Engagement 3

Custom Digital Platform

What affects investment

The range reflects the work, responsibility, and risk involved

These variables are not a list of surprise fees. They help determine how much strategy, design, development, coordination, testing, and long-term stewardship the project requires.

1

Journeys and content

  • Number and complexity of customer journeys
  • Content volume
  • Copywriting needs
  • Custom design needs
2

Functionality and data

  • E-commerce catalog size
  • Integrations
  • Authentication and roles
  • Data migration
  • Reporting
3

Delivery and stewardship

  • Accessibility requirements
  • Stakeholder count
  • Timeline urgency

Payment schedules

Payments follow the size and duration of the engagement

Milestone billing keeps financial expectations connected to project progress. The proposal and agreement confirm the actual schedule for each engagement.

Projects under $10,000

  1. 150% deposit
  2. 250% before launch or final handoff

Projects from $10,000–$25,000

  1. 140% deposit
  2. 230% after strategy or design approval
  3. 330% before launch

Larger or longer projects

  1. 1Paid discovery
  2. 2Milestone billing
  3. 3Monthly implementation invoicing when appropriate

Work begins after a signed agreement and required deposit.

Final launch or handoff follows receipt of required payments.

Actual terms are confirmed in the proposal and agreement.

Third-party costs and ownership

External services stay visible in the project plan

Third-party expenses are paid directly by the client where practical or clearly identified and billed separately. This keeps recurring costs, vendors, and account responsibilities understandable before launch.

Ownership approach

Client account ownership is preferred where practical. Intellectual-property transfer, licenses, reusable tools, and third-party components are governed by the signed agreement.

Costs that may be separate

  • Domains
  • Hosting
  • Premium plugins
  • Platform subscriptions
  • Email services
  • Payment-processing fees
  • Stock media
  • Photography
  • Professional copywriting
  • Specialized integrations

Scope changes and boundaries

Clear boundaries protect the outcome and the working relationship

A defined scope is not meant to make the project inflexible. It gives everyone a shared plan and a calm way to evaluate new information, new requests, and schedule changes.

What the project documents establish

  • Proposals identify deliverables and exclusions.
  • Revision rounds and client responsibilities are defined.
  • New requests may require a written change order or separate estimate.
  • Timelines may change when content, feedback, or approvals are delayed.
  • Paused projects may need to be rescheduled around current commitments.
  • Managed Support does not replace separate scoping for new projects or features.
Investment FAQs

Questions about investment, ownership, and next steps

These answers explain the usual approach without replacing the project-specific terms documented in a proposal and signed agreement.

Start a Project

A professional engagement includes strategy, customer-journey planning, content structure, design, development, testing, launch preparation, and decisions about long-term maintenance. A template can be useful, but the investment increases when the system must solve specific business problems, support real workflows, and remain manageable after launch.

Often, yes. A project can be divided into responsible phases when the first phase still delivers a useful outcome and does not create avoidable technical debt. The proposal will identify what belongs in the initial phase and what can follow later.

Project payments are normally divided into deposits and defined milestones. Projects under $10,000 generally use two payments, projects from $10,000–$25,000 generally use three, and larger or longer engagements may use milestone or monthly implementation billing. Actual terms are confirmed in the proposal and agreement.

The proposal identifies deliverables, exclusions, revision rounds, and client responsibilities. If a new request changes the agreed work, InnoNative will explain the impact and use a written change order, a separate estimate, or a later phase before proceeding.

Hosting configuration may be part of a project, and managed hosting is included in Website Care when that plan is appropriate. Hosting platforms, domains, premium services, and other third-party charges are identified separately so ownership and recurring costs are clear.

Client ownership of platform and service accounts is preferred where practical. Intellectual-property transfer, licenses, reusable tools, and third-party components are governed by the signed agreement, so the exact ownership terms are documented before work begins.

Growth Website engagements typically include messaging guidance, page-purpose planning, and practical refinement of client-provided copy. Full professional copywriting from a blank page is included only when the proposal says so and may be quoted separately or provided with a specialist.

Yes, when the current platform is supportable and can responsibly meet the project goals. InnoNative will evaluate the existing setup, constraints, account access, and maintenance history before recommending improvement, migration, or replacement.

No. Projects can include technical SEO foundations, analytics, clearer customer journeys, and conversion-focused recommendations, but rankings and revenue depend on the market, offer, competition, content, implementation, and ongoing business activity.

The agreed launch process may include training, account handoff, analytics configuration, documentation, and a defined post-launch support period. Managed Support is available for organizations that need ongoing maintenance, scheduled improvements, analytics review, or technical planning.

Paid discovery is usually recommended when requirements are uncertain, several stakeholders are involved, custom software or complex integrations are needed, sensitive data is involved, content migration is significant, or the likely implementation investment exceeds $20,000.

Yes. Responsibilities, decision ownership, handoffs, and technical boundaries are defined during scoping so each partner can contribute effectively without duplicating work or leaving important tasks unassigned.
