Who We Build For
Every local business.
Every industry.
We specialize in Northeast Wisconsin and Michigan's Upper Peninsula — two regions full of great businesses that still don't have a website worth sending someone to.
Restaurants
Inline menus with real pricing, weekly specials, reservation links, Google Maps, and your hours front and center. We build restaurant websites that convert hungry customers — not PDF downloads that send them to a competitor.
Bars & Supper Clubs
Tap lists, weekly events, live music schedules, happy hour times, and your full food menu — all mobile-friendly. Supper clubs and sports bars deserve a site that works as hard as the Friday fish fry crowd.
Pizza & Takeout
Full menu with prices, online ordering links, pickup hours, and your phone number always visible. If someone Googles your pizza shop and lands on a bare Facebook page, they order somewhere else.
Coffee Shops & Cafes
Daily menu boards, seasonal drinks, loyalty program info, hours, and your story — all in a fast, beautiful site. Coffee shops live and die on neighborhood loyalty; your website should build it.
Bakeries
Custom order forms, seasonal menus, photos of your work, pickup and delivery info. A bakery with a great product but no website is leaving repeat customers on the table.
Tattoo Studios
Artist profiles with style specialties, portfolio galleries, a full online booking scheduler, deposit policies, and studio hours. We build tattoo shop websites with multi-step booking built in — clients pick their artist, style, date, and time without a single DM.
Barbershops
Barber profiles, service menus with pricing, online booking, and your walk-in hours. Whether you're a one-chair shop or a 5-barber crew, your website should be booking chairs — not just listing your Instagram.
Hair Salons
Stylist bios, service menus, online booking integration, photo galleries, and gift card info. Salon clients research before they book — your website is the audition.
Nail Salons
Service menus with pricing, gallery of your work, booking links, and your hours in one tap. Over 90% of nail salon traffic comes from mobile — your site needs to work perfectly on a phone.
Yoga Studios
Class schedules, instructor bios, pricing and memberships, new student offers, and online sign-up. A yoga studio website should feel as intentional as your practice.
Gyms & Fitness
Membership plans, class schedules, personal trainer profiles, before/after results, and trial pass offers. Gyms that show up in local search with a real website win walk-ins from competitors who don't.
Martial Arts Studios
Class schedules for kids and adults, belt program details, instructor credentials, free trial sign-ups. Parents research martial arts schools thoroughly before enrolling their kids — be the clear choice.
Dispensaries
Product highlights, strain categories, medical and recreational info, compliance disclosures, store hours, and Dutchie/Jane menu integration. Michigan UP dispensaries especially benefit from strong local web presence — competition is low and search traffic is real.
Gun Shops & FFLs
Service listings (transfers, consignment, gunsmithing), compliance info, store hours, and contact details. Gun shops are systematically underserved by web designers — a professional site immediately sets you apart in local search.
Auto Detailing
Service packages with pricing, before/after photo galleries, booking, and customer reviews. Detail shops that show their work online book more appointments — period.
Churches & Nonprofits
Sermon archives, service times, ministry pages, leadership bios, online giving, and volunteer sign-up. We offer discounted rates for verified 501(c)(3) nonprofits and churches — because community organizations deserve professional digital presence too.
Retail & Boutiques
Product showcases, store hours, gift card links, local delivery or shipping info, and your brand story. Local shops compete with Amazon on experience — your website is the first chapter.
Home Services
Service areas, job galleries, customer reviews, and a clear call-to-action that sends leads straight to your phone. Plumbers, electricians, HVAC techs, and contractors who show up in local Google searches win jobs that go to whoever answers first.
