Start with the gap.
You don’t need to know the perfect service before you reach out. Tell me what you have, what you’re trying to create, and where things keep getting stuck. From there, we’ll figure out what kind of support actually makes sense.
Founding Client Rate
$20/hour
Crimson Leo is currently building its first group of paid client relationships. During that period, services are offered at a founding-client rate of $20 per hour.
Whenever possible, I build with free or low-cost platforms so your budget goes toward the work itself — not software you never needed in the first place.
Before work begins, we’ll define the scope and I’ll give you an estimated number of hours so you know what you’re walking into.
Ways I Can Help
Message & Copy
You know what you mean. Getting it into words that actually sound like you is the problem.
I can help turn the thing in your head into messaging people can understand without sanding your personality off of it.
Website copy, bios, service descriptions, brand messaging, campaign language, product descriptions, About pages, and other original written content.
Founding Client Rate: $20/hour
Creative Direction
You have ideas, references, colors, moods, and pieces — but they don’t feel like one thing yet.
This is where we figure out what the project should feel like before we start forcing individual design decisions.
Visual direction, mood and tone development, concept development, creative references, experience direction, and bringing scattered ideas into one coherent identity.
Founding Client Rate: $20/hour
Editing & Message Rescue
The words already exist. They’re just not doing what you need them to do.
I’ll help clean up, restructure, tighten, clarify, or rescue existing material while preserving what you were actually trying to say.
Website copy, bios, articles, service descriptions, presentations, long-form content, AI-assisted drafts, and that document you’ve rewritten fourteen times and now hate on principle.
Founding Client Rate: $20/hour
Design & Visual Direction
The message might be right, but the presentation doesn’t match it yet.
I can help develop the visual language that makes everything feel intentional and connected.
Layouts, graphics, visual systems, brand direction, typography, color choices, page concepts, promotional materials, and design cleanup.
Founding Client Rate: $20/hour
Web & Digital Experiences
You need somewhere for everything to actually live.
That could mean one focused page, a straightforward business website, a membership experience, or something far more custom.
Landing pages, business websites, portfolios, interactive experiences, membership areas, booking and payment integrations, content systems, and custom web functionality.
Founding Client Rate: $20/hour
Systems, Automation & Custom Tools
Sometimes the problem isn’t what people see. It’s the twelve things you have to do behind the scenes just to make everything work.
I can help simplify repetitive processes, connect tools, automate workflows, or build something custom when the existing options just don’t fit.
Automations, internal tools, integrations, dashboards, workflow improvements, custom utilities, and more specialized applications.
Founding Client Rate: $20/hour
Build What Fits
You might need Voice + Presence. Or Vibe + Style + Presence. Or maybe your website is fine and what you actually need is Flow.
You don’t pay more because your project refuses to fit neatly into a service menu. We identify the work that actually needs doing, estimate the time, and build the combination that makes sense.
Finding Your Way
Free Bridge Call
You know something needs to change, but you’re not sure what to call the problem yet. We talk. You do not need to arrive with a project specification and seventeen-page requirements document.

We look at what you already have, what you’re trying to create, and what is actually sitting between the two.
Build the Bridge
Once we know the gap, we choose the right combination of services and start building.
Bridge Partner
Ongoing support when you need somebody who already understands the project and can keep moving with it.
Custom Bridge
For the projects where the correct answer is: “Yeah... none of these boxes describe what I’m trying to do.” That’s fine.
Pricing Without the Bullshit
Your money pays for the work.
Not an inflated technology stack.
Not a mandatory pile of subscriptions.
Not features you never asked for.
Whenever practical, I’ll use free or low-cost tools and platforms that are appropriate for the project. If your project requires a paid domain, hosting tier, API, service, or other third-party cost, we’ll identify that before you commit to it.
Before work begins, you’ll receive an estimated scope so you have a realistic idea of the time and cost involved.
Still not sure what you need?
Tell me what you already have, what you’re trying to create, and where things keep getting stuck.
We’ll use your answers to find the gap and identify the combination of services that makes the most sense.
