01 — About Terence
HertfordshireTerence Meghani — brand consultant, Hertfordshire & London

One brain. Twelve years. Your brand, unmistakable.

Twelve years of building brands and shipping code, based between Hertfordshire and London. Studio of one — brand, code, growth, all from the same brain.

For more than a decade I’ve built brands for scrappy startups and global names (BBC, News UK, Royal London, NHS, TEDx) — with the same close, personal approach to each.

My work spans four practices most studios split across four teams: WordPress Operations, custom plugin development, AI and automation, and strategy-led brand work. One brain joining those dots means faster decisions, sharper output, and brand, code and engineering pulling in the same direction.

Big agencies route you through account managers. I don’t. You work with the person doing the work — based in Watford, delivering across London and worldwide. Most engagements start with a thirty-minute call.

02 — Manifesto

A weak brand fades.A loose codebase fails.Both compound — for or against you.

I run an independent studio of one — brand, code, growth, all from the same brain. No account managers, no handoff chain, no committee. Twelve years of strategy, design and engineering aimed straight at the problem in front of us.

Most engagements start with a thirty-minute call and end with something measurable — revenue, performance, time saved — not impressions.

What I build, with you.

Four core practices — strategy-led brand and three engineering disciplines that put it on the internet properly. Click any card to flip.

05 — Why me

Better than agencies. Better than care plans. Both, in one studio.

Big agency

The usual
  • Junior routes through 3 layers of account management before reaching the person doing the work.
  • Sixty-slide pitch decks, quarterly retainers, six-figure minimums.
  • Your brief gets watered down by committee before a pixel is pushed.
  • Long onboarding, slow feedback loops, glacial decisions.
  • Strategy deck handed off; execution handed somewhere else entirely.
  • Measured in impressions. Rarely measured in revenue.
Average cost£80k+

Care plan / freelancer

The other extreme
  • One-developer-shop with a one-line invoice and no engineering rigour.
  • Cheap monthly fee that covers backups and not much else.
  • “We’ll look at it next week” when something actually breaks.
  • “Have you tried clearing the cache?” as the first response to every issue.
  • Strategy left entirely to you. Execution left to whoever’s cheapest.
  • Measured in uptime alone, never in revenue.
Average cost£600/yr that doesn’t move the needle

Terence's team integrated Directus CMS into our site cleanly — performance, UX and reliability all dialled in. A year on, choosing this studio was a game-changer for our web hosting company.

Total professionalism from website to branding — exceeded everything I expected. I needed a modern, unique twist to match my authentic flamboyant self. The studio did not disappoint.

We asked Terence to design our TEDx University of Salford website — he delivered an amazing job. A consummate professional. We were impressed enough to bring him back for a second website.

We met Terry during a rebrand — he came to the office, took the time to understand the business. He's been our main point of contact for design, marketing and website maintenance ever since.

As a key decision maker on a website rebuild, I was reluctant about a young company. I'm so pleased we went ahead — extremely reasonable pricing, professional execution, and clear communication throughout.

07 — Questions, honestly answered

Before you book.

01How quickly can we start?
I take on a small number of engagements at a time so communication stays direct and the work gets the attention it deserves. We’ll have a call, understand what you actually need, and agree a start date that works for both sides — never a pressured deadline.
02What's the minimum engagement?
There isn’t one. Some projects are a focused brand piece; others are ongoing operations retainers; some are advisory or interim work. I scope around what the problem actually needs — no padded retainers, no six-month minimums, no off-the-shelf packages. Start with a conversation.
03Do you work in person or remote?
Both. I’m based between Hertfordshire and London and happy to come to your office for kickoffs, presentations, and big decision moments. The working week happens async — shared Figma, Loom updates, weekly calls. Clients outside the UK work with me entirely remote.
04Do you build WordPress plugins from scratch?
Yes — custom WordPress plugin development is a core specialism. I build bespoke plugins, API integrations, custom admin tooling and AI-powered plugin extensions. I also ship six productised plugins of my own. If there’s no off-the-shelf plugin that does what you need — or the existing ones are bloated, insecure, or slowing your site — I’ll build exactly what you need. Performance-first, properly documented, yours to keep.
05Can you integrate AI into my existing site or workflow?
Yes. AI & automation work ranges from custom GPTs trained on your brand voice, to content-operations automations, to AI-powered WordPress plugins that slot directly into your site. The goal is the same every time: AI that sounds like your brand — not ChatGPT.
06Can you take over a WordPress site that wasn't built by you?
Yes — most of the sites I operate I didn’t build. WordPress Operations starts with a £1,950 fixed-price audit so I can baseline what’s there, fix the critical issues, and only then start the retainer. You don’t pay an operations fee to inherit someone else’s mess. The audit fee is deductible against the first three months of retainer at Orbit or Apogee tier.
07How does WordPress Operations differ from a "care plan"?
Care plans run backups and push updates. WordPress Operations diagnoses at the engineering level — server logs, database health, scheduler integrity, mail authentication, plugin-induced load. The work happens before things break. Tiers from £1,500/month (Boost) through £6,000/month (Apogee), depending on the level of attention your site warrants.
08Can I hire you for strategy only — no design?
Yes. About a third of engagements are strategy-only — positioning, naming, messaging architecture, brand voice. If you already have designers you like, I’ll deliver the thinking and hand it over clean for your team to execute.
09What happens on the discovery call?
No slides. No fluff. 30 minutes split three ways: you tell me what’s going on (10 min), I ask the questions that usually unblock things (10 min), we land on a concrete next step (10 min) — whether that’s working together, a referral, or just a clearer picture of the problem. Often the last one is most useful.
10How do you price?
Brand and plugin engagements are quoted fixed-fee after the discovery call, based on scope and timeline — never hourly, never estimated on the spot. WordPress Operations is monthly retainer with three published tiers (Boost £1,500 / Orbit £2,500 / Apogee £6,000). Either way you get a written proposal within 48 hours of our call. No creep, no surprise invoices.
