Give your business something to grow on.

We build your website, get you found on Google, and set up the admin that slows you down. Then you run it all from one WhatsApp chat. No portals, no passwords, no new app to learn.

Services

Be found. Stay booked. Get paid. All handled.

Everything a business needs to grow, built around how you already work. Pick one service or all of them. Each one is set up for your business, not copied from a template.

Be found.

Customers look you up before they call. They should find you first, and like what they see.

  • WebsitesBrand-new, fast, mobile-first sites that turn visitors into enquiries.
  • Google Business ProfileSet up and kept current, so you show on Maps and local searches.
  • Local SEORanking work so "near me" searches lead to you, not the business down the road.

Stay booked.

A missed call is usually a lost customer. Every enquiry should get an answer, even when you're busy.

  • Missed-call text backEvery unanswered call gets an instant message, so the customer waits for you.
  • WhatsApp enquiriesLeads from your site and Google land in one WhatsApp chat.
  • Social media contentFacebook and Instagram posts planned, designed and scheduled for you.

Get paid.

The work is done. The admin shouldn't eat your evening or your cash flow.

  • Voice-note invoicesSay who, what and how much. The invoice goes out from WhatsApp.
  • Automated debt collectingA friendly nudge, then follow-ups on WhatsApp until you're paid.
  • Expense and fuel trackingSnap a slip and it's logged, with records ready for SARS.

Latest project

Recent work.

Different businesses, same problem: not being found, and too much admin. Here’s a recent project, a school website built to be found on Google.

How it works

We build the structure. You grow.

You run it from WhatsApp

Send a voice note, snap a slip, check who's paid. No logins. We keep it running and improving.

About Trellis

A local partner, not a call centre.

Trellis Digital is run by Sean Groves in Johannesburg. With a background in sales, operations and technical work, I know how much time admin, missed calls and chasing payments cost a business. Trellis exists to take that off your plate.

You deal with me directly on WhatsApp. No ticket numbers, no jargon, just the structure your business needs to grow.

Questions

Good to know

Do I need to download an app or learn new software?

No. Everything runs through WhatsApp, which you already use. There is no portal to log in to and no password to remember.

Can I use just one service?

Yes. Start with a website, Google profile or missed-call text back, and add more when you're ready.

How does pricing work?

Monthly services start from R1,200 a month, with no long contract. Websites are a once-off fee, quoted on what you need. Message us with what your business does and we'll send you a quote.

Can you build something that isn't listed here?

Yes. Every setup is built around the business it's for. If something takes up your time, tell us about it.
