Your clients. Your brand. Our studio.
Australian agencies use us as their silent production team — fixed pricing, NDA as standard, AEST-compatible timezone. We build. You deliver. Your clients never know we exist.
Most Australian agencies hit the same wall: local web developers are expensive, the good freelancers are booked out, and the offshore studios they have tried before either deliver mediocre quality, go silent mid-project, or create more management overhead than they save. We built our white label program specifically to solve all three — quality work, consistent communication, and a timezone that actually overlaps with your business day.
- 20–30% below retail pricing — your margin is yours to set.
- Mutual NDA signed before the first brief — confidentiality is standard, not an add-on.
- Fixed quotes within 24 hours. No scope creep surprises.
- Deliverables under your brand — no BWD name, logo, or metadata anywhere.
Why Australian agencies struggle to scale
The agency growth ceiling is almost always a capacity problem, not a client problem. Here is what we hear consistently:
- Local developers cost AUD 80–150/hour — that margin is nearly impossible to pass on to SME clients, so agencies either absorb it or lose the work to cheaper competitors.
- Good freelancers are unreliable at scale — a great freelancer becomes a bottleneck the moment you have more than two projects running in parallel. They go silent, miss deadlines, or burn out.
- Previous offshore experiences were painful — language barriers, timezone misalignment, and quality mismatches mean more rework than if you had done it yourself.
- Hiring in-house too early destroys margins — a full-time developer is a fixed cost that kills the business in slow months. Agencies need capacity that scales with their workload, not against it.
- Time spent managing production is time not spent selling — the agency owner ends up doing quality control instead of growing the business, and the studio stagnates.

How the partnership works
We have designed the process to be invisible from your client's perspective and low-friction from yours:
Why Bali — and why the timezone matters
Timezone is the single most underrated factor when choosing an offshore partner. Most agencies assume "offshore" means delayed responses and missed standups. Bali is different:
| Location | Timezone vs AEST | Morning standup possible? |
|---|---|---|
| Bali (us) | −2 hrs (−3 AEDT) | Yes — 7 AM Bali = 9 AM Sydney |
| India | −4.5 to −5.5 hrs | Difficult — 9 AM Sydney = 3:30–4:30 AM India |
| Eastern Europe | −8 to −10 hrs | No — async only |
| Philippines | −3 hrs | Workable but limited window |
| Local AUS dev | Same | Yes — but 3–5× the cost |
Beyond timezone, we work in English as our primary business language. Briefs are read and actioned accurately. Questions are asked when something is unclear, not after a week of silence. This is not a given with offshore studios — it is something we have built intentionally.
Partner pricing
All rates below are your cost — what you invoice your client is your decision. These are confidential between us and are not published on our public pricing page.
| Service | Partner Rate (AUD) | Typical Retail Markup |
|---|---|---|
| Starter website (up to 7 pages) | From AUD 550 | AUD 1,200–1,800 |
| Business website (8–15 pages) | From AUD 1,400 | AUD 2,800–4,500 |
| E-commerce website (WooCommerce) | From AUD 2,200 | AUD 4,500–7,500 |
| Website redesign | From AUD 550 | AUD 1,200–2,500 |
| Landing page / campaign page | From AUD 390 | AUD 800–1,500 |
| Monthly maintenance retainer | From AUD 220/mo | AUD 350–600/mo |
| Additional revisions (after 2 rounds) | AUD 90/hr | AUD 150–180/hr |
Exact quotes are provided per project after reviewing the brief. Rates above represent our most common configurations — complex builds or tight deadlines are quoted separately.
Confidentiality — how we protect your client relationships
We take the silent part of "silent partner" seriously. Every measure below is standard practice on every project, not something you need to ask for:
- Mutual NDA signed before any brief is shared — covers both parties, includes non-solicitation of your clients for the duration of the partnership.
- No BWD branding in any deliverable — staging URLs use neutral domains, file metadata is stripped, CMS admin is configured for your client's brand.
- Zero direct client contact — we do not email, call, or message your client at any point. Ever. Not even to confirm a technical detail.
- Partner pricing is confidential — we do not disclose our rates publicly. Your client cannot discover what you are paying us.
- We do not list partner work in our portfolio unless you explicitly grant permission. By default, your client's site is never attributed to us.
Frequently asked questions
Will you communicate directly with our clients?
Never. All communication runs through you. Your client does not know we exist — that is the point. We operate as a silent production arm, not a vendor you have to introduce.
What is your timezone — can you overlap with AEST?
We are in Bali (WITA, UTC+8), which is 2 hours behind AEST and 3 hours behind AEDT. A 9 AM Sydney standup is 7 AM for us — we are at our desks. This is meaningfully better overlap than India (4.5–5.5 hours behind) or Eastern Europe (8–10 hours behind).
How does partner pricing work — can we see the rates before signing an NDA?
We share indicative ranges before the NDA — see the partner pricing table above. Exact per-project quotes are provided after the NDA is signed and the brief is reviewed. Your margin is yours to set; we never discuss our rates with your clients.
What if we need revisions our client requests after delivery?
Partner projects include two rounds of revisions. After that, additional work is billed at AUD 90/hour, invoiced to you. We never bill your client directly or interact with them at any stage.
Can we see your quality before committing to a full project?
Yes. We are happy to share a portfolio call, provide references from existing agency partners, or run a paid test project — a landing page or single-page scope — so you can evaluate our quality and communication style before committing to a full engagement.
What happens if our client delays or goes quiet mid-project?
Projects are paused with a 30-day free hold window. After 30 days, a small reactivation fee applies to re-brief the team. We understand agency timelines shift — this policy has been built based on real experience working with agencies.
Do you work with agencies that do not have a brief template yet?
We provide our own brief template. Many partners find it useful to adopt it for their own client intake — it is designed to capture exactly what we need without asking you to collect information twice.
