How Ratiom Works
Ratiom Agency follows a clear, structured process for every website design and digital marketing project. All work is handled directly by Gary O'Toole — no handoffs, no account managers. The steps below explain how a typical project runs from the initial conversation to launch and beyond.
Understand The Business
Before any work starts, the goal is to understand what the business does, who it serves, what makes it different, and what a successful outcome looks like. This happens in a free 20-minute call with no obligation to proceed.
Review The Existing Online Presence
The current website, Google Business Profile, local search visibility, and competitor landscape are reviewed. This identifies what is working, what is not, and where the gaps are before a plan is made.
Plan The Website Or Marketing Asset
A clear scope of work is produced. This covers the pages to be built, the content approach, the technical setup, and a timeline with agreed milestones. No work starts without a plan both parties have signed off on.
Design And Build
The website or marketing asset is designed and built to the agreed plan. All work is done directly by Gary O'Toole — no handoffs to junior designers, no account manager relaying feedback. What was agreed is what gets built.
Review And Refine
A working version is reviewed together. Feedback is addressed directly. Revisions are part of the process, not a separate billing conversation. The goal is a result the client is genuinely satisfied with.
Launch
The finished site or asset goes live once both parties are satisfied. Domain connection, hosting setup, and go-live checks are handled or guided as part of the handover. The client owns everything — code, domain, and design files.
Ongoing Support
After launch, optional ongoing support is available for updates, content additions, Google Business Profile management, and digital marketing. There are no long-term contracts. Support continues for as long as it is useful.
Questions About The Ratiom Agency Process
How long does a Ratiom Agency project take?
Most website projects are complete within 30 days of work starting. Timelines depend on scope and how quickly content and feedback are provided. A clear timeline is agreed before any work begins.
What does the Ratiom Agency process look like from start to finish?
The process starts with a free 20-minute call to understand the business. This is followed by a review of the existing online presence, a scoped plan, design and build, review and refinement, launch, and optional ongoing support. Every step involves direct communication with Gary O'Toole.
Do I need to have all my content ready before starting?
No. Most clients start without polished copy. Ratiom Agency works with what you have and writes what is missing.
How does Ratiom Agency handle revisions?
Revisions are part of the process, not an extras conversation. The goal is a result the client is satisfied with — adjustments are made until that is achieved.
What happens after the website launches?
Optional ongoing support is available after launch. This covers updates, content additions, Google Business Profile management, and digital marketing. There are no long-term contracts required.
Is there a free consultation before starting a project?
