How it works

We’re Focal. We run the online side of your business, so you can run the business.

Everything your business needs online — your site, your booking, your payments, your search presence — built, connected, and run as one. You focus on helping the people you serve. We’ll handle the rest.

We take you from a template to a launched business in days, not months. Here’s the whole path, start to finish.

  1. 01

    Tell us about your business

    Start from one of five proven starting points — local service, restaurant, professional, shop or portfolio. Preview it with your business name and colors in seconds.

  2. 02

    We build and connect it

    We set up your site, move over up to 20 pages of your content, and wire it all together — your booking, your payments, your search presence — so the online side of your business runs as one. The speed, and the way things keep improving after launch, comes from our AI-powered build and optimization engine.

  3. 03

    The handoff

    When you go live you get your Focal Admin magic link, a clear view of how everything is set up, and your handoff notes. No passwords — if you can send a text, you can update your site.

  4. 04

    You run it — or we do

    Run it yourself after handoff, run it together with us, or hand the whole online side to us. Your choice, and you can change it as your business grows.

The handoff

The moment it’s all yours.

When you go live, everything is in your name — your accounts, your content, your customer list. If you want to run it yourself, you can: update your hours, swap photos, and post announcements right from your phone, no code, no help needed. When you choose to run it, you run it.

Prefer a hand? We can run it together, or run it for you — so you never have to touch a thing unless you want to.

Keeping it running is always covered. Extra work is fairly priced.

Keeping you online, secure, backed up, and up to date is part of every plan — forever. That’s one less thing you have to think about. Bigger changes and new features come from a published rate card, so you always know the cost before we start.
