Brand, software, and data.

SanonStudio is a consultancy built for small and family-owned businesses where brand and data aren't separate conversations. Creative strategy on one side, custom software on the other, working together from day one. We built it for owners who are tired of getting handed off between a design agency and a developer who don't talk to each other, and for families who want to pass their business on in better shape than they found it.

Our story

Creative strategy meets custom software.

We started on different sides of the same projects. One of us spent years running creative for brands, the other spent years running data and analytics for businesses that were drowning in spreadsheets. We kept ending up in the same rooms, and we kept seeing the same problem.

Small business owners were paying two vendors who never talked to each other. The data agency would build a dashboard the designer never saw. The designer would build a website that didn't know what the numbers said. The owner would get left in the middle, translating between the two and watching the strategy fall through the cracks.

So we started working together. Not as two freelancers on a shared project, but as one team. The creative decisions get made with the data in the room. The data decisions get made with the brand in mind. The owner gets a single conversation instead of two.

We built SanonStudio for the people we grew up around. Brick-and-mortar shops. Family-owned businesses. Trades. Restaurants. Local retailers. The kind of places big box agencies don't really know how to work with because the processes don't fit their templates. We don't have templates. We build around how you actually run things.

A lot of our clients are in the same spot. They built something real, and now they're thinking about who runs it next. A parent getting ready to hand the business to their kids. A founder who wants to slow down without the place slowing down with them. What they need isn't a rebrand or a new app. They need the stuff that lives in their head written down, cleaned up, and put somewhere the next generation can actually reach. That's the work we care about most.

Two people. One conversation.

You won't get passed off to an account manager. You'll be working directly with us, the whole way through.

Senior Data Analyst

Custom software, data support, and workflow automation. He's spent years cleaning up spreadsheets nobody else wanted to touch and building tools for businesses that had outgrown their process. His rule is simple. If you're doing the same task manually more than twice a week, it should be automated.

Creative Director

Brand strategy, identity, web design, and messaging. She's built brands for small shops, service businesses, and family-owned operations for over a decade. Her rule is simple. If the brand doesn't look like the quality of what you're selling, you're losing customers before you say a word.

How we work

Three things we won't compromise on.

Built for how you work

We don't sell platforms. Everything we build gets shaped around the way your business actually moves, not the other way around.

Honest answers

If you don't need what we sell, we'll tell you. If a cheap off-the-shelf tool solves your problem, we'll let ya know.

One team, no handoffs

You talk to the people doing the work. No account manager, no project coordinator, no ticket system. Just us.
