Building a Website for Pro-Metal Roof Systems After a Bad Website Builder Experience

Carlos runs Pro-Metal Roof Systems. When we first talked, he wasn't looking for a sales pitch. He'd already had a bad experience with a website builder, and he was not eager to go through it again.

That's more common than people think. A lot of business owners have paid for a website once, didn't get what they asked for, and decided websites just aren't worth the trouble. The website wasn't really the problem. The experience was.

Trust came before the website

So the first job wasn't design. It was listening. I wanted to know what went wrong last time, what Carlos actually wanted his site to do, and what he didn't want to deal with again.

A contractor's time is spent on roofs, not on calls with a web designer. The least I could do was make the process simple, keep him in the loop, and do what I said I'd do.

Building what he asked for

From there, the work was straightforward: build Carlos the website he described, and meet every request he made along the way. Not a template with his logo dropped in, and not my idea of what his business should look like. His.

When he asked for a change, it got made. When something wasn't right, it got fixed.

The result

Carlos was satisfied with the finished site. For someone who'd been let down before, that matters more to me than anything else I could say about it.

If you've been burned before

If a website builder or designer has let you down, I get why you'd be cautious. You don't owe anyone another chance. But a bad experience with one person doesn't mean your business can't have a website that works for you.

If you want to talk it through, with no pressure, book a call. Tell me what went wrong last time, and I'll tell you honestly whether I can do better.
