Imagineers Designer started when I was in college.
I already had some freelance experience building websites with WordPress and Elementor. At the time, these tools were one of the most affordable ways for SMALL BUSINESSES to get a professional website without paying for custom development.
A friend asked if I could teach him what I knew. I did not set out to start an agency, but around the same time I found an inexpensive hosting plan that could support many websites. That gave me a simple idea: we could learn, build, and take on projects together.
I had almost no sales experience. So I searched for local marketing agencies on Instagram and began calling them. After a few conversations, one agency agreed to let me build its website. I offered to do the first project for free, with one request: if they had clients who needed websites, they would refer them to us.
That small referral arrangement became our starting point.
We built websites for small businesses using WordPress and Elementor, learning delivery, client communication, design, and referrals through real projects. Imagineers Designer was never meant to be a large, structured company. It was a college-era experiment that gave me my first real experience of finding customers, delivering work, and building something with a small team.
