Websites, brands, and the systems behind them.
SoCal Media LLC builds hand-coded websites, brand identity, and back-end business systems for San Diego companies. Jonathan builds the systems and Marissa leads creative direction.
What we build
Custom websites
Static or app-based builds, hand-coded by Jonathan, deployed to a CDN, and ready for search from day one. Examples include socalmediasd.com and SoCalRollers.com.
Brand identity
Logo, voice, palette, and design system, so the brand looks the same on a billboard, an Instagram story, and a proposal PDF.
Business development
CRM setup, proposal automation, invoicing, and back-end operations. The Casita ADU rebuild is the clearest example.
Website builds
From $1,500 upfront, plus $275 a month for management, IT, and maintenance.
The quote scales with the size and complexity of the build. A refresh sits at the entry point, and a full custom platform with payments, dashboards, and AI costs more. You get a flat number before we start.
Where you're starting from
From scratch
A new site designed from a blank page around your brand, goals, and voice.

Refresh
We sharpen the design, speed, and copy without starting over.
What you get

A hand-coded, CDN-deployed front end, mobile and search readiness from day one, contact forms wired to your inbox, and ongoing updates, monitoring, and support.
$275 a month covers
Content edits and site updates, uptime, speed, and security monitoring, priority IT support, and a monthly check-in on what to improve next.
Available on request
Motion design, portfolio galleries with lightboxes and video reels, lead-routing quizzes, Stripe checkout for deposits, bookings, and subscriptions, Claude chat that answers questions and qualifies leads, and a private dashboard for clients, content, and campaigns.

How we rebuilt Casita ADU from the back end up
Casita came to us for marketing, and we ended up rebuilding how the company runs.
The ADU builds were good, but invoicing was manual and inconsistent, proposals took days, and cash flow was unpredictable. Marketing wasn't converting because the operations behind it couldn't keep up.
“SoCal Media didn't just help us market. They rebuilt how we operate. The back-end systems they put in place changed the entire trajectory of the business.”
