Start here
What are you trying to do?
01
I've got an idea.
Let's work out whether there's a business in it and what the smallest sensible next step looks like.
02I want more customers.
Let's look at how people find you, why they choose you and where the gaps are.
03Something's doing my head in.
Admin, bookings, systems, repeat work. There may be a much easier way to do it.
04I need something made.
A website, a booking system, an online shop or something oddly specific to the way your business works.
05I want to learn.
We'll show you what matters, how it works and enough to make a proper go of it yourself.
06I've no bloody idea.
That's fine too. Start with what you'd like to be different.
Tell you.
Show you.
Do it.
The answer depends on what you actually need. Sometimes it's ten minutes of advice. Sometimes you want to learn. Sometimes you just want the thing sorted.
Learn enough to do it.
Workshops, guides and one-to-one help built around useful things you can actually put into practice.

Who's behind it?
Hi, I'm Will.
I'm originally from Pembrokeshire and I've spent much of my career building things and solving problems in the digital world.
Websites, software, online businesses, cloud systems, marketing, data and a fair amount of the less glamorous stuff that makes businesses actually work.
Pembs Works came from a pretty simple thought: a lot of that knowledge could be useful back home.
So that's the experiment.
What are you trying to make happen?
An idea, a problem or something that's been sitting on the list for six months.
