When your current system no longer fits
I can improve the software you already use, or build a simple tool for a task that is still being handled with spreadsheets, email, or paper.
Less time fixing workarounds. More time running your business.
When a system is slow, repetitive, or getting in the way, you shouldn't need to know the technical answer. Tell me what is frustrating you. I’ll help work out what needs fixing or improving, explain it in plain language, and agree the cost before I start.
Short introduction
A straightforward way to get help
Tell me what is going wrong or what you wish your system could do. You don’t need to know the technical terms.
How I can help
Make the everyday work easier
I’ve spent more than 15 years helping businesses make their software work better. Maybe a task takes too long, information has to be copied between systems, or an old tool is holding you back. We’ll start with the problem you see, then decide together what will help.
When the same task keeps eating up time
I can help reduce repeated copying, chasing, and data entry, so there is less busywork and fewer things falling through the cracks.
Clear communication, from start to finish
You’ll speak directly with me. I’ll explain your options, keep you updated, and make sure you know what the work will cost before I begin. Read client reviews.
What you can expect
Work you can understand and build on
I want the fix or improvement to keep helping after the job is done. I make changes carefully, explain what has changed, and leave clear notes so the next update is easier to manage.
How I work
Thoughtful help, without the tech talk.
I’ll listen to what is making your work harder, explain the choices in everyday language, and recommend a sensible next step. If a simpler solution will do the job, I’ll say so.
Pricing
Clear, straightforward pricing
These are my standard rates. Before any work starts, we’ll talk through what you need and agree the time and cost, so you can decide if it makes sense for your business.
- Tell me what is happening in your own words; you don’t need to arrive with a technical solution.
- For work booked by the week or month, I’ll send you a weekly update on what’s been done.
- If you’re unhappy with the work, I won’t charge you for the part you’re unhappy with.
A careful approach
Changes made with care
When software supports your day-to-day work, a change needs to solve the problem without causing a new one. I check my work, explain what has changed, and make it easier to pick up again later.
- I check that the change works before it goes live.
- I take care not to disrupt the parts of your system that already work.
- I leave clear notes about what I changed.
- You get a chance to review the result.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Some practical answers before you get in touch.
What if I need you for more than a day, a week, or a month?
No problem. We can discuss a custom arrangement that suits your needs.
What if I am not happy with your work?
If things do not go as expected, I offer a full refund of the upfront payment. I only charge for work that satisfies the client.
Do we need lots of meetings?
No. We can usually agree what’s needed with a few clear messages and a call if it would help. I’ll keep you updated without adding meetings you don’t need.
What if I need you for less than a day?
The minimum charge is for a full day.
"Seriously amazing!"
Janez is capable, reliable, dependable and very supportive. I run a small business in London and was looking for someone remote who could do the IT bits for me, setting up the back end for websites. I quickly felt I could trust him with my project. He delivered excellent results while helping me understand how it all works behind the scenes.

"Excellent work!"
As ever with Janez. On this occasion integrating a content API feed with a PHP-based CMS that he had not encountered previously. Dealt with quickly and efficiently, great communication and understanding. Very highly recommended.

“I run a small business and needed someone I could trust with the IT side.”
That’s what one client said after we worked together. I’ll take time to understand what you need, explain things clearly, and help you feel comfortable with the work.
