Dean Vinyard. Web design, systems and SEO. Ipswich, Suffolk

Being online is not the same as being found.

I build websites for small businesses in Ipswich, Suffolk and across the UK, structured so search engines and AI assistants can actually read them, then wire up the CRM and automation that handles every enquiry that comes in.

Recent builds: a chimney sweep in Suffolk, a pub garden in Surrey, a photo booth in Cornwall. All built by one person, all live within a month.

One all-in price

Quoted up front. No hidden costs and no surprise invoices.

You deal with me

Not an account manager, not a ticket queue.

Everything stays yours

Your domain, your accounts, your contacts. No minimum term, 30 days’ notice.

Most builds live within three weeks

Bigger builds take longer. I’ll tell you which yours is on the call, before you commit.

Systems, apps and automation

Websites are the easy part.

Most web designers stop at the site. I build the thing behind it: the CRM, the booking system, the automation, the database. Custom software and business systems for small businesses, and every example here is live.

Live bookings dashboard

Every table booking from the website on one iPad screen behind the bar.

  • Staff block out a period for an event and it vanishes from the website instantly
  • Inside and garden calendars kept in sync with no double bookings

Case management CRM

A CRM built from scratch for how they actually work, not a template bent to fit.

  • Cases, contacts and documents on one Postgres database
  • Reporting and bulk actions added as they grew into it

Print job automation

Incoming print jobs routed, tracked and chased without anyone touching a spreadsheet.

  • Each job moves itself through the stages as work is done
  • Customers hear from the shop before they need to ask

Workshop pipeline

Every rug tracked from collection to paid, across twelve stages and three people.

  • The right person gets the job the moment it reaches their stage
  • The customer gets a message at each step without anyone remembering to send it

Booking-to-CRM bridge

Reads the club's booking emails and keeps the parents' CRM up to date on its own.

  • Parents and booking history synced automatically
  • Children's medical and emergency details deliberately never touch the CRM

Journal with a private writing app

A blog on its own database, with a simple app where the owner writes and publishes.

  • Posts render natively on the main site, no third party blog bolted on
  • The owner publishes from her laptop with no training beyond one session

SEO, AI search and Google Business Profile

A site nobody finds is a brochure in a drawer.

Three places a customer looks before they ring anyone. Local SEO, AI search visibility and Google Business Profile management, set up as part of every build and looked after month to month if you want me to.

01

Search

Structured so search engines can read every page, with the right words on the right pages for the areas you cover.

Sitemaps, page titles, local landing pages, speed, the technical bits nobody sees.

02

AI answers

People now ask ChatGPT and Google's AI who to call. Sites built the right way get cited. Most don't.

Clear structure, plain answers on the page, schema markup that tells AI what you are.

03

Google Business Profile

The map listing is the first thing most local customers see, and most businesses never touch it after setup.

Kept current, reviews requested and answered, posts, photos, the categories that actually match.

How a build works

Three weeks, one price, and you see it as it happens.

  1. 1
    Day 1

    Message me

    Tell me what the business does and what you want the site to do. You'll have a fixed price back within a day, usually the same one.

  2. 2
    Week 1

    Half up front, and we start

    Deposit paid, build starts. If there's no logo yet, that's the first thing you get. Then the domain, the email, the CRM behind the scenes.

  3. 3
    Weeks 1 to 3

    You watch it come together

    A preview link from early on, not a big reveal at the end. Change your mind about anything while it's still cheap to change.

  4. 4
    Week 3

    Live, then found

    Balance paid, site goes live. Then search setup: business profile, sitemap, the local pages. Then a handover where everything is put in your name.

Everything stays yours

Most people who come to me have been held hostage by someone who owned their domain or their listing. So this is written down, not implied.

  • Your domain is registered to you, not to me
  • Your Google Business Profile is yours, I'm just a manager on it
  • Your contacts export any time, no asking
  • No minimum term. Thirty days' notice ends any monthly plan

About Dean

One person. That’s the point.

I’m Dean Vinyard. I run GrowthMatix from Ipswich, and I build websites, CRM systems and automation for small businesses that want the enquiries handled, not just a site that looks tidy.

No account manager, no ticket queue. The person who quotes the job builds the job, and answers the WhatsApp afterwards. That means I only take on the work I can do properly, and it means you always know who you’re talking to.

When I’m not building, I sing. Soul, mostly, in a band and on my own. It has nothing to do with websites, except that it’s taught me a room can tell in ten seconds whether you mean it.
