01
Performance Engineering
$2,500–$4,000
Usually 2–4 weeks
For performance constraints affecting conversion, paid acquisition efficiency or storefront reliability.
- Comparable baseline
- Root-cause map
- Staged implementation
- Before-and-after validation
Pricing and engagement models
Start with a defined business constraint—not an open-ended block of hours.
Three fixed-scope entry projects establish a baseline, implement the responsible change and validate the result. Ongoing capacity is recommended only when the work creates a real roadmap.
How pricing works
A fixed price for the approved scope.
The written scope defines deliverables, assumptions, exclusions, timing, acceptance criteria and a fixed project price. New requirements are estimated and approved before implementation.
Retainers reserve senior capacity and an agreed operating cadence. They are continuity models, not anonymous blocks of billable hours.
Step 1 · Start here
Defined entry projects
Diagnose, implement and validate one bounded constraint.
Choose the closest starting point. We correct the route during fit review and issue a written scope with exact boundaries and price.

02
CRO and Technical SEO
$3,000–$5,000
Usually 2–4 weeks
For stores with qualified traffic and measurable conversion or search-system constraints.
- Funnel or search diagnosis
- Prioritized implementation
- Theme-level changes
- Measurement and validation plan
03
Custom Build, Migration or Replatform
From $5,000
Usually 4–24 weeks
For themes, migrations, B2B, applications and integrations requiring architecture and controlled release work.
- Architecture and responsibility
- Written implementation scope
- Staging and QA
- Launch, rollback and documentation
After validation
The project closes cleanly or reveals the next responsible roadmap.
If the constraint is resolved, we document the evidence and stop. If further work is justified, we recommend the smallest ongoing model that fits the dependency and cadence.

Step 2 · Continue only when justified
Ongoing senior capacity
Operate the roadmap revealed by the work.
These are continuity models, not four additional ways to start. Starter cannot be used to purchase a complete fixed-scope project at a lower monthly price.

How buying works
One entry decision. A written scope. A measured path forward.
- 01
Choose the closest situation
Select the entry project that most closely matches the business constraint. We correct the route when needed.
- 02
Bound the work
We request only the evidence and access required to define deliverables, assumptions, exclusions, timing and price.
- 03
Implement and validate
The work moves through staging, QA, controlled release and comparable before-and-after review.
- 04
Close or continue
The engagement ends with documentation or a justified recommendation for the smallest ongoing model.
Start with the constraint, not a long menu of services.
Share what is not working and the decision your team needs to make. We will route it to the responsible entry project and define the scope.
