About Drew Schug

Hello, my name is Drew Schug. Bio pages are usually the place where you are supposed to tout accomplishments and exercise some arrogance. As a thoughtful digital web designer and marketer I hope that I represent myself in a manner that plainly states what I have done. During this time, I cannot take full credit for every project I have worked on, as I have worked with some pretty remarkable people. My goal is to win your trust and help your business succeed, I believe that my background and experiences have served me and my clients well, whether collaborating or taking it on myself. Whenever I approach a project I look to bring it in on time and on budget. I am worth your time. If you have to present this to your boss or partner, hopefully this list will help you.

Drew Schug’s Overview

“Drew Schug relies on a diverse pool of the most talented people to work with, but the constant heart, brains and soul of the operation is owner Drew Schug.”

Drew’s resume includes a backdrop as a content strategist, web designer, graphic designer, creative director, and interactive marketing manager with skillsets ranging from an eye for design, to a soft-spoken, effective management style, not to mention technical experience in CSS/HTML, Javascript, XML, and PHP, Google Analytics, Adwords and much more.

“Our mission is to focus on the customer, listen to the data, and present actionable insights to move goal-oriented projects forward.”

For me, that means determining what a company’s true goals are, how to measure them and then customizing websites to directly achieve those milestones. It also means taking care of customers even after the website is done: providing analytics with valuable next steps that not only prove the benefits of the website and help clients maintain control of their content, but also making sure the site continues to serve their ongoing business needs.

When torn away from his computer and many techno-gadgets (marketers call people like him “early adopters”), we ski, hike, bike and fish in the scenic mountains of Bozeman,  with his family.
