Marq Studio builds and runs the system that answers, texts back, and books the customer you'd otherwise have lost — every missed call, every after-hours enquiry, every form nobody replied to in time. Free 14-day pilot on your real phone line. If it doesn't recover work, you owe nothing.
Nobody notices a missed call as a loss. It just feels like a quiet evening. The job it was carrying doesn't feel like anything at all — it just goes to whoever picked up next.
Any call that goes unanswered gets a text within 30 seconds, asking what they need and when works for a callback.
Outside working hours, calls get answered by a voice agent trained on your business — not a generic voicemail box.
Web form and SMS replies land in one place, qualified, with a booking already offered — nothing sits waiting for you to notice it.
The system runs live on your actual phone line for two weeks, completely free, no card required to start.
Calls captured, enquiries answered, bookings recovered — a plain report, not a sales pitch, at the end of the pilot.
If it recovered work, it becomes a flat monthly fee from day 15. If it didn't, it switches off and costs you nothing.
Lead recovery is the main focus. These are the branches around it.
Websites built and kept running for businesses that don't have one yet: design, build, hosting, monitoring, all handled.

Taking on the first free 14-day pilots now, to build the first real case studies and testimonials.
Taking on early clients now, including free mockup builds to establish the first real portfolio pieces.
Scoping what businesses actually want before committing to how it's built.
The first and currently only live branch of Marq Studio. Design, build, hosting, and monitoring, one flat plan, no surprise costs later.
Marq Studio itself, the site you're reading right now, is the first Marq Sites build. No separate portfolio needed yet: what you see is exactly the quality every client gets, since it's the only standard that exists here.
Prices in USD, shown in your currency too.
These aren't upsells. Every plan, including Starter, includes all of this by default.
Built for phones first, since that's how most visitors actually arrive, then scaled up cleanly to desktop.
Proper titles, descriptions, and structure so search engines can actually find and understand the site.
No bloated builders or unused plugins dragging load times down. Pages built lean from the start.
Every site is served over HTTPS with a real certificate, not left on plain HTTP like a lot of DIY sites end up.
Connected to an actual working inbox, tested before launch, not a form that silently fails.
Real back-and-forth before launch, not a single take-it-or-leave-it draft.
DIY builders like Wix or Squarespace are genuinely fine tools. This is who each option actually suits.
Best if you have time to learn the tool, enjoy designing it yourself, and don't mind being the one who notices when something breaks.
Best if your time is worth more spent running the business, and you'd rather it just works, with someone accountable when it doesn't.
If a DIY builder is genuinely working for you already, that's a fine outcome too. Marq Sites exists for businesses that don't have that yet, or are tired of fighting the tool themselves.
No. You provide the business info and content (or say you need help writing it), the technical side is entirely handled.
Clean, modern code and reliable managed hosting, chosen per project for what's fastest and most stable, not locked to one drag-and-drop platform.
Yes, that's exactly the kind of feature the Lead Recovery add-on or a plan upgrade covers as the business grows.
Your business name, what you do, and any existing content (logo, photos, text) if you have it. If you don't have those yet, that's normal too, it gets figured out together.
Marq Sites is early. In exchange for a testimonial and full creative control, the first three businesses get a Starter Build at no cost. That's the honest trade: real portfolio pieces for you, a real working site for them.
Claim a founding spotMarq Studio is one person, building this from Harare: Tawananyasha Muzondo, who goes by Don Marq. No inflated agency claims, no outsourced work you never hear about. Every project is handled directly, start to finish, with the same standard applied whether it's the first client or the fiftieth.
The plan is simple: get one branch genuinely right before opening the next one. Lead recovery is first, with Marq Sites running alongside it. What comes after depends on what businesses actually ask for.
Background: strong in maths and computer science, self-taught through building (and breaking) real projects rather than theory alone. Marq Studio exists because that same problem-solving gets pointed at something with a clear, immediate use: businesses losing real money to calls nobody answers.
Not a portfolio of one-off builds. The goal is a small number of branches, each genuinely good at one thing, each with real clients who'd recommend it, grown slowly enough that quality never slips to hit a number.
You work with the person actually building your project, no relay through account managers.
No "request a quote" games. Every branch publishes its actual prices before you ask.
Lead recovery runs free for 14 days first. You only pay once you've seen it work.
Each branch has to genuinely work before the next one opens. No spreading thin early.
Based in Harare, built for anyone, anywhere. Pricing shown in your currency, work delivered remotely either way.
Yes. Marq Studio is an independent, one-person-run studio. It's early and growing branch by branch, starting with lead recovery and Marq Sites. What you see here is exactly what's being built, no bigger than it actually is.
You work directly with the founder on every project, no middlemen, no outsourcing to someone you'll never speak to.
The system runs alongside your existing line — missed calls trigger the SMS follow-up, and after-hours calls route to the voice agent. Nothing about your number changes, and it can be switched off instantly if you want to stop.
Nothing is charged during the 14-day pilot. If you continue after, the monthly fee and any call/SMS usage costs are agreed upfront before anything is billed.
The pilot can usually go live within a few days of a quick call to understand your business and hours. Full details get confirmed per project, not promised blind.
Yes. Lead recovery is built specifically for UK and international service businesses. Everything is delivered remotely, and pricing shows in your local currency to make that easier.
Cancel any time, no lock-in contract, whether it's the lead recovery system or a Marq Sites maintenance plan.
Whether it's lead recovery, a site, or something you don't see listed yet, start here and we'll figure out the right fit together.
A reply directly from the founder, not an autoresponder, usually within a day.
The 14-day pilot is free and non-binding. Reaching out doesn't commit you to anything.
Say that in the message. Figuring out the right fit is part of the conversation, not something you need to know before you ask.
Only what you type into the contact form: your name, email, and message. Nothing is collected automatically, and no third-party trackers are used on this site.
Used only to reply to your inquiry. Never sold, shared, or used for marketing without your separate, explicit okay.
Anything built for you (site, content, assets) is yours once paid for. Ongoing maintenance and lead recovery plans are optional and can be cancelled at any time, no lock-in contracts.
Questions about your data or a project: use the contact form above and it'll be answered directly, not by a bot or a support queue.
