The brief

House of Eight is a brand and growth agency for female founders, led by Rachel de Kalbermatten. Brand strategy and positioning, full-scale social media management, growth and operations, and a shop of toolkits for founders who aren’t ready for a retainer yet. The launch page had held the space while the agency got ready. The brief for the full site was to carry that same bold, no-fluff energy across everything: sell the retainers, sell the toolkits, and get the right founders onto a strategy call.

What we built

The site opens on a short intro film that plays once per visit, then hands over to the hero: the chrome wordmark over a moving metal backdrop, Rachel front and centre, and the four services listed beside her. From there it reads the way Rachel pitches on a call. Why HO8, what they do, the numbers they've delivered, then the investment, with retainer and one-time options side by side so founders can see where they fit before they book.

The toolkits had to sell without Rachel in the room. They run from the CMS, so a new product is one new entry, with checkout through Lemon Squeezy. They're split into a Founder track and a Freelance track so each buyer finds theirs fast, with six featured on the home page and the full range on its own shop page.

Contact and booking live on one page: a form for anyone with a question, and a booking calendar straight underneath for founders ready to talk. Every page is laid out for desktop, tablet and phone, with one animation system running through the whole site so it moves like one brand.

In their words

I hired Jye to build my website, and he exceeded every expectation I had. He was early on every deadline and could do anything I asked, even the weird, last-minute stuff. He’s also genuinely fun to work with, creative and technically skilled.

What sets him apart is how well he understands the whole digital landscape. He knows how a site needs to function and how it needs to look good, and he builds with both in mind. As a marketing agency owner, I work with a lot of contractors, and he’s one of the best. I’ll keep referring him to my clients, and I’d recommend him to anyone who needs a website done right.
