A small team for growing businesses

Nova Business is a studio of strategists, designers and developers. We work with companies that are too big to do everything themselves and too small for a large agency.

How we started

We started in 2016 after years of watching good local businesses struggle with websites they could not update and brands nobody on the team understood.

So we built the studio we wished existed: one team that plans, designs, builds and then sticks around to help.

Our vision

Every growing business should have a brand and a website it is proud to show.

Our mission

To give smaller companies the planning, design and technology that larger ones take for granted.

What we value

Clarity

We explain options in plain language and write things down.

Craft

Small details are what customers notice. We sweat them.

Honesty

Realistic timelines and estimates, even when they are not what you hoped to hear.

Care

We treat your business like a long-term relationship, not a single project.

The team

The people you meet in the first call are the people who do the work.

They asked better questions about our business than we had asked ourselves. The plan they gave us is still pinned above my desk.
