Our Story
We started in 1998, offering website design and over the years, we have included business strategy consultation, e-commerce development and digital marketing services such as copywriting, content production and social media management. We currently offer an ongoing live stream series that you can watch for free on LinkedIn, Facebook & Youtube
as well as a podcast in addition to our book and entrepreneur game.
We are more than just a website development company;
our aim is to help entrepreneurs succeed online.
When you work with Redbox Studio, you’re working with people who have the expertise and experience to help you.
But more than that, you’re working with people that you can trust.
It is trust that makes the relationship work.
If you’re a solo entrepreneur, CEO, lawyer, consultant or doctor and you’re trying to figure out how to get the best out of the online space, you’ve come to the right place.
You’re excited to go online yet a little intimidated. And you’ve heard about us. Or maybe a friend referred you to check us out.
And here you are.
You’re not even sure if this online thing will work but you’re willing to give it a try. Maybe you have had a website before and that didn’t work. Or maybe you don’t even have a website yet.
It doesn’t matter.
What matters is that you want to go online. The world is going digital. You need to go digital too but you need to work with people you can trust. And you want results – customers and sales. We get it. We’re business owners too.
We started in 1998 to help business owners like you position your business credibly and effectively online with a website. It has to start with a website.
You can’t market effectively today if you don’t have a website. Advertise all you want but you won’t get any results if you don’t lead people back to your website where it matters the most.
Our websites are unique because we’re not website design geeks – we are business owners first and foremost. We combine web design with marketing and communications to produce credibility, visibility and profitability for you.
And your website is a marketing asset that has to fit within your marketing strategy.
Use your website to help you do smarter marketing.
Smarter marketing starts with understanding how a website helps your business and how to use this website to continue marketing your business.
We don’t only design websites, we teach our clients how to market themselves online.
Use your website to help you differentiate yourself online and tell your best brand story.
We craft marketing right into your website so that your prospects will know, like and trust you.
Trust is difficult to convey online but over 23 years, we’ve fine-tuned our design and storytelling process to build trust and credibility in your website.
The process of creating confidence through every element in the website has been honed, polished and perfected since 1998. It is the major differentiator between us and others in the web design industry.
Use your website to help you get the right customers.
How your business websites looks and performs is the difference between getting a prospect’s attention or not! Our websites create results for clients – attracting higher-quality prospects that turn into business deals.
While website design and e-commerce websites are still part of what we offer, we’ve expanded into teaching marketing to entrepreneurs who want to learn smarter ways to reach out to customers.
We share through workshops and virtual teaching and training as well as use the business game for entrepreneurs that Nic invented called Big Timer.
