Web Studio by J.C. Jackson
Storefronts, booking pages, classroom portals, lookbook sites. Hand-built by me, delivered in two to six weeks, owned by you forever.
Why now: Every dollar from these three builds funds Kiera and I on our mission trip to Ghana, plus my restorative trip to Israel. Limited slots. First come, first paid.
What every build includes
No templates. Your colors, your voice, your photos. Built page by page so it feels like your business, not a kit.
Every page tested at 375px before it ships. Most of your customers find you on a phone. We build for that first.
Full source files, hosting transferred to your account, login credentials handed off. No monthly lock-in, no rented domains.
Payment links, product pages, booking forms wired to your existing Square account so you skip Eventbrite and platform fees.
Business and Custom tier builds ship with an admin panel so you can update prices, photos, and class dates without calling me back.
Two weeks of revisions after launch are included. We fix typos, swap photos, and tune copy until you're proud to share the link. Rest days are scheduled on my calendar and do not move · the polish window pauses on those days and picks right back up.
Recent client work

From my own desk
Same hands, different brands. Every link below is something I designed, coded, and ship as part of my own ecosystem.
Kids comic book + herbal tea adventure
Editorial kids brand launching August 2026 at LBJ Market. Four heroes, four blends, one quiz-driven discovery flow.

School of plant medicine · L1 · L2 · L3
Multi-cohort school site with enrollment, materia medica, student portal, and a verify page for graduate certificates.
View live site →Why this is the Custom example
MCC isn't a brochure site. Students log in through a portal I built, not a third-party tool. The admin has five sections · Students Manager organized by cohort, Login History so I see who logged in and when, Content Manager for gated curriculum, Scopes of Practice per level, and Assessments. Cohorts, levels, certificates, and gated materials all live inside the site. That's the line between Business and Custom · the moment a site needs real logins, gated content, and per-student tracking, it's Custom.

Day-retreat series for community rest · ticketed gatherings
Restorative day retreats with herb check-in, ticketing, journal, and playlist. Built to feel like an invitation, not a landing page.

Three ways to work together
Starter
$2,500
Get online, look serious, stop apologizing for your link.
Business · Most picked
$4,500
A working site you can actually run · update prices, photos, and offerings yourself.
Custom
$7,500+
For brands that need something more · multilingual, multi-vendor, or member portals.
Every tier starts with a $500 non-refundable deposit that holds your slot and counts toward the total. Final balance due at launch.
How it goes
15 minutes, free, Zoom only. You tell me what your business does, who you serve, and what's broken about your current site or lack of one.
$500 non-refundable deposit locks your slot in the schedule. It counts toward your tier total · you don't pay it twice.
You send me your photos, your words, your Square account details. I send back a one-page direction so we agree before I build.
I build the site page by page on a private preview link. You review at midpoint and again at handoff.
Final balance, domain transfer, full handoff. Two weeks of fixes and small swaps included while you settle in.
3 slots open · through July 15
A $500 non-refundable deposit holds your slot in the studio queue and counts toward your tier total. After three deposits are in, the window closes.
or, if you want to talk first ·
No Outlook, no phone calls. Once your inquiry is in, you'll get a Zoom link by email if we're a fit.
About the studio
I'm J.C. Jackson. By day I'm a district instructional technology specialist. As an entrepreneur I run Elijah Broke The Gate LLC and Jesse's House Holistic Assisted Living LLC. Medicine Crafts Collective is the herbal school division of EBTG. I build curriculum through Kuumba Architects with Christina Richardson, and code small business websites in the gaps. Every site you see here was built by me, not a team and not a template.
I take three private clients per cycle so the work stays careful. When the three slots are full, the window closes until the next cycle opens.
Honest answers
No. The deposit holds your slot, blocks other clients, and pays for the discovery and direction work. It counts toward your tier total at launch.
Then wait. The studio isn't for businesses still deciding what they sell. Come back when you have a product or service and a name you're committed to.
Yes. Migrations are part of the Business and Custom tiers. We move your content, your products, and your existing domain.
No, but it's what I integrate fastest. If you use another processor, mention it on the discovery call.
You own the site. I include two weeks of polish at no extra cost. After that, I offer optional retainer hours if you want me to keep updating it.
Because I build by hand and I have a day job, a curriculum business, and a family. Three is the number I can deliver without cutting corners.
No. Business and Custom tiers ship with editable admin panels. Starter is designed to look great and convert visitors · if you want to edit content yourself, that's Business or Custom.
Business is "I want to run my site myself." 8 pages, single-editor admin panel, Square storefront or booking, 3 to 5 weeks build, 2 weeks polish. Examples on this page: The Care Cottage, Caryn B. Malone, Kemajo Ka Foro.
Custom is "I need student or member logins, gated materials, or per-user tracking." Unlimited pages, multi-section admin, member portal with login history, multilingual or per-cohort content, custom integrations, analytics, 4 to 6 weeks build, 4 weeks polish. Example: Medicine Crafts Collective. The line is the login · the moment your site needs real student or member accounts and gated content, it's Custom.
No. Rest days are on my calendar and they do not move for any project. If a deadline crosses a rest day, the timeline picks up the next working day. I tell you my schedule on the discovery call so there are no surprises.
