Back Pocket Developer

Monthly Development Retainer

You're aaaalmost done with your latest website design project and have a couple "simple" code tweaks to make. At least it should be simple. You've already spent 2 hours on Google and just can't. figure. it. out. But this website needs to be perfect and you're not about to give up.

You need a coding and tech expert you can trust to take care of the final tweaks and more in-depth features of a website, so you can wrap up your design projects headache-free with happy clients.

Back Pocket Developer is a monthly collaboration to take care of coding, tech, and maintenance tasks so you can get back to design.

I can't believe that only took you 12 minutes. That would have taken me HOURS. That's why everyone needs you. They just don't know it.

I can dream bigger now with my designs. I'm no longer limited to just what I can do. Plus every last detail of the site is the way I dream it to look like. Also when $#@t hits the fan, I know I have another person in my corner, it's not just me anymore. I have peace of mind and creative freedom.

Krista Rae - WordPress Development for Designers

Hey, I'm Krista!

Creating memorable brands and websites is where your time is best spent. That's how you serve your clients. That's how you make an impact. And that's how you bring in the dollar bills. But the code that comes with designing those intentional websites isn't your cup of tea. Sure, you can push through and make it happen. But it takes way too long, your creativity is limited by your coding abilities, and it totally ruins the excitement as you near the end of a project.

That's what I'm here for! I'm your partner for all things code, tech, and WordPress so you can focus on the pieces of your projects that matter.

Rachelle Demoskoff

I've been able to send Krista all the tasks that come up that would derail me from what I'm working on...and take me hours to figure out! She is able to complete them so easily! I love having Krista as part of my team and would highly recommend her!

Rachelle Demoskoff, Designer

Erin Flynn, Digital Strategist & Mentor

Nikki Corcoran

The whole process with Krista was smooth, reliable and EASY. Needless to say, I'll be keeping her in my back pocket for future projects!

Madison Wetherill

I'm no longer tied to designing what feels safe. I can feel confident building my client's websites based on my creativity, instead of my coding knowledge.
