Caola Paisley's wee web design guy

About

Hiya. I'm Gary.

I build wee websites for wee businesses around Paisley — in the evenings and at weekends, from my house, with two Jack Russells supervising.

One dug. Two sisters.

Who's behind it

A Paisley designer who used to work for big companies.

I used to be a graphic designer for one of the UK's big studios, working on brands you would know. Now I do the same job for the businesses near my house — the barber, the cafe, the joiner, the lassie doing nails in her back room.

Why is it this cheap? Because I work from home. There's no office, no sales team and no adverts to pay for. The work is the same work. You're just not paying for the building.

And the name? Caoimhe and Lola — my two wee Jack Russell girls. That's them in the logo: one side of the face is Lola, ear down; the other side is her sister, ear up. They're my life, so they got the sign above the door.

Evenings and weekends

I've a day job. Caola runs after it.

Straight with you: I've a full-time job, so Caola runs on weeknights and weekends. That's when you'll get me, and I'd rather say so than have you ringing on a Tuesday afternoon wondering why there's no answer.

It doesn't slow the work down. Get Found is usually done in a week, Get Online in about two.

Monday to Friday
5pm – 9pm
Saturday and Sunday
10am – 6pm
