The digital and business setup around the artist's work.

Start with the artist’s work

Trash Grandma is a tattoo artist’s portfolio and booking website. The artist owns the artwork and creative identity. I built the website and the digital setup around the practice.

More than the website

I handled domain selection and setup, branded email, SEO, commerce and gift cards. My marketing work included email templates, audiences, automation and supporting workflows.

I also provided guidance on accounting workflows and business processes. That was advisory work alongside the website, application and marketing implementation.

An enquiry is not an appointment

I developed the booking-enquiry form so someone can submit a request for the artist to consider. Submitting it does not confirm a tattoo appointment.

The artist handles the discussion and appointment confirmation. The form gives that conversation somewhere to start.
