You should design a simple, professional, and mobile-friendly single-page website that clearly presents your two apps.
This is the first thing visitors see—it needs to state your value immediately.
Main Title: Clear and specific, e.g., "Essential Tools for USPS & NALC Letter Carriers"
Subtitle: A brief, compelling line, e.g., "Simplify your schedule and track your pay with our custom mobile apps."
Call-to-Action (CTA): Prominent buttons that link directly to the App Store and Google Play for both apps.
Example CTA: "Download NALC Calendar" | "Download Pay Calculator"
Visual: A carousel or side-by-side display of screenshots from both apps on a smartphone mock-up.

Dedicate a section to its key features and benefits, focusing on the pain points of the NALC work schedule.
Title: NALC Unofficial Calendar: Know Your Days Off
Key Features:
Interactive Non-Scheduled Days (NSD) Calendar: Clearly show the rotating schedule for years in advance. (The official NALC app has a similar feature, so highlight what makes yours better/different, e.g., speed, customization, ease of use.)
Holiday Shift Tracking: Automatically shift NSDs when they land on a holiday, so carriers know exactly how many unscheduled days they have.
Customizable Views: Allow users to input their specific schedule or route type.
Focus on the app's ability to ensure accurate pay, which is a major concern for hourly employees.
Title: Accurate Pay Calculator & Time Tracker
Key Features (USPS/NALC Specific):
Clock Ring Record: Simple, quick input of "begin tour," "office move," "street move," and "end tour."
Automatic Calculation: Auto-calculate straight time, overtime, and penalty time based on NALC contract rules.
Record Keeping: Keep a daily/weekly/pay-period record of time worked that can be exported (e.g., as a CSV or PDF) to verify paychecks.
Break/Meal Deductions: Easily account for breaks and meal times.
Benefit: "Never get underpaid again. Easily reconcile your hours against your ePayroll statement."
About the Developer: Briefly introduce yourself and explain why you built these tools (e.g., "Built by a fellow carrier who understands the contract."). This builds credibility and trust.
Support/Contact: A simple contact form or email address for support, bug reports, and feature suggestions.
Mobile-First Design: A majority of your users will view this on their phone, so ensure the site looks and functions perfectly on a small screen.
Fast Loading: Use optimized images and keep the code lean. Slow sites cause users to leave.
NALC/USPS Branding: While you can't use official logos without permission, use a color scheme that suggests the industry (e.g., blues, whites, and reds) and use clear, professional language. Always refer to your apps as "Unofficial" to maintain legal separation.
