Web design for marketing & creative agencies
Brands look at your website before they read your deck. If it looks like a template, they assume your work does too. I build agency sites that look like your own best work.
An agency, not a booth rental
Page Activations is a Toronto creative-tech agency that has spent fifteen years building photo and video activations for brands like Adidas, Nike, Lego and Disney. Their old custom site was organized like a photo booth company, with a page for every piece of equipment, and it sat on expensive hosting run by a developer they no longer trusted.
I moved them to Squarespace and rebuilt the story around the work. The homepage opens on their tagline over full-bleed video, with more than forty client logos right below it and equal-size video tiles for featured activations. The inquiry form asks for event date and budget, so leads arrive ready to quote.
“Very professional, easy to work with and would definitely hire him again!”
The website your clients expect to see
Agencies sell creativity, so a generic agency site works against you. I build sites bold enough to remember and clear enough that the brands browsing them know who to call.
What’s included
Your work, front and center
Case studies show the brief, the work and how it landed, so brands see how you think before the first call.
Clear about what you do
Your services are laid out so a marketing lead can tell in a minute whether you fit the brief, with a page for each service people search for.
Built to win briefs
Clear next steps on every page and an inquiry form that asks for budget, scope and timing, so the leads that come in are worth a call.
Easy to keep current
Your team adds case studies, news and posts in the Squarespace editor, and handoff includes video training, so you never wait on a developer.

Agencies website FAQs
