Working with Dardo from Minneapolis
Dardo is a three-person design studio in Bogotá, Colombia, led by its founder, Nicolás Cerón. We work with companies in Minneapolis remotely: there is no Dardo office in Minneapolis. Calls happen on video, in English or Spanish, and everything we agree goes into a written proposal.
Bogotá keeps UTC−5 all year, with no daylight saving time. Minneapolis is 1 hour behind Bogotá in January and on the same clock as Bogotá in July, so a nine-to-five day in Minneapolis shares 7–8 working hours with a nine-to-five day in Bogotá.
A project starts with a brief through the contact form, by email to hello@dardo.studio or on WhatsApp. Nicolás replies within one business day with the questions that set the scope. The proposal that follows lists the scope, deliverables, assumptions, exclusions, payment stages, a timeline and the people doing the work, by name.
Quotes typically come in at about half of what comparable US and Canadian studios charge for the same scope. Pricing explains how a quote is built.
What a B2B website design project includes
The project covers strategy, design, build and the CRM connection in one scope. The foundations are those of our custom web design work; what changes is a page model drawn from your sales conversations, the proof on each page and what we measure. The proposal lists which of these are included:
- Interviews with sales, customer success and recent buyers, including a lost deal where possible
- A buying-committee map and a page model that gives each stakeholder's questions a page
- Solution, pricing-model, security, integration and working-with-us pages
- A case study format that states scope, evidence and limits
- Desktop and mobile designs, built as reusable components your team can extend
- Forms connected to HubSpot or Salesforce, with source fields, routing and spam protection
- Pipeline reporting that matches website key events to CRM stages
The B2B website design service page has the full scope, the process and the questions buyers ask.
How fast websites in the United States are on phones
In October 2026, 63.9% of the websites in the United States measured by Chrome's user experience report passed all three Core Web Vitals on phones, according to the HTTP Archive. The platform behind a site moves that number:
| Platform | Sites measured | Pass on phones |
|---|---|---|
| Wix | 34,241 | 88.8% |
| Shopify | 118,272 | 86.1% |
| Squarespace | 40,344 | 82.9% |
| Framer | 1,909 | 82.2% |
| Webflow | 15,239 | 80.9% |
| WordPress | 330,180 | 63.3% |
Speed comes from how a site is built more than from the platform, and Google uses Core Web Vitals in search. The platform speed report has the same numbers for other countries.
Rules a website in Minneapolis has to meet
These are the rules we plan around for sites that serve customers in Minneapolis. They are a starting point, not legal advice.
- The ADA and websites: the Department of Justice says the Americans with Disabilities Act covers the websites of businesses open to the public, and points to WCAG as the reference.
- State and local governments: a 2024 DOJ rule requires WCAG 2.1 AA from state and local government websites, from April 2026 for larger governments and April 2027 for smaller ones.
We build to WCAG 2.2 AA and set up consent and forms for these rules from the first brief.

Questions before you choose
Does Dardo have an office in Minneapolis?
No. Dardo is a three-person studio in Bogotá, Colombia, and works with companies in Minneapolis remotely, on video calls, in English or Spanish.
What is the time difference between Minneapolis and Bogotá?
Minneapolis is 1 hour behind Bogotá in January and on the same clock as Bogotá in July. Bogotá keeps UTC−5 all year, so a nine-to-five day in Minneapolis shares 7–8 working hours with ours.
How much does B2B website design cost with Dardo?
Each project is quoted by scope in an itemized written proposal in US dollars, with no minimum budget.
How much does a B2B website cost?
It depends on the page model more than the page count: stakeholder pages and case studies, who writes the copy, languages, the CRM integration and any migration. Dardo has no minimum budget, and our quotes typically come in at about half of what comparable North American studios charge. The written proposal separates strategy, design, development, content and third-party costs, so you can compare it line by line.
What does a B2B website design agency do?
It turns what your sales team explains on calls into pages each buyer can read on their own: solution and use-case pages, case studies, a security page and a pricing-model page. Then it designs and builds them, connects the forms to your CRM and reports which pages and sources lead to opportunities, not only visits.
