About ScareKrow

In business since 2011. Still small on purpose.

We build the website, get it found and run the ads. When something breaks, you don’t have to work out whose fault it is. It’s ours.

Who we are

A small firm that stays on the job

ScareKrow took its first clients in 2011 and incorporated in California in January 2013. For more than ten years the work has come by referral. A client tells someone, and that someone gets in touch.

We stay small on purpose. At a big agency your site passes through a dozen hands, and the faces change every few months. Here the same people design the site, build it, run the ads and read the reports. Year after year.

And we don’t subcontract. If ScareKrow’s name is on the invoice, ScareKrow did the work.

The name fits. A scarecrow stays in the field and keeps watch.

Who leads the work

You deal with the people in charge

John Scalco and Jeff Weiss lead the work at ScareKrow.

You talk to them directly. There’s no account manager in between. Nobody hands you off once the project starts.

Who we work with

Treatment centers, clinics, online stores, campaigns and more

  • 01 · Behavioral health

    Addiction treatment

    Detox centers, residential programs and sober living homes. The advertising rules are strict, and the person searching is often a family member at the hardest moment of their year. Some of these clients have been with us more than five years.

  • 02 · Healthcare

    Medical and therapy practices

    Clinics and private practices, where the site has to explain a treatment in plain words and make the first appointment easy to ask for.

  • 03 · Ecommerce

    Online stores

    Night guards. Circuit breakers. Exit signs. The products have nothing in common, and the job is the same every time: get the right buyer to the right item.

  • 04 · New ventures

    Apps and startups

    A mobile app for motorcycle riders needed a site to launch on. We built it.

  • 05 · Campaigns

    Political campaigns

    A candidate for parish council in Louisiana needed a campaign site and someone to run the ads. We do both.

  • 06 · Yours

    Your industry

    Not on this list? Neither were any of these, once. We learn the business before we build anything: who buys, what they search for, which rules apply. Whatever you sell, we can build for it.

Your site is slow. Or the ads cost too much, or the store isn’t selling. Write us a few lines and one of us will write back.
