Digital Solutions for Small Businesses

Digital solutions are web-based solutions that help businesses operate more efficiently. Common digital solutions include web design, eCommerce, and point-of-sale. Each of these solutions offers different benefits that can help businesses save time and money. For example, web design can help businesses create a professional website that is easy to navigate and looks great on all devices. eCommerce solutions can help businesses set up an online store and accept payments securely. Point-of-sale solutions can help businesses process transactions quickly and efficiently. By taking advantage of these digital solutions, businesses can stay ahead of the competition and improve their bottom line.

As small business owners, you know that one size does not fit all when it comes to your business needs. That’s why we’re experts in building custom solutions that are tailored to your specific business requirements. Whether you need a simple website, better appointment booking, or a complex eCommerce solution, we can work with you to create a solution that meets your needs and budget. We understand that every small business is unique, and we’ll take the time to get to know your business so that we can provide a solution that fits like a glove.

Knowing about all the available solutions to your problem can be overwhelming. Maybe you started with Squarespace or Wix, and you’re not getting exactly what you need. We understand these website builders are easy to make websites, but they lack the business tools you need. A website should do more for you than your business card. Let’s show you how.

About Us

Hi, I’m Clayton Winter, the owner of Outfields Digital Solutions. Every business needs technology, but not every business has the time or knowledge to get all these systems working together smoothly. I left my communications job at a tech company to connect small businesses with the digital solutions they need.

Formally we are Outfields Digital Solutions, but our friends call us Outfields. Why Outfields? We took the name because when an idea comes out of the left field, it’s usually a good idea. Outfields plays off of that since we don’t do things the traditional way. If you’ve worked with an IT company before, you’re in for a real treat working with us. If you’ve worked with a web developer before, we tend to say yes where people have said ‘no that’s not possible.

We don’t believe in being the biggest or the flashiest; we believe in just giving people what they need. Honesty and good service.

Client Testimonials

When we decided our website needed updating, I contacted Clayton for some advice. We wanted a fairly quick turnaround, and he was able to accommodate us. His expert advice and knowledge made the process very easy for us. He took the initiative to research our specific industry and what operating systems we currently use to better understand our needs and what would work best for our website. Additionally, he was very prompt at returning emails and making the changes we requested. We will be retaining his services for web hosting throughout the year and going forward.

Clayton had the vision to bring our website to life. He listened to our ideas, created an interactive mock-up site and then made the changes we asked for. In the end, it is perfect and just what we wanted. The website itself is very eye-catching and is an efficient marketing tool for our business. Taking online bookings could not be easier and saves us a lot of time, so we can now focus on providing great guest experiences.

“We were so happy to have Clayton rebuild our website. We are busy small business owners and his many helpful suggestions on how to automate our processes and suggestion to build a marketing website has resulted in less time on the computer, more time to devote to building our business and an increase in sales, in particular our packages that were not up front and centre on our previous website.”

“Clayton lead the vision of the marketing for Mahkesis Group. He helped us clear up the messaging and focus on helping our customers.”

“Clayton helped us get the Binesi Training Centre off the ground. When we started the project we only had one page that was made in Microsoft Word. He helped us find a learning management system that was affordable and worked with WordPress. We’re excited to expand our online courses in the following months.”

What are digital solutions?

Digital solutions are web-based solutions that help businesses operate more efficiently. One example is connecting a booking engine to a website and than connecting a payment provider to the website. Take a step further and sync the payments to an accounting platforms so you can skip a lot of manual work, saving you a lot of time.

What booking engines do we use?

We will build your site using WordPress and look at solutions together. Most of our customers have been very happy using the plugins we tailor to our customers, sometimes our customers like to use other software like Resnexus, Little Hotelier, or Reservation Key. At the end of the day we want something that will work for you and stay within your budget.

How much does it cost?

A ballpark estimate for these projects is somewhere around $3000 – $6000 for the website build and booking engine implementation. After the build we usually charge $35 for hosting your website and the software we use to build your site. It can vary based on the content you’ve already created, how big you want to go, and how many packages you want to offer to your customers.

How does it work?

The first step is booking at call with us. During the call we’ll get to know each other. We’ll ask you questions about your business and the requirements you’re looking for. After that we’ll send you a proposal that outlines the budget and the timelines to complete the project. Once the proposal is accepted we get building and usually complete the project within 12 weeks.
