The work behind getting online
Tell us which customers you want to reach, the services you offer and the areas you cover. We’ll shape your website around that, with a clear scope and costs before we start.
Clear services, real project photos and genuine reviews help customers understand your work before they contact you.
Mobile-friendly pages, click-to-call buttons and a clear enquiry form. Business Ready adds questions about the service, suburb and timing to help you assess a request before arranging a quote.
We organise your agreed setup and explain how to use it. After launch, choose website care or a monthly plan combining the marketing and content support you need.
A little less on your to-do list
Your logo, a few photos and a conversation are a good starting point. We’ll explain what else we need.
Content with a clear purposeExplain what you do, where you work and which requests suit your business.

Digital marketing with Sonimi Studio
A good website is the starting point. The next step depends on your customers, your services and your budget.
We help you choose a focused plan across search, Google Business Profile, advertising and social media. Start with a one-off project or include selected services in an ongoing retainer.
Compare monthly support options ↗Setup assistance and improvements to your services, opening hours, photos and business information on Google Search and Maps. Ongoing profile updates and review support can be included in your monthly plan.
Discuss your Google profile ↗Improve how clearly your website explains your services and locations. We review search foundations, plan relevant page improvements and monitor available search data over time.
Discuss local SEO ↗Campaign setup and ongoing management around the services and areas you want to promote. We agree the budget, landing page and available enquiry tracking, then review performance and enquiry quality.
Discuss Google Ads ↗A realistic content plan for Facebook and Instagram, with agreed graphics, captions, video editing and scheduling. We confirm how many posts, which formats and how approvals will work.
Discuss social media ↗Facebook and Instagram campaign setup, creative preparation, audience selection and ongoing management. We agree campaign goals, budget and reporting before launch.
Discuss Meta Ads ↗Tell us what you want to improve. We’ll propose the work, monthly deliverables and full costs before you commit. You do not need to sign up for every service.
Advertising spend is paid separately from setup and management fees. Google Business Profile itself is free; our fee covers the agreed work. Business Ready includes initial profile setup assistance. Google verification, rankings, leads and revenue are not guaranteed.
No technical homework required
A clear scope, one review link and a little guidance at every step.
Tell us which work you want more of, your service area and how you handle enquiries. We then agree on the package, content and full costs.
Review your website in a private preview. Send your feedback in one batch so we can make the final changes.
You approve the site, we test the contact journey and show you how to use it. At handover, we agree how you’ll respond to enquiries and, if you choose ongoing support, your monthly task list and review schedule.
Meet the person behind the service
Eastside Connect is a service by Sonimi Studio, created for small service businesses who want a clear, manageable way to get online.
You work directly with Sonia, bringing over 20 years of software development experience together with website design and digital marketing. Based around Melbourne’s eastern suburbs, we help trades and other small service businesses build a practical online presence.
Meet Sonimi Studio ↗Free builders can be a good choice if you want to create the website yourself. Our fee covers the agreed work: organising your services and content, making your business look consistent, setting up contact options and testing the customer journey. You have one person to guide the setup and handover, with optional help afterwards. A website alone does not create demand; it gives customers a clear place to check your business and contact you.
One scrolling page with sections for your business introduction, services, service area, photos and contact details. Visitors can jump between sections using the menu. It is a simple option when your business can be explained clearly on one page.
No. We also help cleaners, gardeners, tutors, beauty providers and other small service businesses. We shape the pages and contact options around what you do. A link to an existing booking service is straightforward; new booking systems, online payments, shops and memberships need a separate quote.
For Get Online, you provide your basic text and we tidy it up. Business Ready includes a short interview and help writing the included pages from the business facts you supply.
Self-service photo editing can be quoted as an optional extra. We confirm the platform, demonstrate it and explain its setup and subscription costs first. You can also send us photos to update within your care allowance or as separately quoted work. The photo demo shows the idea; it is not a live client account.
Your domain, hosting, email and any editing platform have their own subscriptions. These will be itemised before you commit and paid directly by you. Our optional care and marketing plans are separate, and any advertising budget is agreed upfront.
You retain your domain and business accounts, and receive the access and handover details. Your agreement will explain website ownership and any platform limits, including what can be transferred if you move providers.
A clear website can help people understand your services, assess your work and contact you. Enquiry numbers also depend on how people find you, local demand, your offer and how you respond. We do not guarantee leads, rankings or revenue. Search, advertising and content support can be scoped separately.
No. Eastside Connect builds your business website and offers optional marketing support through Sonimi Studio. Requests through your website go to your business; we do not resell them to other providers. Your customer may still seek other quotes. You pay the agreed service fees and supplier costs, not a fee per enquiry.
No. Ongoing plans are optional. Website Care can be cancelled before the next billing month; the duration and notice for a marketing plan are agreed in your quote. You can also request a separate quote for occasional changes. Any editing platform you choose may have its own subscription.
Yes. Our Marketing & Support retainer can combine social media, content production, Google Ads, Meta Ads, local SEO and website care. Your quote lists the selected services, post quantities, campaign scope, approval rounds and reporting. The $69 Website Care plan covers website support only. Advertising budgets and paid tools are additional, and we do not guarantee rankings, leads or revenue.
Yes. We first check your website, access and existing setup. We then quote any initial work and an appropriate ongoing plan. A rebuild is only proposed when there is a clear reason for it.
You remain responsible for sales enquiries, bookings and customer replies. Social inbox monitoring and comment moderation are only included if specifically agreed in your plan.
We agree on timing after checking your scope and content. Having your photos, business details and feedback ready helps. Google verification and any account recovery may follow a separate timeline.
