Sound familiar?
Running a business is a full-time job. Your website shouldn't be another one.
Three things almost every Toronto business owner tells us, and how we take them off your plate.
- 01You're too busy to be the website person.
Changes wait for weeks, so hours, prices and photos drift out of date.
Fixed: post it in Wholebase or email us. Most changes are live within a day. - 02Google says one thing, your site says another.
Different hours in two places costs you walk-ins, and trust.
Fixed: we keep your website and Google profile in sync. - 03Happy customers, quiet reviews.
People love you in person, then forget to say so on Google.
Fixed: a review link and a QR card for your counter, so asking takes two seconds.

A Toronto team you can meet.

Questions
Good questions.
Is the design really free?
Yes. Take the quiz and we'll design your homepage within 48 hours, free. If you love it, we build the full site and set up Wholebase, and that's when a one-time setup and your monthly plan start. If you don't, you walk away. No card, no invoice.
What is Wholebase?
It's the app that comes with every plan. Today you can ask for changes and see their status, share photos and files, add your team and follow your website's progress. Review requests, invoices with card payments and missed-call text-back are next, and founding clients get them free.
Do I have to use the app?
No. If you'd rather just email us, that works too. Wholebase keeps track of everything either way, so nothing gets lost.
Do I own my website and domain?
The domain is always registered in your name. The site becomes fully yours after 12 monthly payments, or you can buy it out earlier.
Why not Wix or Shopify?
They're good tools if you have time to run them. With us it's designed, written, set up on Google and looked after, and you can reach a real person who knows your business.
