Digital marketing that earns its keep.

I work with small businesses and nonprofits on the work that compounds: websites built to rank, SEO that builds over time, paid campaigns with real tracking, and social strategy with a point. Based in Chicago, working everywhere.

01

Custom Web Development

For organizations that need a site that actually performs.

Built by hand. No page builders, no bloated themes. Every site I deliver targets 95+ on Google Lighthouse.

Most small business websites were built quickly and never optimized. They're slow on mobile, invisible to Google, and don't reflect the quality of the work behind them. I build sites from scratch in Astro or standard HTML/CSS — fast, semantic, and structured to rank from day one.

What you get

  • Fully custom design and development — no templates
  • Mobile-first, responsive across all screen sizes
  • Performance-optimized — target 95+ Lighthouse score
  • SEO-ready semantic HTML, schema markup, and metadata
  • CMS integration, contact forms, and analytics setup
Best for: Nonprofits, climate orgs, and small businesses that need a real web presence — not a template. See Flags USA and Carbon Underground as examples.
02

SEO: Organic Growth That Compounds

For organizations that want search to become a reliable channel.

Technical fixes, content strategy, and keyword targeting — done in the right order, for the right terms.

SEO done wrong is expensive and slow. SEO done right compounds: every fixed title tag, every internal link, every piece of well-targeted content builds on the last. I handle the technical work and the content planning so you're not guessing at what Google wants. Read my guide to the five SEO fixes that move the needle to see how I approach this work.

What you get

  • Full technical SEO audit and implementation
  • Keyword research and content gap analysis
  • On-page optimization: titles, meta, headers, internal links
  • Structured data and FAQ schema markup
  • Monthly Search Console reporting with real metrics
Best for: Small businesses and nonprofits that want sustainable search growth without paying agency retainer rates.
04

Social Media Strategy

For organizations whose social presence isn't converting to real outcomes.

Platform-specific strategy, content that has a clear ask, and the follow-up systems that turn interest into action.

Posting consistently is not a strategy. Most organizations produce content that earns likes and builds sentiment but never converts to donors, customers, or sign-ups. I help teams build a content system with a deliberate ratio of storytelling, data, and direct asks — and the email and retargeting infrastructure to close the loop. Read my nonprofit social media guide to see how I approach this work.

What you get

  • Platform selection and audience strategy (Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, TikTok)
  • Content calendar with intentional post-type ratios
  • Graphic and caption creation per platform format
  • Email list integration and follow-up sequence setup
  • Monthly reporting on conversion metrics, not just engagement
Best for: Nonprofits and cause-driven brands whose followers aren't converting to donors, volunteers, or customers.
05

TikTok: Short-Form That Builds Audiences

For organizations that want to reach younger audiences at scale.

797K+ organic views built through Swiizo Editing Lab. I know what hooks work and why.

TikTok is the only platform where a brand with zero followers can reach hundreds of thousands of people on its first video — if the content is built correctly for the platform. Most organizations either ignore it entirely or repurpose content from Instagram that performs poorly. I build TikTok content from the hook outward, using the editing and structure principles I've developed through my own channel.

What you get

  • TikTok content strategy and account audit
  • Video editing and caption writing built for the platform
  • Hook structure optimization for watch-through rate
  • Trend integration that stays on-brand and on-message
  • Performance tracking and monthly iteration
Best for: Climate orgs, advocacy groups, and nonprofits targeting Gen Z and Millennial donors or supporters. See Swiizo Editing Lab as examples.
06

Digital Audits

For organizations investing in digital without knowing what's holding them back.

A prioritized diagnosis across your website, SEO, ads, and social — with a specific action plan, not a list of problems.

Most organizations don't need more activity — they need to know which activity is producing results and which is wasting resources. An audit gives you that picture in a few days rather than months of trial and error. I deliver a written report with ranked priorities and specific next steps, not a dashboard of metrics with no context.

What you get

  • Website performance, speed, and UX review
  • Technical SEO audit: indexing, schema, titles, structure
  • Social media content and conversion review
  • Paid advertising account review (if applicable)
  • Written report with ranked priorities and specific next steps
Best for: Organizations that want a clear picture of what to fix before committing to ongoing work. Good starting point before any retainer.
07

Comprehensive Digital Strategy

For organizations whose digital efforts aren't pulling in the same direction.

A full-stack plan with channel priorities, a 90-day roadmap, and KPIs people can actually track.

Most organizations don't have a digital strategy — they have a collection of tactics with no clear priority order and no shared goal. This engagement produces a documented plan: what channels to focus on, what to stop doing, what to build toward in 90 days and 12 months, and how to measure whether it's working.

What you get

  • Full digital audit across all active channels
  • Audience research and primary persona development
  • Channel strategy with clear prioritization and rationale
  • 90-day and 12-month action roadmap with owner and timeline
  • KPI framework tied to actual business or fundraising goals
Best for: Organizations ready to stop scattered marketing and build a plan with real priorities and measurable outcomes.

How we work together

Four steps, no surprises. Every project runs the same way.

01

Discovery

A free 30-minute call to understand your goals, current setup, and what's holding you back. I'll tell you upfront if I'm not the right fit.

02

Proposal

A clear scope, timeline, and fixed or retainer price. No ambiguous deliverables, no surprise invoices mid-project.

03

Execution

I build, write, launch, or strategize. You get regular updates without status meetings that could have been an email.

04

Results

Reporting on the metrics that matter, plus an honest debrief on what moved the needle and what to do next.

What it costs

Every project is scoped individually. These ranges reflect where most engagements land based on scope and complexity.
