The Lift

Get found on Google. Then get chosen.

A logo, a five page website, and a Google listing that shows up when someone searches. Custom built for your business, not dropped into a template, created by a husband and wife team in Elgin, serving Columbia, Camden, Lugoff, Blythewood, and the rest of the Midlands.

THE LIFT package
$4,000
LOGO + Website + GOOGLE

One price for the whole foundation. Your domain and any paid plugins or licensed photos are billed to you directly by those providers.

What is included

Three parts. One complete foundation.

Most studios sell these separately and send you three invoices. We build them as one system, because a logo that doesn’t match your website and a website nobody can find isn’t a brand. It’s just three bills.

The whole build takes four to six weeks. You give us one thirty-minute call and quick feedback along the way. We write the pages, build the site, set up your listing, and walk you through all of it at launch.

PART one

Logo

A new mark built from scratch, or a refinement of the one you already have. If people recognize what is on your sign, we keep it and sharpen it. We will tell you honestly which one you need.

PART two

Website

Up to five pages, designed around what you sell and how people actually buy it. Built on WordPress so you are never locked into a platform you cannot leave.

PART three

Google

A new website does not rank on day one. A Google listing can show up much sooner, so we build it as part of the build instead of selling it as an add-on later.

LET’S TALK

Tell us what you do. We'll handle the rest.

Every Lift starts with a thirty-minute call. We learn what you sell, who buys it, and who you’re up against locally, then map out your logo, website, and Google listing from there.

Excellent local business! We have been so impressed with Cate and her work! She is amazing to work with, always professional, creative, and quick to respond.

We especially appreciate working with a local business and having someone who truly cares about bringing our vision to life. Bridlewood Academy highly recommends Cate and her services!

Working with Cate and Hank Goff at Elevator Branding on our pharmacy's 40th Anniversary Campaign was an outstanding experience from start to finish. They took the time to understand our history, our connection to the community, and the importance of celebrating four decades of service. Their creativity, professionalism, and attention to detail helped bring our vision to life in a way that truly reflected who we are as a business and as a family. The marketing materials, branding strategy, and promotional support they provided helped us create excitement around the event and engage our customers in a meaningful way. Cate and Hank were responsive, easy to work with, and consistently delivered high-quality work on schedule. If you're looking for a marketing and branding team that genuinely cares about your business and produces exceptional results, I highly recommend Elevator Branding. We are grateful for their partnership and the role they played in making our 40th Anniversary celebration such a success. — Dustin & Traisha Campfield Elgin Pharmacy

Where people look now

The phone book went away. The searching did not.

For years the Yellow Pages ad was the whole marketing plan, and it earned its keep. It put you in front of every person in the county who needed what you do. Then the book stopped coming, the marketing plan went away, and for many businesses nothing took its place.

Then

An ad in the book

Now

Google Business Profile and a website

Right fit

This is for you if:

NOT THE RIGHT FIT

This is not for you if:

After you launch

The build ends. The upkeep should not.

Website Care & Security is required after launch, and it covers hosting and security to protect the site we built. Listed and Managed are optional plans for businesses that want ongoing help.

Mandatory after build

WebSite Care & Security

$150 / month

Hosting and security only. Your site stays online, backed up, updated, and protected. Starts the month after launch.

Listed

$295 / month

We keep your Google listing accurate and active, with hours, photos, posts, and review responses handled for you. Also includes up to 1 hour of website updates each month.

Managed

$595 / month

Everything in Listed, plus ongoing local search tweaks to help you climb in the map results. Also includes up to 3 hours of website updates each month.

The Lift is a one time build. It’s the foundation, not a subscription. Website Care & Security keeps it running after launch. If you need more than the update hours included in Listed or Managed, a monthly retainer covers bigger website changes, design work, and social media, with a set amount of our time reserved for you each month. If you’d rather call only when something comes up, one off updates are quoted as needed.

Questions

The things everyone asks.

Is $4,000 really the whole price?

Yes, for our work. Your domain name and any paid plugins or licensed photos are paid by you directly to those providers, and we tell you what they cost before you commit to anything. The only other mandatory cost is the Site Care at $150/month to keep your site online and secure.

I already have a logo people know. Do I need a new one?

Probably not. Recognition is worth more than a redesign. We refine what you have so it holds up on a screen as well as it does on a sign, and the price does not change either way.

Can I update the website myself?

Only if you already know WordPress, and most owners do not. Ongoing changes run through a monthly retainer, and one off updates are quoted as needed.

I do not have photos or anything written down.

Most people do not. We write the pages from our conversations with you, and we tell you exactly which photos to get and how to take them. You will not be handed a blank form.

Do I own everything?

Yes. Files, logo, website, and accounts are all yours at final payment. You will pay the monthly Site Care fee, but if you ever decide to transition to another vendor, we will package everything for you and hand over the keys.

THANK YOU

We have received your form submission, and we will be in touch soon.
