Expand your offering & improve your bottom line
Tell us what you are working on
Leave your details and we will call you back to discuss your project. We will tell you straight away whether it is something we should take on.
You keep the client: we do the work
Partnering with us adds a technical team to your agency without adding a single salary.
-
Take on the work you have been turning away
Do more projects, offer wider services, no need for new hires, no more recruitment cycles. -
Remain as the only agency in the room
We work behind you, in your name, on your terms. -
Keep full creative and management control
You design it and you own the client relationship. We build exactly what you specified, not our interpretation of it. -
Add a growing recurring revenue line
Hosting, care plans, SEO and other retained services you can resell, that we run and you never think about.
Already have a brief or an RFP? Send it over and you will have a fixed price and a date inside one business day.
No obligation, and we will not contact your client. Ever.
Everything that usually goes wrong, removed
You have been let down by a technical partner before. Most agencies have. Here is what we do about each part of that.
What usually happens
What happens with us
You need to answer your client today
Fixed-price quote inside one business day, written so you can forward it.
The work overruns and eats your margin
We agree the date in writing. Miss it on a build and the build is free.
Your partner goes quiet
A named contact who replies inside one business day, usually within the hour.
Your client finds out you outsourced
Fully white-label. Your branding throughout. We will join client calls as your team if you want us there.
You become the helpdesk after launch
Three months of hosting, updates, backups and security included on every build, then an optional care plan you can resell.
You get locked in
You own the code, the accounts and the data. Full handover on request, no argument, no notice period games.
Onboarding is another project
We do the setup. Shared workspace, process, access, all of it, before the first job starts. Alternatively, we work in your existing project management system.
The date is the date
On builds, we agree a delivery date in writing once the scope is signed off. If we miss it, the build is free.
- The date is set only after we both understand the full scope.
- Any change you or your client asks for resets the date, agreed in writing before we carry on.
- Feedback has a window at each review point. Feedback that comes back late moves the date by the same number of days.
- A handful of things we do not control pause the clock: your client’s content, their sign-off, a payment provider’s approval. We name them in your quote so there are no surprises.
On ongoing work, where there is no single date to miss, the commitment is different: no lock-in contract, cancel on 30 days, and your data and accounts come with you.
Our partners say it best
Why agencies stay with us
Four things agencies tell us they cannot get anywhere else.
We stay
invisible
White-label from the first email to the final handover. We never contact your client, our name goes nowhere near your work, and we will even join a client call as part of your team if it helps.
One price
in one day
A fixed price estimate inside of one business day once we have all the details, whatever your project. No hourly billing, and no unexpected variations in cost for you to explain to your client.
One date
in writing
We agree the delivery date in writing before we start, and we carry the cost of missing it. The date is not a target or an estimate, it is a promise you can put in front of your client with confidence.
More work
no hiring
One project or several at once, it’s the same process and the same contact each time. Your capacity stops being tied to your headcount, and you don’t need to carry the cost between jobs.
Case study
Falconer is a New Zealand property development company.
We built their website in collaboration with Seven, a strategic branding agency.

What you can bring us
Anything technical that sits behind a client relationship you own.
Website builds
Bespoke, built to your design, with no off-the-shelf templates. Responsive, fast, and handed over with full WordPress access for you and your client.
Website audits
An independent read on a site you have inherited, or one you are pitching to fix. Written for you, or white-labelled to hand straight to the client.
Search visibility
Technical SEO and content structure, plus the work of getting a client found and cited by AI assistants, where a growing share of research starts.
Marketing automation
The plumbing behind a campaign. Forms, sequences, triggers and reporting, plus the AI pieces worth doing rather than the ones that are fashionable.
CRM platform
Run on our platform and handed to you as a full account under your branding. We build the machine and wire up the data, you decide what it says.
Online stores
Set up to sell, with payment, shipping and tax all handled properly. Built on WooCommerce, so there is no monthly platform fee eating the margin.
Managed hosting
Powerful, optimised servers that we run and monitor, with updates, backups and security handled. Resell it at your own margin, or leave it out of the deal entirely.
How a project runs
01
You send us
what you have
A fully-formed brief, a scope, or a half-formed idea from a client meeting. If have the info we need to price it, you get a fixed price and a delivery date within one business day. If anything is missing, we tell you what, the same day.
02
We do the work
in your name
A named contact at Heroic, who replies inside one business day, usually much faster. Your branding on every document and every environment, progress you can look at whenever you want, and a client who only sees you.
03
It lands
on the date
For a website, that means live with three months of hosting, updates and security included. Then you choose: resell one of our ongoing care plans at your own margin, or take the files and manage hosting and care elsewhere.
What outsourcing to us actually looks like
Most creative agencies reach the same ceiling.
The design work is strong, the client wants a website or a search strategy or the automation to go with it, and the only options are hiring a specialist you cannot keep busy year-round, briefing a freelancer who may or may not answer next month, or turning the work away.
None of those are good for the business you have built.
We are the fourth option.
Heroic is a technical studio that works behind other agencies. We take your designs and build them properly, run the search and automation work that sits behind them, and handle the hosting, security and maintenance afterwards.
Your client deals with you throughout, sees your name on everything, and never learns ours. You keep the relationship, the margin and the credit.
That works because we are not trying to take over and become your client’s agency.
We build and run systems.
We do not write your campaigns, pitch your clients or sit in the front of the room, and we have no sales team courting the people you introduce us to.
Much of our business depends on agencies coming back with the next project, so the only thing we can afford to be is easy to work with and on time.
Questions agencies ask
Will my client ever know you are involved?
No, unless you tell them. Every document, email and environment carries your branding. We do not contact your client directly, and if you want us on a client call we join as part of your team.
Do you only do websites?
No. Builds are the bulk of it, but agencies bring us audits, search and AI visibility work, ecommerce, CRM setup and marketing automation. If it is technical and it sits behind a client relationship you own, ask us.
You do email and CRM. Are you going to go after my clients?
No, and our business would not survive it. We build and run systems, we do not write campaigns or pitch for accounts. Every project we get comes from an agency who trusted us with the last one.
What happens if a build runs late?
It is free. The date is agreed in writing once the scope is signed off, and the conditions are set out on this page and in your quote.
Who owns everything when it is finished?
You do, and so does your client if that is how you have set it up. Code, hosting, domains, accounts, data. We hand it all over on request without making it difficult.
Do you work with our designs, or do you have your own templates?
Yours. We build what you designed, not our interpretation of it. If you want us to design as well we can, but most agencies come to us with that part done.
Send us a brief
A website brief, an RFP, a scope you have been handed, or a few lines describing the problem. Attach it, paste a link to it, or just type it below. If we have what we need to price it, you will have a fixed price and a delivery date inside one business day.
Tell us what you are working on
A brief, a scope, an audit request, or just a client conversation you are not sure how to answer. Leave your details and we will call you back, or send the brief over and you will have a fixed price and a date inside one business day.
We take on a limited number of new agency partners at a time. That is not a sales tactic, it is the only way we can hold the dates we promise.
