Specializing in data-driven strategies, she excels at helping brands grow and connect with their target audiences. Rebecca is skilled at turning complex challenges into clear, actionable solutions, ensuring every campaign aligns with client goals and delivers measurable results.

Mario, originally from Bitola, Macedonia, is a full-stack designer and front-end developer with 10 years of experience. He designs every page with the people using it in mind, then builds it himself in Webflow or code, so nothing gets lost between design and development. The result is a site that is fast, clear and easy for your team to update.

Working Together

As remote workers, or 'digital nomads,' Rebecca and Mario have had the opportunity to collaborate across diverse cultures and global markets. These experiences have not only shaped their creative approach but also enhanced their ability to tackle challenges with a truly global perspective, making them attuned to the nuances of various industries and audiences.

Together, they founded Happiworks to give small businesses and nonprofits what bigger agencies charge far more for: good design, solid development and a site that brings in customers, built by the founders themselves. More than 300 projects later, that is still how every project runs.

We're excited to bring your vision to life. Let's create something amazing together!

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Still on the fence? These are the exact questions past clients asked us before they hit submit.

How much does web design and development typically cost?
Most projects land between $1,500 and $8,000. The price depends on the number of pages, the features required, CMS content and whether a platform migration is involved.

We work closely with our clients to create tailored packages that meet their specific needs and budget. For a full breakdown, see our Charlotte website cost guide.
How long does a project usually take?
The timeline for a project can vary depending on factors like scope and client feedback, typically 1 to 2 weeks for most sites. Larger builds with custom functionality or lots of CMS content take longer.

At Happiworks, we follow a simple, streamlined 3-step workflow: design, development, and final testing & publishing. When brand guidelines, assets, and content are provided upfront, the process moves much more smoothly and stays on track. The timeline can adjust based on the speed of client feedback and the availability of necessary materials.

Throughout the project, we maintain clear communication by sharing timelines and milestones to keep you informed every step of the way.
How do I choose a web design company in Charlotte?
Look at four things: recent work in your industry, who actually designs and builds your site, what it costs and how long it takes, and whether you own the site when it's finished. Ask to see live sites, not just mockups, and check reviews on a third-party platform.

At Happiworks, our founders design and build every project themselves, most sites launch in 1 to 2 weeks for $1,500 to $8,000, and you own the finished site outright. We hold a 5.0 rating across 300+ verified reviews on Upwork.
Should I hire a freelancer or a web design agency?
A freelancer is usually cheaper but often covers only design or only development, and availability can be a risk. A large agency covers everything but adds account managers, junior staff and higher prices.

Happiworks sits in between: a small senior team that handles strategy, design, development and SEO, with the founders as your direct contact from first call to launch.
Do I own my website when the project is finished?
Yes. Webflow sites live in your own Webflow account, and custom-coded sites live in your own repository and hosting. There are no lock-in contracts and no monthly fee to keep your site. Ongoing support is available if you want it, but it's optional.
Can your creative agency accommodate tight deadlines?
Absolutely! At Happiworks, we understand that some projects need a fast turnaround. We evaluate each request individually and can often accommodate tight deadlines by prioritizing tasks and utilizing our in-house team's expertise to deliver high-quality results quickly. For expedited timelines, a rush fee may apply depending on the scope and urgency of the project.
What ongoing support and maintenance do you offer post-launch?
We believe that a successful website requires ongoing support. After launch, we offer various maintenance packages that include updates, security checks, and performance monitoring.

Our team is available to assist you with any issues or enhancements to make sure your website continues to function optimally.
How do you handle revisions and feedback during the design process?
We value client collaboration and believe that feedback is essential to a successful outcome. During the design process, we establish clear communication and set specific revision phases.

We encourage open dialogue, making sure that your input is incorporated into each stage of the project while adhering to the agreed-upon timeline.
Are there additional costs for digital marketing services integrated into web projects?
Yes, while we can integrate digital marketing services into your web project, these are typically offered as separate packages. Reach out to us for more information.
Do you work with international clients?
Absolutely! We partner with clients from around the globe, including the US, Germany, Austria, and other English- and German-speaking countries. We enjoy immersing ourselves in diverse cultures and business landscapes. While our process remains consistent, we’re flexible in how we connect.
