Chicago, IL
Web design for Chicago small businesses
Chicago is one of the most bilingual big cities in the country, with deep Mexican, Puerto Rican, and broader Latino communities from Pilsen and Little Village to Humboldt Park and Albany Park. A small business here competes for attention in both English and Spanish, often within the same few blocks.
The area, in brief
Chicago's Latino population is roughly a third of the city, concentrated in neighborhoods like Pilsen, Little Village, and Humboldt Park.
The city supports an enormous range of small business types in a few square miles: restaurants, salons, contractors, and shops serving tightly-knit neighborhood customer bases.
Why bilingual matters here
A Chicago small business that only has an English site is invisible to a huge share of its own potential customers, and to the neighbors who'd refer them by word of mouth in Spanish.

Visit siteThe challenge
Barbershop VUSA needed a site that matched its premium, relaxed-atmosphere brand, with online booking front and center so clients could grab a slot without picking up the phone.
Our approach
We built a custom, photo-driven site around the shop's actual space and barbers, with direct booking links, a full services menu, gallery, hours, and directions.

Frequently asked
Do you work with businesses outside downtown Chicago?
Yes, most of the small businesses we work with are neighborhood businesses, not Loop offices, restaurants, shops, and local services across the city's neighborhoods.
