// why cipher shift

The same process that built us. Now building you.

Nothing we offer is theoretical. Cipher Shift itself was registered, branded, built, and automated by hand in 30 days — and every client runs on that proven system. You're hiring a proven process, not a promise.

// we.built(this-site)

Built ourselves first, then sold

Every service we sell, we built for Cipher Shift first. Our own company registered, our own website deployed, our own CRM automated, our own logo designed — all by hand, in 30 days. You get a proven, repeatable process — not a pitch.

// stack.integrated()

One team. One invoice. One outcome.

No coordinating between a CIPC agent, a web designer, a brand studio, a digital marketer and an automations consultant. We own the entire stack and ship the entire outcome — a fully operational business.

// security.embedded()

POPIA-compliant by default

Our cybersecurity roots show in everything we ship. Privacy policies, data-retention monitoring, and Information Officer registration come built-in. Your business is compliant the moment it's online.

// costs.predictable()

No monthly platform fees

Your site is hosted free on Netlify. Your CRM runs free inside Google Sheets. Your email is R180/month directly to Google. We charge for the work — not for recurring access.

// frequently asked

Questions we're asked most.

Can't find the answer you need? Ask us directly. We reply the same day.
How long does the full launch actually take?
Most clients go from signed brief to fully operational in 10–14 business days. CIPC registration is usually the only external dependency — it typically takes 5–10 business days, which we run in parallel with everything else.
Do I pay ongoing fees after launch?
No mandatory monthly fees from us. Your website is hosted free on Netlify, your CRM runs free inside Google Sheets, and your business email is R180/month directly to Google. Optional monthly retainers (website care, SEO, advertising management) are available if you want them.
What if I already have a company or a logo?
Every service is available individually. Already registered? Skip that step and pay only for what you need. We fill the gaps — website, automation, advertising, brand refresh — and integrate it all.
What if I don't have content or copy for my website?
We write it. Tell us what your business does, who your customers are, and what makes you different — we'll craft copy that sells. No blank-page anxiety.
How do revisions work?
Every package includes two free revision rounds across all deliverables. Additional rounds are R500 each, agreed in writing. Most clients never need a third round.
Why should I trust Cipher Shift over a bigger agency?
Because every single thing we offer, we built for ourselves first. Our own company, our own domain, our own email, our own site, our own automation, our own logo — all built by hand in 30 days. You're not a guinea pig. You're getting a proven process.
What happens if CIPC takes longer than expected?
We build CIPC buffer time into every timeline and communicate proactively. Everything that doesn't depend on CIPC continues in parallel — so your website, logo, and CRM are ready the moment your registration is issued.
Do you work with existing businesses or only startups?
Both. Our Business Launch package is a natural fit for existing micro-businesses that want to upgrade from an unprofessional digital presence. Same process, same pricing.
