The version below is the one you are agreeing to. We keep a copy of it, stamped with the
date and time you accepted, so a later edit to these terms cannot change what you agreed to.
Last updated 9 August 2026. These terms cover the free homepage concept offer and any website work that follows from it. Plain English on purpose. If anything here is unclear, ask before you accept.
Who we are
Fox & Brand Marketing Co. is a video, photography and creative studio based in Southern California, working with contractors, builders and service businesses.
The free concept
When you request a free homepage concept, we build a single custom homepage for your business and send you a private link to it. There is no charge, no card required, and no obligation to buy anything. We host that link and keep it live for at least 7 days from the day we send it. We may keep it up for longer, and often will, but after 7 days we are free to take it down without notice.
- We aim to deliver within 48 hours of your request. That is a target, not a guarantee. Volume, holidays, and how much material we can find about your business all affect it.
- The concept is one real, working web page. It is designed for mobile first, because that is where most people will find you. Desktop is tuned on the paid build as part of the quality assurance pass before launch.
- It is not a finished website: it has not been through the paid-build quality assurance pass, and it is not hosted on your domain.
- If you choose a paid build, it includes the package you select. Any additional functionality or services are agreed and quoted separately before work begins.
- We build it from material that is already public: your website, your Google listing, your social profiles. We never ask for passwords or logins, and you do not need to give us any.
- We may decline any request, for any reason, without explaining why. If there is not enough real material to build something honest from, we will tell you rather than send you something generic.
- If you do not want the concept, you owe nothing. The private preview remains available while its link is active, but the preview does not transfer ownership of the design, code, content or files.
Photography and other people’s work
We build concepts using your own project photos. We do not present photographs of work your business did not do as though it were yours. Where a page needs a neutral texture or background we may use one, and we will tell you which images are placeholders.
You are responsible for having the right to use any images, logos, text or other material you give us, or that you publish publicly and we therefore use. If you send us something you do not own, we are not liable for that.
If you want it built
Current pricing, quoted before any work begins and confirmed in writing:
- $1,500, once, for the homepage, fully built. Includes one round of client revisions.
- $2,500, once, for a five page website. Includes two rounds of client revisions.
- $250 per additional page, on top of either package.
- $99 per month, optional, for hosting, security, backups and small edits. Month to month. Cancel any time.
Prices are in US dollars and exclude any third party costs such as your domain registration, stock licenses or paid software, which we will identify before you commit. We may change published prices at any time, but never on work already quoted or in progress.
Hosting and going live
The build price covers designing and building the site. Taking it live on your domain is part of the care plan, because that is what pays for the hosting and the ongoing looking after. With the care plan we host it, point your domain at it, authenticate the email your forms send so inquiries reach your inbox rather than a spam folder, and launch it. Without the care plan you get the finished files and host them wherever you like, and we do not need any access to your domain at all.
What “without the care plan” means in practice. We deliver a WordPress package: the theme, the content and everything needed to run the site, ready to install on hosting you arrange. We do not put it live for you. From that point you, or whoever you use, are responsible for hosting it and installing it, pointing the domain and setting up the SSL certificate, making the contact form actually deliver mail and testing that it does, and keeping WordPress, the plugins, the backups and the security current afterwards.
That form line matters more than it sounds. A contact form that looks fine and quietly sends nothing is the most common way a new website loses work, and on hosting we do not control we have no way to see it happening. Our quality assurance pass is run on our own servers, so once the files are installed elsewhere we cannot warrant that the site behaves identically, and we are not responsible for problems introduced by the hosting, the installation or later changes made by anyone other than us. Support after handover is not included, though we are happy to quote for it.
Ownership
Once you have paid in full, you own the design, the code, the written content and the domain for the site we built you. If you take the care plan and later cancel it, the site is still yours: we hand over the files and you can host it anywhere you like. We do not hold a website hostage to a subscription.
We keep the right to show the work we produced in our own portfolio and marketing. That includes before and after comparisons: your old website or your existing online presence alongside what we built. Showing the difference is the whole argument for what we do, so it appears on our site, in our advertising, in social posts and in what we send to other businesses. We will use your business name and logo to identify the work, since a before and after of an anonymous company proves nothing.
Two things we will not do: we will not show a “before” that misrepresents you, such as a page that was already mid-rebuild when we found it, and we will not publish anything you told us in confidence. If you would rather we did not use your project at all, or not the before, tell us and we will respect that. Ask before launch if you can, because a comparison is hard to un-publish once it is out.
How long a paid build takes
Builds take 3 to 5 business days from payment for the homepage, and 5 to 7 business days for the five page site, assuming we have what we need from you. Every two additional pages beyond the five adds a day to both ends of that window, and the window that applies to you is shown at checkout before you pay. That time is for the paid-build quality assurance pass, desktop tuning and checks on real devices for the package you select. Any work outside that scope is quoted and scheduled separately. If anything will push it past that, we tell you rather than going quiet.
Revisions
The homepage at $1,500 includes one round of client revisions. The five page site at $2,500 includes two rounds. A round means you send your notes together and we work through them. Further rounds, or changes to the agreed scope once those are used, are quoted before we start them.
What we need from you
Timelines assume you reply. If we are waiting on your photos, your copy approval or your domain access, the schedule moves. We will say so rather than quietly missing a date.
Text messages
We only text you if you ticked the box asking us to. It is separate from submitting the form, it is never ticked for you, and you can submit the form without it.
