Web Development

If you don’t have a website, we can help you build one from scratch. If you already have one that needs fixing, we still got you. We know the language to develop websites that attract, engage and covert. We specialize in several technologies, including LAMP stack systems, including WordPress and Drupal, and MERN stack technologies, including React.js. Others include .NET and Adobe Experience Manager (AEM). 

Social Media Management

When your brand shows up on social media, you’ve pulled a seat up to the table. Social media is where your clients learn, talk and have fun! So if you want to stay top of mind, you need to be where they are. Brain Jar knows how to get your brand into their conversation. 

Photo/Video Production

There’s no better way to tell your brand’s story than through video, and Brain Jar will make that happen. We create social media posts, promotional videos, vlog content and even some commercials for TV (so you’ve most likely seen our work!) Our team of professionals have decades of experience in Hollywood film production, and we bring that to your project. 

Ad Campaigns

Google and social media ads can be overwhelming, and it’s so easy to take a wrong step and waste money. Brain Jar knows these ads inside and out and knows how to maximize your return, so every penny of your budget is wasted. We’re so confident in our abilities that we guarantee that we’ll double the money you invest in your campaign, or you don’t pay!

Old-School Cold Outreach

Cold calls and cold emails are the friendly handshakes of the business world. They let you reach out to potential customers you might never bump into otherwise. And Brain Jar is great at it! We guarantee that we’ll book 20 meetings with qualified leads, or you don’t pay!

Research & Analysis

Brain Jar conducts a variety of research and produces reports that are clear, easy to look at and even enjoyable to read! The studies we can do include:

• Website/web app usability studies
• Focus groups
• Web traffic/ad campaign analysis
• Marketing strategy review

 

Process

Define

Our team will first understand what your needs are and ensure that we understand your brand

Design

Our designers will create a plan. For websites, this is wireframes and mockups. For social media, this is a content calendar. For video, a storyboard. For ad campaigns, it’s a project board.

Refine

We want to make sure the plans is just right, so we’ll hold two sessions to review every piece of planning material and get your approval before putting the plan into action.

Build! Record! Launch!

With plans approved, our web developers will build your website, our director and crew will film your video, our ad specialist will launch your campaign, our social media expert will start posting. All you have to do is nothing!
