Mbombela Made, home

Planned services

Three groups of work, scoped in writing.

These are the services Mbombela Made is preparing to offer towards a January 2027 launch. They are not a rate card. If a project goes ahead, the scope is written first and the price is a fixed quote for that scope.

Brand identity and design

A small, usable identity for a business that needs to be recognised. The work is the files and the rules for using them, not a slogan about the brand.

Includes

  • A conversation about the business, who it is for, and what must be recognised
  • A primary logo and the practical variants needed for screen and print
  • A short guide: colours, type, clear space, and a few things not to do
  • Simple applications, such as a profile image, a document header or a card layout

Does not include

  • A full campaign, packaging system or signage programme, unless the scope says so
  • Naming a business from scratch, unless that is agreed as its own piece of work
  • Printing, sign manufacturing or production management
  • A promise that people will prefer the new identity, or that trade will increase

Websites and online presence

A small-business website, built mobile-first, with a structure a visitor can follow. The first screen can be paced and considered — a clear name, a short line, and enough quiet space to feel deliberate — where that fits the business. It is not a trailer, it does not autoplay, and it is not copied from another studio’s packages or claims.

Includes

  • A modest number of pages, organised so the offer, the place and the enquiry are easy to find
  • Layouts that work on a phone first, then on a larger screen
  • A first screen with room to breathe, when a quieter entrance suits the craft
  • Page titles, descriptions and a share image
  • Handover notes so the owner knows what the site is made of

Does not include

  • A commitment to search rankings or a position on a results page
  • An online shop, a bookings engine or a member area, unless a later scope says so
  • Domain registration, hosting fees or third-party subscriptions — those stay in the owner’s name
  • Unlimited revisions, or changes that were not in the written scope

Content and ongoing support

Help with what a business publishes, and light care of a website after it is live. The amount of work is agreed. It is not an open-ended promise to post every day.

Includes, when agreed

  • A short content pattern: what to say, in which formats, and a rhythm that is realistic
  • A small set of templates — a caption structure, a story frame, a simple graphic layout
  • Limited website care after launch: text changes, image swaps and small fixes inside a written boundary

Does not include

  • Daily posting as an endless retainer
  • Paid advertising management
  • Guaranteed reach, followers, leads or sales
  • Community management across every platform at once

Not offered yet

Some kinds of work are later-stage ideas. They are named here so the boundary is clear. They are not current services, and they cannot be booked from this site.

  • Online shops and other ecommerce builds
  • Ongoing SEO retainers
  • Paid advertising
  • Multi-channel retainers that cover several networks as a standing package

These may be considered after the practice is actually trading. Until then, they stay off the list.

How a quote would work

There is no public price list, and no figure on this page should be read as a Mbombela Made rate. The enquiry process is plain:

  1. You describe the work in ordinary language, on WhatsApp.
  2. I ask what I need to understand, then write a scope: what is included, what is not, and how many rounds of review.
  3. I send a fixed quote for that scope. The quote is for the work described. It is not a standing hourly advertisement, and it is not a promise of rankings, leads or revenue.
  4. Nothing starts until the scope and the quote are accepted in writing.

Mbombela Made is not an open shop yet. The launch being worked towards is January 2027. Start a conversation
