Put your business in

Free. No payment details, no trial.

A website to send people toFilled in, for the example business: drawn with a number, links and its own hours. The example site you can open has no number or links, and different hours.
A contact card to hand overhelpfol.com/@nailsbyjess
A QR code to showYour phone shows it with no signal.

Not a row in someone else's list. A website with only your business on it.

Your website shows one business: yours. Nothing on it scores you, no ads run on it, and nothing on it sends a customer to the shop next door. Once you publish, it also appears in Helpfol's lists by trade and area, next to other businesses, as a link to your site. Nothing there scores you, and no spot is for sale.

You send people to it yourself. Paste the link where "DM for prices" used to be. Send it in a text. Put it under your name in your emails. Hold up the QR code on your phone when someone asks for your number. When someone taps Add to contacts on your card, your number goes into their phone with the address of your card, and your card has a row to your site. Every one of those leads to the same site, and it shows what you last saved.

Five ways in, and one site behind them. The ways in are the ones you use already.

One place for your business. Everything else is drawn from it.

A small business's details end up in five places: a social page, a link tool, a profile on a search engine, a box of cards, a website someone built a while ago. None of them talk to each other, so a price goes up and four of them are still wrong.

Here your name, what you do, your services and prices, your hours and how to reach you are kept in one place. Your website, your card and your QR codes are drawn from it. Put its link in your social bio and on your search profile, and they point at the one place instead of keeping their own copy of your prices.

One place, and what comes out of it. Solid is today and free. Dotted is coming.

What is on it, and what is not.

The questions you answer every week, answered once on your website. Nothing on it is about another business; Helpfol keeps to a slim bar across the top, with its mark.

"How much?"
Services and pricesA fixed price, a from price or on quote, each with its own photo if you want one
"Are you open?"
Opening hoursYour week, and on a phone whether you are open now, once your number is on it
"Where are you?"
Who you are, and whereYour suburb in your own words. A street only if you add one
"How do I reach you?"
Ways to reach youCall while you are open, your message app by its name, and a form you switch on
"Where else are you?"
Your links, in your orderInstagram, a booking link, anything, under Find me
Not on it, on purpose
  • No star rating
  • No reviews, from anyone
  • No 'similar businesses nearby'
  • No ads

The message form is off until you switch it on, and the open-now line on a phone needs your hours and your number on it. A person gets a Call button while you are open. Your street is on it only if you put it there, and nothing goes up until you publish.

Change it from your phone. Your site has it within seconds.

Thursdays run late now. Open your hours, press Edit details, change Thursday, press Save changes. Your site has it within seconds, and so does your card. No second publish, no quote, no email to a designer.

Closed over the school holidays? Add each day as a special day marked closed. On a phone, the bar at the foot of your site says closed on those days when your number is on it, and so does your card. The weekly hours on your site keep showing your usual week.

Nothing to host, renew or update.

  • No hosting to pay for, and no domain to buy and point somewhere.
  • No theme, no plugins, no app to install. You fill it in on a web browser, on your phone or a laptop.
  • It comes designed. With no logo or photo yet, the logo spot shows your first letter and the cover is drawn in colour: Helpfol's blue and green until you pick your own in Brand and Design.
Thursday's closing time changed in the workspace and saved, then the foot of the site on a phone: the open-now line in its bar reads the new time.

Thursday changed to 8:00 PM, then Save changes. The bar at the foot of the site now says until 20:00. Simplified drawings of an example business.

Coming - not priced yet

Your custom website

When you want a custom website: one designed for you from the same details, at your own domain name, with a business email at it. Set up for you. You would not type anything twice.

Not on sale yet, and not priced yet.

Later - no date

Where the same place goes

Later: quotes and invoices, and what is owed. Licences and certificates, checked where they can be checked. Business cards and a counter sign, printed and posted to you. None of that is here today.

Today, next, later. Only the first column is here today.

Put your business in.

It asks for what you already know: your business name, what you do and where you work, then as much as you have of your services, prices and how to reach you. Your hours go in afterwards, in your workspace. Nothing goes public until you publish it. You can change every line afterwards, from your phone.

Free. No payment details, no trial.
