A handful of questions,
plainly answered.

Most website engagements begin in the mid four figures and scale with scope, content, integrations, and launch support. Strategy-only engagements are tightly scoped and quoted at a fraction of a full website build. A written estimate follows the discovery conversation — there is no commodity price list because no two engagements are the same.

A focused marketing site usually ships in four to eight weeks once content and direction are settled. A larger build with custom integrations or a phased launch plan can run two to four months. The studio takes on a small number of engagements at a time, so timelines are honest rather than aspirational.

Both. Every engagement is designed, written, and developed end-to-end by Renn — that is the whole point of working with the studio. Strategy, information architecture, copy, design, frontend, and the launch are owned in-house, so handoff seams never appear in the finished work.

Yes. The studio is based in Wilmington, NC, but most engagements are remote. The full process — discovery, design reviews, copy, and handoff — runs over written briefs, recorded walkthroughs, and scheduled calls. Local clients often prefer one in-person kickoff; either approach works.

Yes. Sites are built so the parts the business needs to update — copy, images, team members, projects, posts — sit in a structured content layer that a non-technical owner can edit through a clean admin or a simple content file. Changes that touch design or layout typically come back to the studio, by design.

The right tool for the engagement, not a fixed default. Most marketing sites are static-built (Astro, Next, or similar), deployed to a global edge network, with content managed through a headless CMS or structured files. The platform stays out of the marketing surface — the studio builds the site, not a sales pitch for a stack.

Yes — set up cleanly at launch and documented so the business owns its own infrastructure. The studio configures DNS, hosting, analytics, and any required mailbox or transactional email service. Domains and accounts are always registered to the business, not to the studio.
