How we work

We’ll ask you to tell us all about your business, your dreams and your plans. Then we’ll probably fall a little bit in love with your brand and wish it was ours.

We’ll plan your digital strategy and website to really target the people you want to reach. And we’ll craft your new website with care and the latest tech to ensure the best possible results.

After launch, we’ll keep your site in tip-top shape, freeing you up to make your magic.

Jan and Brendyn got the job done, on time and under budget. Best of all, our entire Board of Governors loved the look and the feel of the website – it really reflected our culture and the message was very clear. Big thanks to the Team at Avoca – impressive stuff.
