See your new website before you decide.
We build a free demo homepage for your business first: real design, your branding, your photos and reviews where they’re public, live at a private link. You judge the work, not a pitch deck. No invoice, no obligation, and if you walk away, nothing is owed.
Orchestrix builds a free demo website before you commit to anything. Tell us your business name and any public presence, and we design a real demo homepage in your branding, using your photos and reviews where they’re public, live at a private link only you see. You try the website before you buy anything. If you like it, the £0 build and £50 a month plan or a custom build takes it live. If you don’t, the demo is switched off and nothing is owed. We’ve built over ninety of these for UK small businesses.
Three steps, one of them yours.
- 01Show us your business
Your business name and anything public: your current site, your Google profile, a Facebook page. Thirty seconds of typing on your end. No call required first, no forms, no discovery meeting.
- 02We build the demo
A real demo homepage in your branding, using your photos and reviews where they're public. Designed from scratch for your business, not a template with your logo dropped in. It goes live at a private link only you get.
- 03You judge it
Look at it on your phone, show it to whoever you'd normally ask. If you like it, the £0 build and £50 a month plan or a custom build takes it live. If you don't, the demo gets switched off and nothing is owed.
Why would anyone build first?
Because it’s our marketing budget. Most agencies spend theirs on ads, awards entries and pitch decks full of other people’s businesses. We’d rather spend ours building yours, so the first thing you see from us is your own business looking the way it could.
It also keeps us honest. A pitch can promise anything; a demo either looks right or it doesn’t. You get to judge the actual work, on your actual business, before a single conversation about money. If the demo isn’t good enough to win you over, we haven’t earned the job, and that’s the right result.
The maths works for us because enough people like what they see. We’ve built over ninety demos so far and several became long-term clients. The rest cost us a few hours each, which is cheaper than most advertising and considerably more useful to the businesses involved.
One thing to be straight about: the demo is a homepage, not the finished website. It shows you the design standard and what your business looks like done properly. The full build (around five pages, your domain in your name, hosting, backups, small edits) happens once you decide to go live.
From demo to live site.
The demo is the front door. If you like what you see, there are two ways to take it live, and we’ll tell you straight which one fits.
Most businesses go with the website plan: £0 up front and £50 a month, which turns the demo into a full custom site of around five pages, with UK hosting, SSL, monthly backups, small edits, and your domain registered in your name from day one. The full detail of how the free build works is on its own page.
If you need more than a website (online bookings, a customer portal, a tool built around how you work), that’s a custom build at a fixed price agreed before we start. Either way, the demo has already shown you the standard, so there’s no leap of faith involved.
And if you’d rather not go ahead at all, that’s fine too. The demo gets switched off, we wish you well, and nobody sends you a bill.
The questions everyone asks.
- What does the demo cost?
- Nothing, genuinely. No invoice, no card details, no deposit, no obligation to reply nicely. We build the demo at our own cost, put it on a private link, and you look at it. If you never want to hear from us again after that, that is the end of it.
- What do you need from us?
- Your business name and any public presence: a current website if you have one, your Google profile, a Facebook page, public reviews. That's it. We work from what the public can already see, so there are no forms to fill, no logins to hand over, and no meetings before you've seen anything.
- How long does it take?
- Days, not weeks. We'll tell you when you ask, and if we're busy we'll say so rather than go quiet. You get one email with a private link when it's ready.
- What happens if we don't like it?
- Tell us, or just don't reply. The demo gets switched off and nothing is owed. There is no awkward follow-up sequence and no invoice hiding behind the goodwill. Plenty of businesses have looked and walked away, and that's a perfectly good outcome for both sides.
- Is the demo the finished website?
- No. It's a real demo homepage: real design, your branding, your photos and reviews where they're public. The finished site is more: around five custom pages, your domain in your name, hosting, backups, and small edits, built through the £0 up front, £50 a month plan, or as a custom build if you need bookings, portals, or tools. The demo shows you the standard before you commit to any of that.
- Why do you do this for free?
- It's our marketing budget. Most agencies spend theirs on ads and pitch decks; we'd rather spend ours building you something you can actually judge. We've built over ninety of these, several turned into long-term clients, and the ones that didn't cost us a few hours of work we're happy to stand behind. Showing beats telling.
Judge the work, not the pitch.
Tell us your business name and anything public, and we’ll build the demo. Costs nothing either way, and we’ll say straight if we don’t think we can do your business justice. Prefer to talk first? Ring us on 07754 218 688 any weekday.
