Patrick Bushe
I design and build websites, ecommerce stores, and digital products from Los Angeles. Every project is founder-led — when you hire bushe.co, you're working with me directly, not a junior team or an offshore handoff.
Past clients include Rob Dyrdek, Peels, Street League Skateboarding, DTA Posse, Pasadena Bar Association, and SpringClick. I use AI tools throughout the process to ship faster — without making the work generic.
Questions buyers ask
What does "founder-led" actually mean?
add
It means I — Patrick — personally do the design and development work. No discovery call where I sell the project then hand it off. No junior account manager. No outsourced contractors. When you pay bushe.co, you're paying me to design and build your site.
How is this different from a freelancer?
add
Two things: (1) Portfolio depth — clients like Rob Dyrdek, Peels, and Street League Skateboarding have shipped to production, not just sat in a Dribbble shot. (2) Process — discovery, design phase with approvals, development phase with weekly demos, 30 days of post-launch support. Most freelancers don't have that structure.
How long does a typical WordPress site take?
add
Most custom WordPress sites are 6–10 weeks from kickoff to launch. Smaller marketing sites can ship in 4–6 weeks. Larger sites with complex integrations or extensive content can run 12–16 weeks.
What about hosting and DNS?
add
I help set up hosting (WP Engine, Pantheon, Kinsta, or a custom setup), DNS migration, SSL, and email forwarding. You own all accounts — I don't lock clients into agency-controlled infrastructure.
Can my team update the site after launch?
add
Yes. Every site is built with custom Gutenberg blocks tuned for non-technical editors. Training is included. Most teams are confidently updating content within the first week post-launch.
Do you do WooCommerce or other plugins?
add
Yes — WooCommerce for ecommerce, MemberPress or Restrict Content Pro for membership, LearnDash for courses, Gravity Forms for advanced forms, ACF for content modeling. The plugin stack is selected based on your needs, not because we have a default kit.
