WANT MORE BUSINESS FROM YOUR WEBSITE?
A website should do more than just sit there. We'll design a free new homepage to show you what your website could be doing differently.

Who you’re hiring
You’re not hiring an agency. You’re hiring two people.
We started Longbow because we kept meeting business owners who had paid an agency thousands and still couldn’t change a phone number on their own website. That’s not a technical problem. It’s a choice agencies make.
So we do the opposite. Harry designs and builds each site himself, a handful at a time. Sacha handles the part most web designers walk away from: where your leads come from and what happens to them once they arrive. When you email, you get one of us. Not a queue.
Harry
Design & build
Scopes the site, designs it and writes the code. One person from the first call to launch, so nothing is lost in a handover.
Sacha
CRM & growth
Business analyst background. Connects the site to how you actually win work: lead capture, CRM, and the numbers behind both.

What clients say
In their words.
Harry did a great job for me. Most of my work has always come by word of mouth, and I didn't have a website, so new customers had nowhere to look me up. Now they can see the bathrooms I've fitted and get in touch easily. When I finish a job, I upload the photos myself, so the site keeps up with my work. Having someone local to deal with made it all very easy. I'd recommend Harry to any business in Andover.

Objections
We already have a website.
We're not here to replace things that are working. If your current website is already generating enquiries and representing your business well, keep it. We’ll only recommend a new website if we genuinely believe there’s an opportunity to improve it.
How do I know this will actually make me more money?
You shouldn’t just take our word for it. We’ll work with you every step of the way, and if we can’t see a realistic path for improvement, we’ll tell you. We don’t want to just provide prettier websites, we want to provide websites that convert and help businesses grow.
I’m worried I’ll pay thousands and get something I don’t like.
We don’t want you approving something you don’t believe in either. We’ll provide a free homepage design so you can see exactly what you, and your customers, would see. You’ll see the direction before we build the whole thing and we'll keep you updated every step of the way, so we’re not disappearing for weeks and presenting you with a finished website you’ve never seen.
Will a new website actually bring me more customers?
We can’t guarantee that a website will magically create customers. What we can do is make sure your website signals exactly what you want to your new customers. That means clear messaging, clear services, clear reasons to choose you, clear calls to action, and a professional first impression.
What if I don’t like the result?
Then we’ll keep working on it. We’re here to build and develop businesses, not create something once and forget about it. We’ll collaborate with you and get your feedback throughout the process to make sure you’re happy with the final result before launching.
Can’t I just get a cheaper website?
Certainly. There are plenty of cheaper alternatives and templates available. If that’s what you need, you probably shouldn’t hire us. We’re not trying to be the cheapest option, we’re trying to be the best option. We aim to build websites that make your business look like the business you’ve always wanted it to. If that’s important to you, then let’s talk!
