What does Shmeppel do?

We are a B2B digital product studio that builds custom websites, online booking systems, CRM pipelines, and workflow automation for companies digitalizing and scaling their operations. We combine business analysis with hands-built software, so each product is shaped around how you actually win and serve clients — not a template. Founder Shelly Heiman leads every engagement under the line “Scale Higher.”

Is Shmeppel an agency or a freelancer?

We are a boutique studio: a focused team handling strategy, design, and development end to end, rather than a large agency that hands you between departments. The person scoping your project is the person writing the code, so nothing gets lost in a handoff. Every engagement is custom-scoped instead of slotted into a fixed package.

How do I start a project with Shmeppel?

Start by emailing [email protected] or sending us a message through the site describing your business and what you want to achieve. We reply within 24 hours and set up a short discovery call to understand the problem before scoping anything. From there you get a prioritized plan and a quote before any work begins.

How does Shmeppel structure an engagement?

Every engagement runs through four stages: discovery, plan and scope, build, and launch and growth. You always know what is being built, in what order, and why. We keep the same team on your project from discovery through handover.

How much does a website or custom software project cost?

Pricing is quote-based because every project is scoped to your specific business, not sold as a fixed package. We set scope, deliverables, and a quote together in a discovery call, then put everything in writing before any work starts. There are no surprise charges — you approve the plan and the price up front.

How long does a project take to build?

Timelines depend on scope — a single booking system moves faster than a multi-section website or a CRM rollout across locations. We give you a concrete, written timeline at the end of the strategy stage, before build begins, and hold to it with regular check-ins. You will never be left guessing where the project stands.

What technology does Shmeppel build with?

We build custom front-ends and back-ends in Node.js rather than locking you into rigid website builders or page templates. That means booking flows, CRM pipelines, and automations are built to fit your exact process and integrate with the calendars, email, and tools you already use. You own the code, so you're never locked into a platform's roadmap or price hikes.

Does Shmeppel offer support after launch?

Yes — we offer ongoing support covering content updates, performance and security monitoring, and a quarterly review of what to improve next. Launch is the start of the relationship, not the end, so the product keeps evolving as your business grows. You get priority access when something needs attention, without managing a thing yourself.

Does Shmeppel work with clients worldwide?

Yes. We work with B2B clients worldwide and are based in Europe, collaborating over video calls and shared documents with timezones accommodated. Most projects run fully remote from discovery through launch and ongoing support.

What kinds of problems does Shmeppel solve?

We solve the operational drag that holds growing businesses back: manual phone-and-paper booking, leads lost in scattered notes, a website that fails to convert, and a brand that is invisible when customers search. We replace those with automated booking, a tracked CRM pipeline, a high-converting custom site, and a consistent online presence. The goal is always measurable — more qualified enquiries, fewer no-shows, more deals closed.
