Here’s how companies lose time + money:
🚪 A revolving door
The constant cycle of finding, recruiting, and training freelancers or full-time employees is exhausting. With multiple developers and strategists in and out of your company, technical debt piles up while the delays compound as each new hire is brought up to speed.
🐌 Slow execution
Most freelancers and agencies don’t have a process to get onboarded and wait for you to make the first move. The longer it takes to get onboarded, the longer before actual progress can be made. Slow execution not only brings frustration, but lost revenue.
🥕 The wrong motivator
Hourly-based relationships are stressful for everyone. It encourages freelancers to artifically extend projects and makes you, the customer, worried about how your dollars are being spent. This prioritizes short-term thinking over long-term succes.
💸 Expensive Overhead
Bonuses. Equity. Benefits. PTO. Taxes. Recruiting costs. All of these can inflate your development costs by almost 60% over our fractional development model.
Our model saves you time + money while putting your company’s success first:
🧘♂️ Peace of mind
Move beyond the never-ending cycle of recruitment and hiring with world-class talent that you can trust. We get to know your company on a deeper level over time so that we “just get it” and are able to quickly iterate and bring that context into every project.
⚡ Fast execution
We have a process to get to know your company and existing strategy or codebase quickly. We get the context needed to begin delivering quick wins. We’re here to do the work and deliver results. Fast.
🤝 A beautiful partnership
Our incentives align with your company’s long-term success. Our model is designed for companies that realize that no product is truly finished post-launch. If you see your website as more strategy than digital placeholder, we can help.
📉 Cost-effective solution
You get a team of world-class professionals without the inflated costs of a single full-time employee. Save $50K-$200K a year vs hiring your own full-time employees.
Care. Strategy. Development.
The better way to get results.

Working with HappyWP, I am always impressed with their knack for novel solutions that 1) have great performance on the front end 2) a clean, native user experience in the CMS 3) scale our complex WordPress instances in a manageable way 4) are completed within a reasonable budget. What more could you ask for? HappyWP is awesome and our company has benefited immensely from their time and attention to our website.”

Step 1
Book a no-pressure intro call.
Meet with our founder, Nathan Parikh, for a quick 15-minute Zoom call. We’ll go through some preliminary questions, and if we’re a good fit, we’ll move on to step 2.
Step 2
Schedule your Digital Roadmap Session.
This 1.5-2 hour meeting is with all of the decision makers for the project at had. We’ll explore all the moving parts and variables of your project – ie. who this project is for, why we’re doing it, what resources we have available, how it needs to be done, and when it needs to be delivered.
Essentially, we’re going to ensure we have answers to all the big questions, and that everyone is on the same page.
We’re going to define the success criteria for this project so we know exactly what it looks like when we’ve hit a home run for you.
Step 3
Get your custom digital strategy.
We’ll craft a custom 6-12 month plan to make sure we can achieve the success criteria in the given timeline.
If you proceed with us, the Roadmap fee acts as a credit toward the total cost.
Step 4
Get Results.
We oversee your digital strategy for the next 6-12 months and use our expertise and connections for fulfillment. You see measurable results for your brand.

Frequently
Asked
Questions
How much time am I actually getting for my money?
We take a value-based approach. We ensure that our work is of the highest standards by a) moving quickly but not rushing, b) working with a team of incredibly capable people, c) following an established process with checks and balances.
What does the onboarding process look like?
Once you get started, you will receive an email with a link to your customer portal. You will also receive two invites: one to our Slack where you will have a dedicated channel, and one to our project management tool where you can submit and track tasks.
How do we communicate?
We primarily communicate using our project management platform as well as over Slack. Zoom meetings are included in the Strategy subscription and are available as an add-on to our Developer subscription.
Why Wouldn’t I just hire my own developer or STRATEGIST?
You could, but quality, process, and communication are always a risk. In our experience, it often doesn’t end well unless you have experience managing freelancers, which is a headache in itself. We remove all the risk by managing the process and quality checks for you. Also, the annual cost of a full-time senior-level developer or digital strategist now exceeds $100,000, plus benefits (and good luck finding one available).
How do I know you won’t delay the turnaround time?
Why would we? The more great work we can do for our clients, the better! Every time we deliver quickly is an opportunity to expand our brand and make you happy.
What is your refund policy?
We do not offer refunds. You can cancel any subscriptions in your customer portal at any time.

“I also am slightly reluctant to recommend HappyWP – but only because I’d like to keep their services freely available for myself. Since that would be awesomely selfish of me, here goes:
— Annie Sisk
You can’t do better than hiring Nathan and HappyWP. Period. They will do what you hire them to do, for a reasonable price, in an expert manner, and on time. Then, they’ll exceed your expectations.
I recommend their services to any WordPress site owner without reservation or qualification of any kind.”
