Our story

We started Scout to do this the right way.

We've been building websites and marketing businesses since 2012. Our first company is where we started working with law firms, and that focus stuck. Scout is the specialized version of everything we've learned since: niched, sharpened, and built for the firms we serve best.

So we built Scout to bring everything we've learned into one place: a small team of senior specialists who get to know your firm first, take care of every part of your site, and present you at your best. When you hire Scout, you get our full focus.

Scout is our youngest's middle name, and it fits what we do: we go out, learn a field deeply, and report back.

What we believe

What you can count on when you work with us.

You work with the owners.

We're your project lead, designer, builder, and marketer, and we keep you in the loop from the first call through launch and after.

We build the whole system.

Website, content, search, and marketing are one connected thing. We learn your firm first, then build everything around what makes it different, so we can present you at your best.

The work is always yours.

Your domain, hosting, content, and accounts belong to you. You get a copy of the keys while we work together, and when the project wraps up, we hand everything over.

We're straight with you.

You'll meet everyone working on your site, by name and by face. We tell you what is working, what isn't, and whether we're even the right fit before you sign anything.

How we work

We hold ourselves to five things.

01

We do work we'd put our name on.

Before anything reaches you, we ask whether we'd be proud to have our name on it for good. We don't call it done until the answer is yes.

02

When something's wrong, you hear it from us first.

If a problem comes up, we tell you quickly and bring a plan to fix it. The honest conversation beats the comfortable one every time.

03

We keep up so you don't have to.

The way people find businesses online keeps changing. We stay on top of it so your site and your marketing keep working as the rules shift.

04

We care about your business as much as you do.

The way we see it, we only win when you do. Your growth is the thing we're actually working toward, every week.

05

We do what we say we'll do.

When we commit to something, you can count on it happening, and happening on time. Our word means something here.

Veteran-owned, and proud allies.

We're veteran-owned, Navy through and through. We say it plainly because it's part of who we're. We bring the same straightforwardness and follow-through to every business we work with.
