Gabriel Mourao of Helping Hand Outsourcing creates reliable and affordable websites for small businesses and nonprofits. His team collectively has over 20 years of experience in delivering work for game-changing startups, international companies, and influencers.
“From a young age I’ve tasted the sweet nectar of entrepreneurship. From starting animation companies in primary school to founding lucrative digital agencies – my passion for creation only grew. Coming from a humble family and not being able to fully evolve academically, I had dived into endless hours of online tutorials, becoming self-taught. I became proficient in graphic design and motion graphics, later on evolving into web development with the intent to never stop growing.”
FMM: How long have you been designing websites?
I have been designing websites and working from home for about 6 years now. I actually started when a graphic design client asked if I could make websites, I ran to video courses to learn and get it done on the job. The website was a success and she kept bringing clients my way. I loved working on websites so much that I shifted to working exclusively on that.
FMM: Tell us about your family.
I was born in Brazil but raised in the United Kingdom from the age of 5. My older brother actually started Web design and Graphic design way before me having done a course in university and introducing me to this field of work.
FMM: You work with a lot of small businesses. Tell us about your work.
The idea of my digital agency Helping Hand is to really take the weight off the client’s shoulders. So, we try to cater to every need. Sometimes we receive requests from large companies that just need a revamp, so it’s mainly design and web development work, seen as they tend to have all the branding, content and marketing material in place. In other cases, we get some independent people starting off who have not even a logo yet. Our team’s collective experience allows us to make logos, marketing material, social media content, copy, web development and design all in one place. Our main line is “Taking the weight off your shoulders affordably, effectively and reliably”. Due to Helping Hand being based in Brazil but serving a global market, we have very competitive rates.
FMM: What do you enjoy most about working with small businesses?
I love how involved the client becomes in the process, emotionally speaking. They themselves start to form a bond with our team and really take a liking for the entire process. It’s easier to align our thoughts and be on the same page every step of the way. Small businesses also tend to have less people involved that have ideas that differ from one another.
FMM: Do you offer graphic design services?
Yes, we can create flyers and promos for your brand or events.
Helping Hand Outsourcing has received rave reviews from clients.

with and was always prompt in replying to questions. I would highly
recommend them.
FMM: The holidays are approaching. Why is it good to revamp a website for holiday sales?
Everything around us is constantly changing and we sometimes make the mistake of holding onto things for a bit too long. One thing that is certain to always change and evolve are people’s buying trends. What they search on the internet almost directly affects their purchasing decisions. When a potential client accesses an outdated and neglected website, they tend to move along to something more professional that instantly gains their trust. Some companies refuse to revamp their websites in order to save money or by the misconception that they’d need to change everything. Something as simple as functional changes in your site that leads to a better result will also mean ‘website redesigning’. It’s to be noted that if done well, a website overhaul can prove to be a great investment for your business. Potential clients always view seasonal websites to be more active.
FMM: Do you help with landing pages?
We most certainly do! We design full landing pages for events, course/product launches, dynamic single-paged business websites and much more.
FMM: What are looking forward to as we approach the holidays?
I am definitely looking forward to seeing companies with brilliant, strategic holiday offers that want to squeeze the most potential out of their conversion machine (website). We want to make sure they are all very well equipped and constructed to be a stable form of automated sales/capture.
