How much does the Tradie System cost?

Single-page website setup is from $1,140 and multi-page setup is from $2,940 for standard scope. Custom scope is quoted on your discovery call. Both include the first 12 months of hosting and SSL, plus copy, design, launch, image optimisation, Google Business Profile support, and domain/email/phone setup as agreed. If you are not on Tradie CRM, ongoing hosting is $19 per month after that included period. Tradie CRM is optional from $240 per month for either site type (pricing confirmed on your call based on automations and setup), including hosting as part of the platform, CRM, lead capture, missed call text-back, follow-up automation, and pipeline. Three-month minimum when you take CRM, then month-to-month. Typical timelines: about 7 working days for a single-page site once all requested information and assets are provided and approvals are returned on time; about 2–3 weeks for a standard-scope multi-page site. Bright Path Creative is a sole trader not registered for GST; no GST applies to these fees.

How long until my site is live?

For a single-page site, we typically go live in about 7 working days once we have received everything we asked for and approvals are returned within the agreed windows. Multi-page sites usually take about 2–3 weeks for standard scope. Late materials or approvals extend the timeline; we confirm dates at kickoff.

What is included in the monthly fee?

From $240 per month for Tradie CRM (pricing confirmed on your call based on automations and setup). That covers hosting for your live site plus enterprise CRM, lead capture into CRM, contact management and pipeline, missed call text-back, follow-up automation, and calendar/enquiry flow. If you do not take CRM, setup includes the first 12 months of hosting; after that, website-only hosting is $19 per month. 3-month minimum commitment when you take CRM, then month-to-month with 30 days notice. No hidden fees.

20 days to a site worthy of every one of them.

Jamie had spent two decades building some of the finest brickwork in Melbourne's east. His website was three pages on Wix with placeholder copy and no way to capture or follow up leads. We rebuilt the site, set up his CRM with automations, and delivered a full SEO and LLM foundation in under three weeks.

Where things stood

A website that
didn't do him justice.

Jamie is the kind of tradesman who earns referrals by leaving a job site cleaner than he found it and sending clients photos of the finished work before they've even had a chance to ask. His Google reviews say it all.

His website said none of that. Three pages on Wix. A headline that read "JC Brick and Blocklaying." Body copy with a literal placeholder: "over X years of experience." A Wix watermark in the footer. No service pages, no suburb targeting, no reviews, no award mention.

He'd originally spoken to Sara, then decided to try a cheaper option. He saw the result before it went live, and lucky for that! He called back the same week. Once he saw what a proper multi-page build looked like, there was no going back to a single landing page.

The new site

Brand first.
Then every page built to rank and convert.

We started with the brand, logo refinement and a proper style guide, so the website had a foundation to build from. Then the copy, the build, and the search layer: SEO metadata, structured data, and LLM-ready structure. CRM and automations tied it together so enquiries do not sit unanswered. Every decision made with one goal: a system that performs as hard as Jamie does.

Days 17 to 20

Review and launch.

Jamie reviewed the preview site. Final tweaks. Enquiry forms and CRM automations wired. Site went live.

The result

A site that finally looks like the work behind it.

The site went live 20 days after Jamie paid his deposit. Twelve pages, 23 suburb pages, seven dedicated service pages, a full gallery, client-approved copy on every page, a brand identity that finally reflects what JC Brick & Blocklaying actually is, and a CRM with automations so every enquiry lands in one place and gets followed up.

On search: metadata and structured data across every page, suburb pages built to rank locally, and llms.txt so AI assistants can surface the business when homeowners ask who to hire. The suburb pages mean Jamie now has a genuine shot at ranking for "bricklayer Ringwood," "retaining wall Doncaster," and "outdoor fireplace Healesville": searches his competitors aren't even set up to compete for.

It's early days for lead data. The site just launched. A Google review from Jamie is on the way.
