About Slump / Independent by design
Small studio.Big ideas.
An independent web studio in Perth. We help small and medium-sized businesses across Australia turn a good idea into a website worth scrolling.
01 / A different starting point
by choice.
Hi, I’m Xavier.
I started Slump to make getting a good website feel clearer from the beginning. It started with one question.
When it comes to building a website, why is price the last thing you see?
Too often, pricing is hidden behind enquiry forms, and what’s actually included only becomes clear well into the conversation. Slump puts clear packages and upfront pricing at the beginning.
Starting a business already means navigating endless decisions, services and costs. I wanted to make this part easier: agency-level design for small businesses, with clear pricing from day one.
02 / Working with Slump
Here’s the deal.
Copy, feedback, ownership and ongoing costs. The details of working with Slump, before you enquire.
-
The words
We write the copy.
Website copy is included in the project. We’ll write it, and you can review and change it during the feedback stages. Prefer to supply your own? That works too.
-
The back-and-forth
We make room for revisions.
Feedback and refinement are built into the process. We don’t put an arbitrary cap on revision rounds. Changes need to stay within the agreed project scope.
-
The handover
You own the finished site.
Once the project is complete and paid in full, we transfer ownership to you. You can manage the site yourself, or keep us connected for help with future changes.
-
The ongoing costs
One project fee.
There are no ongoing Slump fees by default. Hosting, your domain and email are paid separately to their providers. Any extra support from us is optional.
03 / Client words
From the otherside of the screen.
The experience matters as much as the finished website. Here’s how it felt for the people we’ve built with.
& development
We honestly couldn’t recommend Xavier highly enough! We’ve now used him to design and build websites for three different companies, and we genuinely wouldn’t go anywhere else.
He is absolutely brilliant at what he does. He takes the time to understand exactly what we’re looking for, has great ideas, is incredibly patient with all of our changes and questions, and always manages to turn what’s in our heads into something even better than we imagined!
The websites he’s created for us look fantastic, work brilliantly and we’re always so happy with the end result.
More than anything, Xavier is just an absolute pleasure to work with, reliable, responsive and nothing ever feels like too much trouble.
Five stars really aren’t enough. We wouldn’t trust anyone else with our websites! Thank you Xavier
Thanks to Slump we were able to launch our website the same month we first contacted them! We are thrilled with our custom website, they really smashed the brief and were a pleasure to work with.
Neither myself or my business partner are tech geniuses, which put us in a predicament. We didn't want to reduce our brand to a stock template, but we thought we didn't have the budget for a full custom site. This is until we discovered Slump!
