Website Management: Who It’s For, Who It’s Not, and How to Decide

By |2026-02-10T11:15:07-08:00February 10th, 2026|Websites|

Website management gets pitched as something every business needs. That’s convenient for people selling it, but it’s not entirely true. I’ve worked with plenty of businesses where ongoing website management was absolutely worth it, and others where it would have been unnecessary, premature, or simply the wrong use of money. This article exists because website management is often explained poorly, sold vaguely, and misunderstood by the people paying for it. So instead of pretending it’s a universal solution, let’s talk honestly about what website management actually is, who benefits from it, who probably doesn’t, and how to decide what level of support actually makes sense for your business.

Digital Marketing Trends in Greater Palm Springs

By |2026-01-29T15:12:35-08:00January 28th, 2026|Digital Marketing, Email Marketing, SEO, Social Media, Tips, Websites|

Digital marketing in Greater Palm Springs has never followed the same rules as bigger cities, and in 2026 that gap is only getting wider. This region runs on tourism, seasonal residents, events, and short attention spans. People are here for a few days, maybe a few weeks, and they are making decisions fast. That reality breaks a lot of generic marketing advice right out of the gate. If your strategy assumes people are researching for weeks, comparing brands, or slowly warming up to a business over time, it is already out of sync with how this area actually works. […]

Why Your Website Homepage Matters More Than Your Social Media Feed

By |2025-12-11T11:46:47-08:00December 11th, 2025|Digital Marketing, Tips, Websites|

Social media can be great. It’s fun, it’s fast, and it hands out likes like they’re raffle tickets. But here’s the thing many business owners quietly overlook while refreshing their notifications: Social media gets likes. Your website gets customers. One gives you a dopamine hit. The other pays the bills. And while the instant gratification of a viral Reel feels amazing, a strong homepage quietly does the heavy lifting every single day, without showing off or begging for attention. Your Website Is the House You Own Social media is rented property. You don’t control the layout, the rules, the reach, or the algorithm’s mood swings. Your posts perform well one week and disappear the next. Platforms fade (remember MySpace!), trends shift, features get retired overnight (Facebook Live, anyone?), and audiences migrate without warning. Your homepage, on the other hand, is digital real estate with your name on the deed. You control every inch of it—from the messaging to the design to the structure. It works for you 24 hours [...]

How to Tell If a Marketing Consultant Actually Knows What They’re Doing

By |2025-10-24T12:02:50-07:00October 24th, 2025|Digital Marketing, Email Marketing, SEO, Social Media, Tips, Websites|

Hiring a marketing consultant shouldn’t feel like a trust fall, but here we are. The digital world is full of “experts” promising quick results and viral fame, often before they even ask what your business does. As someone who’s been brought in to clean up more than a few of those situations, I figured it’s time to help small business owners spot the difference between a real professional and someone who just figured out how to open Canva.

Some projects are pure work. Others are pure fun. And every once in a while, you get lucky enough to have both — like with Foxi Marketing. Brooke Fox came to me with a new business, a sharp brand kit, and a name that already sounded like it belonged in a good marketing story. My job was to turn all that into a website that looked confident, creative, and — most importantly — Foxi without being fussy. […]

The Day I Found Viagra Ads on a Restaurant’s Menu (and What It Taught Me About Website Maintenance)

By |2025-10-04T13:14:10-07:00October 4th, 2025|Tips, Websites|

Every so often, I get a call that starts with a tone of mild panic and ends with an awkward laugh. A few years ago, one of those calls came from a well-known Palm Desert restaurant that had a small problem — their website was selling something that wasn’t on the menu. […]
