You built something real.
Now build it to last.

You are good at the work. You have always been good at the work. What is harder — what nobody really prepares you for — is making the business underneath it as solid as the craft on top of it.

Who we built this for

You run the shop.
You answer the phone.
You do the work.

Maybe you inherited it. Maybe you started it yourself in a rented bay with one good machine and more nerve than money. Either way, it is yours now — and you feel the weight of that every day.

The craft part you have handled. It is the other parts — being found by the right clients, pricing the work properly, thinking about what happens in ten years — where the trade has left you on your own.

That is the gap Ruff‑Furb is built to close.

Your reputation travels by word of mouth — and stops there. The architects and designers who would send you serious work cannot find you. That is not a reflection of your quality. It is a systems problem.

ii.

You are thinking past next year. Whether that means bringing someone in, eventually stepping back, or just building something that does not depend on you being there every single day — you want the business to outlast the grind.

iii.

You do not need another app. You need the right one. One that understands what a workroom actually looks like. Built for this trade, not borrowed from some other one and re-skinned.

What we are building

Be found.

A professional presence that puts your work in front of the designers, architects, and buyers who are actively looking for shops like yours — and have no good way to find them today.

Run it well.

The tools and knowledge that make the business side more predictable — pricing, workflow, client relationships. Not theory. Practical things, from people who have actually run a shop.

Build it to last.

Resources for the owners who are already asking the harder questions — about succession, about what this business looks like in fifteen years, about what it means to build something worth passing on.

Tell us about your shop

We are talking to a

shops first.

We are not launching to a list. We are reaching out to shops one at a time — because that is the only way to do this right.

If what we are building sounds like something you have needed, we want to hear from you. Fill in the form and we will be in touch personally. No pitch. No funnel. Just a real conversation.

No commitment. No pitch. We will read this ourselves and reach out directly.

We will be in touch — not with an automated sequence, but with an actual email from one of us. In the meantime, you can read what we have been thinking about at our Substack.