Before you buy, we use it for two things only: sending you the preview link, and asking a question if we need something to build your concept, such as a website we could not find or photos of your work.
Once you have paid for a build, we will also text you about that build. Questions we need answered to finish it, photos or content we are waiting on, a link when something is ready for you to look at, and anything that would otherwise hold the work up. It is the fastest way to reach a person who is on a job site rather than at a desk, which is why we use it. It is still not marketing, and STOP still works, though if you stop texts during a build we will fall back to email and it will usually take longer.
- Expect roughly two to four messages about your concept, and more during a paid build, depending on how much we need from you.
- Message and data rates may apply, depending on your carrier and plan.
- Reply STOP at any time to stop all messages. Reply HELP for help.
- Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.
- We do not sell or share your phone number, and consent to texts is never a condition of buying anything.
How we handle the rest of your information is covered in our privacy policy.
Email reminders
When we send your finished concept, we may also email a small number of reminders while its private link is active. If you have not opened the concept, we may remind you after one day and five days. After you first open it, we may follow up three days and seven days later if you have not purchased a build. We may send one final reminder at 7 days because the free concept can be removed after that point. Because those follow-ups are timed from when you first open the concept, some may arrive after the 7 day period; we send them only while your concept is still online, and in practice we usually leave concepts up well beyond 7 days.
- Opening the concept stops the unopened-concept reminders.
- Purchasing a build stops all remaining concept reminders.
- The first delivery email and every reminder include a clear unsubscribe link. Confirming it stops all future concept reminder emails immediately.
These reminders are only about the homepage concept you requested and the option to have us build it. We do not add you to a general marketing list.
Accessibility
We build with sensible defaults: semantic markup, readable color contrast, keyboard operable navigation, and alternative text on images where you have given us the information to write it. That is not the same as certifying your site as accessible. We do not carry out an accessibility audit, we do not test with screen readers or other assistive technology, and we do not certify conformance with WCAG at any level, the Americans with Disabilities Act, Section 508, or any state accessibility law. If your business is subject to those requirements, meeting them is your responsibility, and we would encourage you to take proper advice on it.
Accessibility is also not a one time job. It changes every time you add a page, a photo, a video or a PDF, so a site that conformed on launch day may not a month later. If you want an audit and remediation, or ongoing accessibility work, we are glad to quote for it as a separate piece of work. Be wary of anyone selling you an overlay or a widget as a guarantee of compliance, because that is not what those products do.
Cookies, tracking and privacy law
We do not set up cookie consent, and we do not provide a consent management platform. A site we build may set cookies or load third party services, for example analytics, a review widget, a booking system, embedded maps or embedded video. Whether you need a cookie banner, a consent tool, a privacy policy, a “do not sell or share my personal information” link or anything similar depends on your business, where your visitors are and what you have installed, and deciding that is your call, not ours.
You are responsible for your own privacy policy, cookie notice and consent mechanism, and for complying with the laws that apply to your visitors, including the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the CPRA, and the GDPR if you deal with anyone in Europe or the UK. Our privacy policy covers our dealings with you. It does not cover your website or your customers. If you want us to install a consent tool or draft the notices, ask and we will quote for it; we will not add it uninvited, and we do not provide legal advice on any of it.
This is our entry-level website package, designed to stay affordable. It includes only the pages, revisions and hosting option described above. Privacy and cookie compliance work, custom legal notices, advanced consent setup, complex functionality, custom plugins, third-party integrations and development beyond that stated scope are not included. If you need any of those features, a more complex site, or custom plugin or integration development, please contact us directly and we will provide a separate quote before work begins.
Your content, your trade, your local law
You are responsible for the accuracy and legality of what appears on your site. That includes your license numbers and classifications and any advertising rules your trade or state imposes on how they are displayed, which for California contractors means the CSLB’s advertising requirements. It also includes any claims about warranties, guarantees, insurance, certifications, awards, service areas, pricing, and the way you present reviews and testimonials, which the Federal Trade Commission has its own rules about.
We write copy from what you tell us and from what we can verify publicly, and you approve everything before it goes live. Your approval is your confirmation that the content is accurate and lawful for your trade, your state and your city. We do not verify permits, licensing, insurance, bonding, employment status or any other regulated claim on your behalf, and we are not responsible for the consequences of publishing something you approved that turns out to be inaccurate or non compliant. If a form on your site collects information, or you use it to send marketing email or text messages, obtaining and recording the consent the law requires is likewise yours to handle.
None of this section is legal advice, and we are not lawyers. If any of it matters to your business, and for most of these it will, talk to one. You agree to cover us for any claim that arises from content you supplied or approved, or from a failure to meet the responsibilities set out in this section.
What we do not promise
We build websites that are designed to convert, and we are good at it. We cannot promise a specific number of calls, leads, jobs or search rankings, and we do not. Anyone who does is guessing. Nothing on our site or in a concept is a guarantee of a business result.
The concept and any advice around it are provided as is. To the extent the law allows, our total liability for any claim connected to this work is limited to the amount you actually paid us for it. Since the concept is free, that means we are not liable for the free concept beyond providing it in good faith, which we do.
Canceling
You can stop a build before it starts and owe nothing. Once work is underway, you are responsible for the work completed to that point, which we will itemize honestly. Care plans cancel at the end of the billing month, and we do not bill you again after that.
