Local Positioning

Built for Albuquerque businesses, not generic template sites

The strongest service pages connect local search behavior, mobile usability, trust signals, clear offers, and fast contact paths. Albuquerque and New Mexico businesses need pages that help nearby customers understand the service quickly and take the next step without friction.

This service is for restaurants, cafes, venues, and food businesses that need direct ordering, events, menus, catering leads, or reservations. The page content, proof, internal links, and calls to action should support that customer instead of reading like a generic national service page.

Restaurant Own-Brand Online Ordering

What was built

Built a branded online ordering system on their own website with Stripe checkout. Menu management they control themselves. Customer email capture with every order. Automated post-order follow-up for repeat business.

Business problem

A popular local restaurant was paying 22-28% commissions to DoorDash and Grubhub on every delivery order. They had no direct customer relationship - the platforms owned all the order data and email addresses.

Outcome

Recovered an estimated $3,200/month in platform commissions within 90 days. Built a first-party customer list of 800+ emails. Direct orders now represent 40% of their total online volume.

Events & TicketingReal Work

Lucid Events Ticketing Platform

What was built

Built a Next.js 16 event platform with Stripe Embedded Checkout, webhook processing, Supabase-backed events and tickets, QR verification, a live door workflow, admin tools, Resend ticket email flows, and Apple Wallet pass generation.

Business problem

Lucid Events needed more than an event landing page. It needed ticket sales, door check-in, admin controls, legal content, analytics, guestlist operations, SMS consent, and investor stats in one event platform.

Outcome

Lucid Events has a full operational event system covering the public ticket funnel, payment processing, attendee management, check-in, and post-purchase ticket access.

Arts & Community PlatformReal Work

Black Cat Cultural Center

What was built

Built a React/Vite site with public pages for events, programs, rentals, education, photography, music production, and support, plus an admin route and a dedicated DJ flow for song search, requests, voting, boosts, and live queue management.

Business problem

Black Cat needed an online home for its Albuquerque arts community: programs, events, rentals, support, contact, admin tools, and a DJ request experience all had to live in one coherent site.

Outcome

Black Cat now has a branded digital platform for community programming and event engagement, with the DJ experience separated cleanly from the main marketing site.

FAQ

Common questions.

Do you integrate with my POS system?

It depends on your POS. I can integrate with Square, Toast, and others that have APIs. In some cases, orders go to a tablet or email for now.

How much does Stripe charge per transaction?

Stripe charges 2.9% + 30 cents per transaction - typically 10-25x less than third-party delivery apps.

Can I update the menu myself?

Yes. I build a simple menu management interface so you can update items, prices, and availability without any coding.
