On the record

  • “Black Vertex built a website responsible for tripling our bottom-of-funnel conversions, was extremely considerate during the revisions process, and has a keen eye for brand presence building. Still use them to this day for all branding expansions, website restructures, and plan to use them for as long as my company exists.”

Before the call

Where this fits, and where it doesn't.

Straight answers to the questions that usually decide whether the work makes sense.

Do we need a complete rebrand?

Only if the identity is part of the problem.

If the brand is still doing its job, we can refine and extend it. If it is holding the venture back, the project should address the identity and website together.

Do you help with messaging and copy?

We shape the story the site needs to tell.

We define the message hierarchy, page structure, and page-level copy needed for the agreed website. Broader naming or content programs are scoped separately.

Who will lead the project?

One studio lead stays accountable from scope to launch.

Direction, communication, quality, and project decisions stay with one accountable lead. Specialists join only when the work genuinely requires them.

How is investment determined?

Focused projects begin at $2,500.

Integrated transformations require a larger investment. Every engagement is scoped individually, with the schedule, responsibilities, and fixed investment agreed before work begins.

How long does an engagement take?

Integrated transformations typically take 8 to 12 weeks.

Focused projects may move faster. The exact schedule depends on the depth of strategy, identity, content, and development. We agree on milestones and a launch plan before kickoff.

What do you need from our team?

One decision-maker and real context.

You will not manage the build. You will share the offer, audience, proof, constraints, and the decisions only your team can make.

Can BlackVertex run our marketing after launch?

We build the launch system, not the marketing department.

BlackVertex can create launch assets and support the brand and website. We do not run paid media or become your ongoing content and social team.

What can this work realistically change?

Stronger presentation can improve trust and action.

A clearer position, stronger identity, and better path to action can improve perception and conversion. They cannot create demand or repair an offer the market does not want.

What happens after launch?

You own what ships, with a clear handoff.

At handoff, you receive the agreed files, access, and documentation. Continued support can be scoped when the work benefits from it.
