JobSheet
Job tracking and cashflow for Australian tradies — quote it, job it, get paid. Replaces the spreadsheets and shoebox of paper invoices that most sole-trader sparkies, plumbers, and chippies juggle.

No. 03 — Three doorsBrisbane / Section 03
Three things, done well.
01
Websites
A proper website — not a template, not a Squarespace lookalike. One that loads quickly, ranks well, and looks like the business behind it actually cares.
- Custom design — yours, not a theme
- SEO and structured data baked in
- Easy to update — I'll show you how
- Hosted on Vercel, fast as anything
Typical timeline
1–3 weeks
02★ Most asked
Apps & MVPs
Your idea, working. Real users, real payments, real data. I build the V1 that proves it has legs — and is solid enough to grow on.
- Auth, payments, dashboards — sorted
- Boring, reliable tech under the hood
- Weekly progress demos, no surprises
- 30 days of free support after launch
Typical timeline
4–8 weeks
03
Mobile apps
iOS and Android from one codebase. I've shipped through the App Store and Play Store dance — I'll handle the submission process for you.
- App Store + Play Store, both
- Push notifications, deep links
- Native bits when you genuinely need them
- You get the keys at the end
Typical timeline
6–12 weeks
Got a great idea but no cash? I sometimes work for equity. If your idea's good and I'm excited about it, we can talk about trading some of my time for a slice. Pitch me →

No. 05 — The workBrisbane / Section 05
Four steps. The first one's a call.
Talk
A 30-minute call — no slide deck, no obligation. You tell me what you're building and why; I tell you straight whether I can help and how.
You'll get
a clear yes or a clear no.
Scope
I write up what we're building, what's out of scope, and target dates. Fixed-price quote — no open-ended hourly billing. You sign off, or we adjust.
You'll get
a written scope and a real number.
Build
I build. Every Friday you get a working demo and a short Loom walking through what changed. You steer, I ship.
You'll get
weekly progress, no surprises.
Hand-off
You own everything — code, accounts, deployments. I include 30 days of free support after launch for bug fixes and small tweaks. After that, an optional support retainer if you want me on call.
You'll get
a working product and the keys to it.

No. 07 — QuestionsBrisbane / Section 07
Things people actually ask.
The questions that come up before someone says yes. If yours isn't here, the contact form is right below.
- It depends on the scope. Websites typically start around AUD $4–8k; MVPs sit in the $10–25k range; mobile apps go up from there. After our first call I send a written scope with a fixed-price quote — never an open-ended hourly arrangement.
- A website is usually 1–3 weeks. An MVP is 4–8 weeks. A mobile app is longer — 6–12 weeks for a focused V1. After the first call I give you real target dates, not a vague "it depends."
- You do. All of it. Source on your GitHub, deployments on your accounts, domains in your name. I hand you the keys, walk you through it, and document anything that isn't obvious.
- Every project includes 30 days of free post-launch support for bug fixes and small tweaks. After that, I offer an optional monthly retainer if you'd like me on call for changes. If you'd rather take it from here, you've got everything you need to do that too.
- Sometimes — for ideas I'm genuinely excited about and founders I'd back. It's not a discount mechanism; it's a partnership. Mention "equity" in the contact form and we can have a real conversation about whether it's a fit.
- Weekly Friday demo (short Loom or live call, your call) plus async updates as needed in Slack, email, or whichever channel you prefer. No daily standups, no surprise scope changes — just visible progress and quick decisions when you need to make them.

Tell me about your idea.
Whether you have a budget to spend or just an idea you can't stop thinking about, I'd like to hear it. Mention "equity" in the budget field if you'd rather discuss a partnership instead of a fee.
