## Journal

- [Journal](https://carbonmediasolutions.com/journal.md): Things we have had to solve for clients, written down for the next person who needs them.
- [What a RE/MAX franchise website needs from the Hub feed](https://carbonmediasolutions.com/journal/remax-franchise-website-hub-feed.md): A franchise office's website lives or dies on its listings feed. Seven requirements we learned building a six-office RE/MAX platform with 1,400 listings synced hourly from the RE/MAX Hub.
- [Direct bookings on your own domain with Guesty, in rand](https://carbonmediasolutions.com/journal/direct-bookings-guesty-rand.md): For a South African villa operator, Guesty's own payment processing was not an option for card payments in rand. Here is what we built instead, and the four decisions that made it safe.
- [Moving a practice website off Squarespace without losing your tracking](https://carbonmediasolutions.com/journal/moving-practice-website-off-squarespace-tracking.md): A dental practice's Google Ads depend on conversion tracking that lives on the old site. How we moved Singh Advanced Dentistry to a new website with the conversion actions, DNS and redirects carried across — and the checklist we used.
- [Why we build the demo before the first call](https://carbonmediasolutions.com/journal/why-we-build-the-demo-before-the-first-call.md): For projects we think we are right for, we research the business and build a working demo of its website before the first conversation. What it costs you, what it tells both sides, and why a proposal could never do the same job.
- [Sequential invoices and daily reconciliation for a villa operator](https://carbonmediasolutions.com/journal/sequential-invoices-daily-reconciliation-villa-operator.md): What one operator's finance team asked for when bookings moved online — gapless numbering, invoices at check-out, an immutable archive and a day that balances — and how the booking platform was configured to answer it.
