What can be done to decrease costs
We encourage budget-conscious clients to come up with a brief, clearly specifying what they want. If the requirements are clear, this will help reduce design costs and in effect, development costs. You can share your ideas by sending us rough sketches, screenshots, or links to what you like, for example.
We advise setting up a headless CMS in cases where internal users want to publish content without involving a developer.
Here's a video showing Sanity CMS in action:
