Our Story
We build websites for small business owners who want to grow their business and who need a website that matches their ambitions.
There’s something about small businesses – from the ideas, to the thrill of making each sale, to the joy of seeing the positive impact you’ve made. Building a successful business isn’t just about having a great product or service. It’s also not about being available 24/7. You need to have a strong online presence that reflects your brand and values and that brings in clients.
That’s where we come in. As a website designer we don’t just see your website as a piece of IT. We understand your website is a crucial marketing tool that needs to fit into your broader marketing and business strategy. One that works for you.
That’s why, when you work with us, we take the time to learn about your business, your clients, and your plans for growth. So we can help you elevate your business from where it is to where you want it to be … and beyond.
We’re not here to build a website and then disappear. We’re here for the long haul, supporting you and your business every step of the way. In fact, over 95% of our clients continue to work with us each year.
I’m Marie. Founder of Beyond the Kitchen Table, former banker, now website wrangler. I’m a mum, wife, daughter, friend and owner of a mischievous dog. I understand the juggle that comes with running a business around other responsibilities. And I am passionate about supporting entrepreneurs build successful businesses that support the life they want to have.
I have a degree in business finance and spent nearly 20 years in the corporate world – helping businesses thrive.
I speak human. No jargon. No waffle. Just clear, practical advice to help you get a website that does its job beautifully.
I started this business after a frustrating (and expensive) experience trying to get my own website built. I felt overlooked, misunderstood and very much at the bottom of someone’s priority list.
So I created the service I wish I’d had: websites built with care, collaboration and no eye-watering price tag.
I know life’s messy. Plans change. Tech goes rogue. That’s why we make the process calm, flexible and easy to follow – so you can get on with what you do best.
We’re thrilled that our efforts have been recognised more widely, notably

As seen in
Marie and her team have created a lovely new website for my business.
She was excellent at guiding me through the website building process which I had been slightly anxious about.
My previous website was self built, but what a difference it has made having one professionally designed for me by Marie.
It explains my treatments and what I do clearly and concisely, with easy navigation for the potential client, and also reflects my skills, journey and personality, which is exactly what I wanted.
I’m very happy with it, thank you!
