era maintenance bills for WordPress-era speed
  • A tool or calculator would qualify leads better than another form
  • You want the site handled — built, hosted, maintained — without a project epic
NOT A FIT WHEN
  • You need a 200-page enterprise CMS with a procurement committee
  • The site is fine and the problem is traffic or positioning — different file
PICK YOUR ROUTE MOST PROJECTS FIT ONE
ROUTE_01 New build

“We need a site that doesn’t exist yet.”

Marketing site designed, written, and built from zero — positioning baked into the copy, conversion baked into the structure. You review twice; it ships.

TIMELINE: DAYS–2 WEEKS

AFTER: CARE PLAN — HOSTED, MAINTAINED, IMPROVED

ROUTE_02 Replatform

“The site exists. The engine is the problem.”

Keep the brand and content that work, rebuild on the modern stack — every URL preserved, redirects handled, SEO equity protected. Bills shrink; speed jumps.

TIMELINE: 1–3 WEEKS

AFTER: CARE PLAN + THE OLD HOSTING BILL DISAPPEARS

ROUTE_03 Conversion sprint

“The site’s fine. The campaign needs assets.”

Landing pages, calculators, quizzes, checkers — purpose-built tools that qualify leads instead of collecting emails. Shipped while the ad budget is still fresh.

TIMELINE: DAYS

AFTER: PER-PROJECT, OR FOLD INTO A RETAINER

ROUTE_04 Keep WordPress + care

“Not ready to move. Keep it healthy.”

We maintain and improve what you have — speed, security, content updates, small builds. When the math finally favors a replatform, you’ll hear it from us first.

TIMELINE: ONGOING

AFTER: ROUTE 02, WHENEVER IT EARNS ITSELF

NOT SURE WHICH? THAT'S LITERALLY WHAT THE FIRST CALL IS FOR.

COMMON QUESTIONS
What makes these sites different from what an agency delivers?

They go live in days, load instantly, and cost almost nothing to run — no plugin stack to patch, no surprise maintenance invoices, no six-month project plan. You get a site that converts and stays out of your way.

How can it be this fast when agencies quote months?

AI-integrated production. The design system, copy, and build move in parallel under one operator instead of passing through a coordinator, a designer, a developer, and a QA queue. Timelines vary with scope and tooling — recent builds shipped in one to three days; larger ones run a few weeks. None of them run a quarter.

What does the care plan cover?

Hosting, monitoring, content updates, and small improvements for a flat monthly fee — no hourly tickets. The site stays fast, current, and yours.

Do you work with our existing WordPress site?

Yes. WordPress stays where it makes sense — we maintain and improve several client WP sites. The modern stack is for when speed, cost, or conversion make the rebuild worth it.

What does a website cost?

A flat project quote after a 30-minute scoping call — no hourly billing, no change-order theater. Because production is AI-integrated, most marketing sites land meaningfully under typical agency quotes, and the care plan covers everything after launch for a flat monthly fee.

Do we own the site?

Completely. The code lives in your accounts, the domain stays yours, and there’s no proprietary platform holding your content hostage. If we part ways, you keep a fast site and everything needed to run it.

What happens to our SEO if we rebuild?

Every URL is preserved or 301-redirected, metadata and schema come across upgraded, and search consoles are resubmitted at cutover. Done properly, a replatform protects rankings and usually improves them — speed and clean structure are ranking inputs.

Who writes the copy?

We do — in your voice, from your positioning, with your review. Design and copy ship together; nothing goes live written by a template or left as lorem ipsum.

Somebody should own growth.
