M&H Wellness
Growth-stage wellness brand, Johannesburg
2025 · 6 weeks · Next.js · Business Engine
The Brief
A wellness coaching brand that outgrew WordPress — rebuilt as a fast, booking-ready platform in Next.js, with phase two already underway.
The Situation
Every new enquiry meant a WhatsApp thread, a manual calendar check, and a payment chased by hand. Mabel and Heinrich were spending evenings on admin instead of sessions — and the site no longer felt like the practice they were building. They needed to be live before seasonal demand, with a clear path to bookings, payments, and resources later — without locking into another template they’d outgrow.
What We Did
The people using it
Clients needed to book a session without starting a phone chase.
Mabel and Heinrich needed one place to see who’s coming, what’s paid, and what still needs a reply — not three WhatsApp threads and a calendar app.
The platform & who owns it
WordPress had been outgrown — page templates couldn’t carry a booking-ready product path.
We rebuilt on Next.js so phase two (payments, resources, client hub) isn’t a rewrite.
They own the content and roadmap; we keep the build solid.
The design & what it does for the business
Warm, not clinical — trust at first glance for spiritual coaching.
Booking sits high on the page and was tested until it held together end-to-end.
Cadence: M&H saw a working version every week from week two.
What Changed
A booking now arrives confirmed and in the calendar before anyone picks up a phone. The site loads faster, enquiries come through the site instead of DMs, and phase two — payments and a client hub — is mapped, not invented later under pressure.
“Bookings arrive confirmed — before anyone starts a WhatsApp chase.”
Looking Back
We launched phase one without the full payment integration because M&H needed to be live before seasonal rush. Phase two picked it up — and the relationship continues past launch.
