Santa Monica, CA
Telling Marketing delivers web design and digital marketing in Santa Monica for startups, restaurants, hotels and wellness brands. We build fast, modern websites and grow them with SEO, social media and paid ads, so both locals and visitors find you first.
The challenge
Santa Monica businesses serve two audiences at once: residents and tech workers who live nearby, and visitors searching on their phones near the Pier and Third Street Promenade.
Our process
We map who your customers are, locals, commuters or visitors, and what they search for before they choose you.
We design a fast, mobile-first site with clear booking, reservation or sign-up paths.
We run SEO, social and ads together and show you which channels bring customers.
Every project starts with a fixed-price proposal. See our process and pricing, or start with a free website and SEO audit.

Local
Santa Monica's economy mixes technology companies from the Silicon Beach scene with hospitality, retail and health and wellness businesses. A startup needs a site that impresses investors and early customers; a restaurant needs reservations from someone walking down Main Street. We plan each site around the action that matters most.
Our Los Angeles team works with Santa Monica clients by phone, Zoom or in person when a project calls for it.

What clients say
Real feedback from businesses we have worked with, shared with their permission.
“We’d gotten vague estimates from other agencies and had no idea what the project would actually cost. Telling Marketing sent a written proposal with scope, timeline and a fixed price within two days.”
“What stood out was that they agreed on the page plan and keywords in writing before any design started. We weren’t guessing about what we were getting.”
“Knowing our domain, website and ad accounts stay in our name has been a relief. We’re not locked in, and that changed how we felt about the whole decision.”
