Why BusinessWithTom Exists
Most Singapore SMEs don't have a website problem. They have a system problem — and no single person who's accountable for fixing it.
The problem I kept seeing
Business owners were paying three or four different vendors — one for the domain, another for hosting, someone else for the website — and when something broke, nobody knew who to call.
Emails went to spam. Websites went down. Nobody was accountable. And every "fix" was just another patch on top of a system that was never set up properly in the first place.
After 12 years working as a digital marketing manager, I started BusinessWithTom because I wanted to be that one accountable person — the one who actually understands how everything connects, and fixes it properly.
What I Do Differently
I audit the whole system — not just the website
I give you clarity first, before asking for money
I work on one thing at a time, properly — not five things badly
I stay accountable after the work is done
I explain what's broken in plain English, no jargon
Why not just hire someone?
It's a fair question. Here's the honest answer.
You can't hire me as an employee — I'd cost you at least SGD 10,000 a month in salary alone. Add Singapore's mandatory 17% CPF employer contribution, and you're looking at over SGD 11,700 a month, or more than SGD 140,000 a year. For one person.
And that's if you hire someone at my level. A fresh graduate with the right CV might come in at SGD 2,500 to 3,500 a month — but they'll spend 3 to 6 months figuring out what I already know. By the time they understand the problem, you've spent upwards of SGD 15,000 and you're still waiting for results.
Outsourcing your website and digital system to BusinessWithTom is a completely different equation. You get senior-level expertise, fast execution, and an ongoing relationship — at a fraction of what it would cost to bring that in-house.
"The smartest businesses don't hire for everything. They hire for what they need, when they need it — and outsource the rest to someone who already knows what they're doing."
