A beautiful website is important, but it’s only part of the story

Michael Venia outdoors, smiling

I’m Michael.

I’ve spent over 15 years in digital marketing and professional agencies, working with businesses ranging from local companies to well-known enterprise brands. I’m Google Certified, with a background that runs deep in the medical industry and has expanded over the years into real estate, e-commerce, professional services, and lots of businesses in between.

I grew up overseas, but San Luis Obispo is home now, where I live with my kids and pup. Most of my clients are here on the Central Coast, with others scattered throughout California and out of state.

My favorite part of the work is getting to know the people behind the businesses. Watching traffic climb, leads come in, and revenue grow because of changes we made together is what keeps this work exciting after 15+ years.

Outside of digital marketing, I’m usually somewhere around music
