There's more to your brand than a logo and a google ad. TLD develops modern, search-optimized websites for desktop and mobile viewers. We design with customer engagement in mind and incorporate CRM flow whenever possible. We offer photography and custom video services for a well-rounded look and feel of your company's brand and online presence.

There's also more to your web presence than a website. TLD believes in "brand everything" because your company should stand out consistently with its TOTAL online presence. That means targeted keywords, copy and branding for every place you are listed.

We perform all levels of web app development for any type of front-end customer app to company-specific back-office systems. We've created for all industries from a database-driven warehouse inventory system to a business management SaaS application for musicians.

It's the thing only your marketing team cares about. It's also the easiest thing to address so that EVERYONE cares about it. We find the brand and messaging inconsistencies on and offline that tend to build up over time and create confusion for customers. This exercise ends with a care and maintenance playbook for your online presence that includes a list of sites, accounts and "how to" instructions .
