Orange County, California

Marketing, photography and software for businesses in Costa Mesa.

Costa Mesa runs on retail and restaurants. South Coast Plaza, with more than 270 stores, anchors the South Coast Metro side of town, while the smaller local spots cluster along 17th Street on the Eastside and at The LAB and The CAMP on Bristol Street. Just over a third of residents are Hispanic or Latino, and there is a Mitsuwa Japanese market here too.

What we do

What we do for businesses in Costa Mesa.

The marketing brings customers in. The software keeps them and runs the business behind the counter. One studio does both, so nothing gets lost between an agency and a developer.

How it works

Four steps. About two hours of calls, plus one shoot day or one review round.

  1. Day 0

    Free audit

    A 20-minute call, then three written findings about your site, Google profile, menu or social within two business days. No pitch deck.

    Your time: 20 minutes

  2. Week 1

    Plan and fixed quote

    We agree what to do first, what it costs and when it goes live. The quote is fixed. If your head office reads Japanese, Korean or Spanish, the plan comes in both languages.

    Your time: 45-minute kickoff

  3. Weeks 2–4

    Shoot or build

    The shoot day happens at your place. The website or system is built in the open, with a staging link you can check any time. One review round.

    Your time: Shoot day plus one review

  4. Launch

    Go live, then keep going

    A one-hour recorded training. Social clients get their first published calendar. Systems clients get a support plan and a named engineer to text.

    Your time: 1 hour, then about 30 minutes a month
