Cardboard Rocket

Work

Cards marked “Example project” are illustrative, not real client work. Cardboard Rocket is new, so rather than pad this page out or pretend otherwise, those cards show the kind of work I take on and how I approach it. Each one gets replaced by a real project as it completes.

  • Example project

    Trades

    Example: a Glasgow roofing firm

    A one-page site that turned a word-of-mouth business into one that gets found on Google.

    The problem
    All work came through referrals. Anyone searching for a roofer in the area found competitors first, and there was nothing to send a prospective customer to.
    What I built
    A single-page site with the service area, real photos of finished jobs, and a phone number visible without scrolling. Set up so it appears for local searches.
    The outcome
    Illustrative example — replace with a measured result such as enquiries per month once real client work is available.

  • Example project

    Services

    Example: a mobile dog groomer

    A booking tool that replaced a paper diary and a stream of missed calls.

    The problem
    Appointments were taken by phone while driving between jobs, written in a diary, and regularly double-booked or forgotten.
    What I built
    A booking system customers use themselves, with automatic reminder texts and a route-friendly day view on a phone.
    The outcome
    Illustrative example — replace with a measured result such as hours saved per week once real client work is available.

    Retail

    Example: a farm shop

    An online store and collection system built for a business that had never sold online.

    The problem
    Strong local trade in person, no way to sell to customers who could not make the drive, and no appetite for a complicated system.
    What I built
    A small store with click-and-collect slots, card payments, and a stock screen simple enough to use behind the counter on a busy Saturday.
    The outcome
    Illustrative example — replace with a measured result such as online orders per week once real client work is available.
    • E-commerce
    • Support & hosting
