Haines Creative

Founded in Naperville, Illinois in 2006 by Guy Haines, Haines Creative is a small web design and marketing agency operating with a close-knit network of designers, developers, writers, and marketing specialists rather than a large in-house staff. The agency has deep roots in the local Naperville area, with several staff members based there, and describes serving small to medium-sized businesses, brands, and organizations both locally and internationally. Its work spans initiatives of varying sizes, and it positions itself as an extension of a client's business, with an emphasis on ongoing collaboration. Services include User Experience (UX) design, website design, search engine optimization, custom WordPress development, logo design, pay-per-click and Google Ads management, marketing strategy, ecommerce hosting, and creative writing. The agency follows a stated process of listening to client needs, brainstorming, concepting ideas, building and refining the product, then launching and analyzing results, summarized internally as a build-measure-learn cycle. Maintenance, analytics tracking, and ongoing improvements are offered after launch for clients who want continued support, alongside options for clients who prefer full independence once a project is delivered. Guy Haines, the agency's principal, works as strategist and developer across projects, drawing on prior experience managing websites, marketing budgets, and teams across multiple agency disciplines.
