iShowroom is a complete website package for a business wishing to outsource the design and MAINTENANCE of their website.
To our knowledge, we are the only organization in Australia offering customized websites and a full update service for a fixed fee.
All our websites are professionally designed from scratch - no templates are used. iShowroom provides up to 10 pages of content and 20 images in the basic package.
Additional pages can be added for $99.00 a page (which includes allowance for 2 photos on the page). More photos can be added, if required, at the cost of $16.50 per photo.
Once the site is live, there is a monthly service fee to cover the ongoing cost of hosting the site and providing our update service. With our package, you can update the content of your site whenever you wish for no extra charge (conditions apply).
In summary, iShowroom provides:
- a custom designed website with up to 10 pages & 20 images
- unlimited “reasonable” updates to the content fo the site
- hosting with 24 hr technical support
- email redirection or separate accounts
... and so provides everything a business needs to outsource a business website.

Website design: $2,475 (up to 10 pages & 20 images)
Monthly fee : $66.55 (incl updates, hosting & email)
(Just a minute! Did you get that!! The monthly fee includes both HOSTING and UPDATES. Do you know of any other package like that?)
There is a once-off server set-up fee of $88 (includes email set-up).
Additional Pages, Images & Flash Animation
The iShowroom package is very flexible. Additional pages and images can be added as required.
If more than 10 pages & 20 images are required in the initial design, each additional page is $99.00 (once-off) and each additional image is $16.50 (once-off).
An animated panel (eg. Flash or jQuery) to highlight some major selling points, can be added to the home page for a once-off fee of $330 incl GST.
If an unusually large change (or update) is required to a website - and it would need to be quite time consuming to us to charge - we would quote the work on $99 per hour.
Payment Structure
Initial deposit: $973.50 - a "look and feel" is then designed to your satisfaction or your money back. A breakdown of the payment is:
- once-off server setup fee: $88.00
- hosting: 3 months @ $38.50 per month = $115.50
- design payment: $770.00
Progress Payment: $1320.00
Final design payment: $2,475 - $770 - $1320 = $385. Monthly fee now moves from $38.50 during design phase to $66.55, as 'updates' are now included.
If you can provide the content (text and images), that's great.
However, we find many business people are too busy to get involved in the detail of their site and have trouble putting pen to paper.
We're used to that.
If you don't have any content, we can create it from scratch for just $880 incl.GST (for a 10 page site). Additional pages by quotation.
A copywriter (with marketing qualifications) will call you to discuss your business and run through a list of questions, take some notes and then write-up the content of the site for you. The content we create will have a 'marketing' perspective and highlight your Unique Selling Proposition. We'll ensure the finished site will serve as an effective marketing tool for your business.
Of course, we'll also use your company logo, if you have one, and any existing catalogues, reports, photos etc.
In regards to photos for the site, we have access to loads of quality stock photography. Selection and use of these images is included in the package (where appropriate). To illustrate 'products', we recommend using legitimate images. These can often be obtained from the manufacturer's website (and used with permission). Alternatively, try using your own digital camera or we can refer you to a professional photographer.
The iShowroom design process has 5 steps:
Sign up
Once you contact us to say you want to proceed with a website, we will email you a copy of our Service Agreement and an invoice for the $973.50 deposit. Once we receive the signed Agreement and your deposit (which we fully refund if you are not happy with the draft design as outlined in Step 3 below), we will contact you by phone to discuss the design of your site.
Phone Interview
A consultant will contact you to discuss your requirements in sufficient detail to begin a draft design concept. We will establish the primary purpose of the site, who your target market is and what materials are available for use on the site e.g. logo, photos, brochures etc.
Creation of Design Concept i.e. a draft design
Once we have received your materials (which a courier will pick up free of charge), we will begin a draft design. Normally this consists of the front page, including logo and appropriate images, and a specimen interior page layout. We then post it to a private address on the web for you to view and await your feedback and alterations. We will work with you until you are happy with the design OR YOUR MONEY BACK!
Progress Payment and Site Content
Once you are happy with the draft design, a progress payment of $1320 is due and we then proceed to complete the content of the site. Again you are invited to make comments, alterations etc. However, we do not allow changes to the design concept at this stage because it has already been given final approval.
Publication to your web address
Your business is now online! Once your site is "live" the final account falls due.
