The email that becomes a full-time job
When customers ask for status, invoices or files by email, someone answers each one by hand. A portal lets them find it themselves, and gives your team one place to update.
The usual way
- Status requests answered one by one
- Files sent by email and lost
- One shared login for everyone
How I do it
- Customers check status themselves
- Documents in one place per customer
- Each person sees only what is theirs
What a customer portal includes
Accounts and secure sign-in
Individual logins with password reset and sensible limits, so nobody shares a password.
Roles and permissions
Customer, staff and admin roles. Open Alliance Learning has separate dashboards for learners, teachers and assessors.
Requests, orders and status
Customers see where things stand, and your team updates one place.
Documents and messages
Files and notes attached to the right customer and the right job.
Reports for your team
Who asked what, what is waiting and what is done, on one screen.

How a portal project runs
- Step 01
Study your competitors
I look at what competitors do well and where they leave gaps, before a single screen is drawn.
- Step 02
Design the UI and UX
I design the screens myself, so what you approve is what gets built.
- Step 03
Build frontend to backend
Pages, accounts, orders, payments and the admin dashboard, built as one job.
- Step 04
Launch and look after it
Speed checked on a phone, then backups, monitoring and changes through website care.

Ask something else on WhatsAppHow much does a customer portal cost?
First versions start at $999 and usually land between $999 to $4,000, with a written quote after I read your brief.

Every record belongs to an account, and every screen checks who is asking. Roles decide what each person can see and do, and changes are logged.

Yes. I connect payments, email and CRM where it helps, and I tell you what is worth connecting in the first version.
Do I own the portal?
Yes. You own the code and the accounts, and I give you the logins at handover.
