Benedict - Johns Creek, GA

Website Proposal

Good morning Mary Beth,

Thank you for taking the time to speak with us yesterday.  I have the proposal finalized and attached for you to review.

During the Deep Dive conversation, it was determined the Alphonsus Hybrid Site will be the foundation for your new website.  After we apply your branding, fonts & colors, and content you will have a unique website that showcases St Benedict.

The attached proposal walks you through each phase of the project.  We have included the amount of time each phase would take to complete and that is how we arrive at our final cost.  After speaking with my sales team, they informed me there was a website credit that will cover this new project.  I have added this to the proposal as well.

If you have any questions, or if there are any details you wish to discuss, let me know.

Thank you!

Thank you Alan! I have forwarded this to our Business Office for review. They’ve asked that I not sign anything until they review all our agreements fully. It may be a week or two before they are ready.
Zina expressed concern about when we would expect to cut over to this new website. Our preference would be to work towards a end of June date so we could dedicate some time after our faith formation “school year” and registrations wind down a bit.
Thank you! Mary Beth
TO THE CLIENT Alan Snodgrass, Diocesan
Hi Mary Beth,

Thank you very much for the update.  

If we do get the signed proposal back within that 1-2 week window, an end-of-June website launch could be feasible.  Once we get past the 1-2 weeks, it might be a little less likely.

If you or the business office have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out to me.

Thank you!

Good morning Mary Beth,

I hope everything is going well.

The last time we communicated, you mentioned your business office was going to be reviewing all of your agreements before you could start the website project.  How have those discussions been going?  Are you needing any additional information from me to help those conversations?

Additionally, if you need any more information related to the website proposal, let me know what I can do to help.

Thank you!

Thank you for checking in with me! I had let this slip as I got busy with our budget, etc! I will check in with business office to see if we are ready to proceed!

Good morning Mary Beth,

I hope everything has been going well this summer.

I know back in June you mentioned things were getting busy regarding the budget and then we were approaching the 4th of July holiday.

Have there been any discussions related to the proposal?  Let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you!

Hi Alan! I haven’t forgotten you or this project! We are hopefully hiring a communications coordinator this week. We have been looking for someone to take this role for month but pray we are in the homestretch. I will let you know or you are welcome to get back to me in a month or so when we have a person to help transition this process.
Thank you, Mary Beth

Good morning Mary Beth,

I hope everything has been going well.

The last time we spoke, you were hoping that a Communications Coordinator was going to be hired.  I hope you were able to find the right person.

I also wanted to circle back regarding the website proposal.  This might also be tied to the Communications Coordinator getting up to full speed as well.  Have there been any further discussions regarding the website project and the proposal?

Let me know if there are any additional details I can provide.

Thank you!

Hi Alan, Thank you for getting back in touch with me. We have hired a Communications Coordinator! Dawn Leach is new in her role with us. It may take a little time for her to get a handle on other aspects of communications before we are ready for her to tackle the website. I have copied her here and our business manager, Kit Mastrangelo, on this so we can stay in communication about this.
Thank you, Mary Beth
TO THE CLIENT Alan Snodgrass, Diocesan
Good afternoon Dawn,

Thank you for your patience as we discussed your questions regarding Calendar Wiz on our St Alphonsus Hybrid.  I now have everything all finalized for the new proposal.

As we had discussed, the new design will be using the St Alphonsus Hybrid.  You are able to add your Calendar Wiz yourself through content.  Under the main heading area (hero section) there are 4 buttons.  One of these could be for the calendar, and you would insert the calendar link for navigation.  By doing this via content, there would not be any need for additional development.

We will also work with you to migrate your content into the new website.  Once your content, branding, colors, and fonts are all in place, you will have a new unique website that showcases St Benedict.

The last portion of the estimate includes a note from my sales team.  There was a $2380 website credit remaining on the bulletin agreement.  Based on our history and our great relationship, my sales team will also cover the remaining $620.  I included this detail in the proposal for you.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out to me.

Thank you!

Alan,
Thanks for answering our questions about the new quote! You had mentioned on the phone this morning that the St. Alphonsus site had gotten additional features added to it in the fall (after Mary Beth’s selection of the site). Could you tell me what features exactly were added or updated? We are just trying to get a better feel for the price change. I’ve copied our business manager so she can have the information as well. Thanks, Alan!

TO THE CLIENT Alan Snodgrass, Diocesan
Good afternoon Dawn,

Since the original price quote was sent back in April 2021, there have been updates to our hybrid websites, process, and pricing structure.

In the year since the original proposal was sent out we enhanced the mobile responsiveness, performed bug fixes, and did a good amount of work in the development of the code.  All of these updates helped strengthen our hybrid websites.  And we also had a price increase for the first time in quite some time.  

While going through this updated process and working on a new proposal, I was also working with my sales regarding the website credit.

Thank you!

Thanks, Alan! I think that is the information Kit was needing!
FROM THE CLIENT Dawn Leach, Benedict - Johns Creek, GA Staff
Alan, at the very top of the homepage on St. Alphonsus there are some links. Is it possible to either add a “menu” link (or use one of those links for this purpose) that shows submenus beneath it? The Cathedral of Christ the King has something like that. It’s a Diocesan site (probably custom though). It’s at cathedralctk.com

Dawn
TO THE CLIENT Alan Snodgrass, Diocesan
Hi Dawn,

Yes, the additional menu option that Christ the King (cathedralctk.org) is using is a custom option.  If that is something you were wanting that menu option for your website, I can find out how much development that would entail.  This would be an additional cost.

Would you like me to find out how much development that would take?

Thank you!

- Alan Snodgrass

FROM THE CLIENT Dawn Leach, Benedict - Johns Creek, GA Staff
Yes, if you could find out, that would be great.
FROM THE CLIENT Dawn Leach, Benedict - Johns Creek, GA Staff
Or is there another way we can incorporate a menu option that is already included in the scope of the work?
TO THE CLIENT Alan Snodgrass, Diocesan
Good morning Dawn,

I spoke with my team about your question regarding the menu at the top of the homepage.  This led us down another path for Hybrid design.  If we tried to incorporate the additional menu option, this would be significant development time.

Our St Francis Hybrid has both a calendar section and this additional menu option.  The calendar being shown is a Google calendar, but it could also work with your Calendar Wiz.

Let me know what you think.

Thank you!

Good morning Dawn,

Thank you so much for returning the signed proposal.  We are very excited to work with you in bringing a new website to St Benedict.

I know we had a few conversations, but I want to confirm:
  • St Alphonsus is the Hybrid you decided on
  • Calendar Wiz will utilize one of the jump-off boxes and/or a menu option
  • No need for the hamburger style menu 
Once I get your confirmation on those points, I will begin putting your website project into our queue.

Thank you!
