Right the first time.
Competitors skip steps 2 and 4. That's why their clients rebuild in two years.
Intake & Strategy
A 45-minute call to understand your business, your customers, and what winning looks like. We leave with a defined scope, target phrases, and the entity facts that will anchor every page.
Schema & Tracking — First
Before a line of visible code is written, we configure GA4, GTM, and the schema stack. Competitors skip this step. We don't — which is why you're not rebuilding in two years.
Design & Build
Custom Next.js build, mobile-first, accessibility built in. Every section is a component; every component is a performance decision. No templates, no theme-shop shortcuts.
Launch & Index
Pre-launch SEO audit, GSC and Bing Webmaster submission, IndexNow ping on deploy. We don't call it done until the search engines know it's live.
Grow
Monthly reporting, content that feeds the entity, and the data to know what's working. The site is an asset — we treat it like one.
05 / Why Saltwater
What a template can't fake.
Schema & entity, from the first commit
Structured data goes in on day one and is validated before launch — never bolted on after. It’s the same build behind BashSnippets, a property the studio owns and runs, engineered so AI tools can quote it instead of skipping it. Your site tells Google and the assistants exactly what you do, for whom, and where.
You own everything
Domain, hosting, analytics, every account — in your name, under your email, with your billing. The studio does the work and hands you the keys: no agency login, no hostage situation.
One canonical fact set
Your name, location, services, and entity facts read the same on the site, in schema, in llms.txt, and on every profile — the consistency AI search rewards. It’s the entity work that let Kai’s Run claim a service category that didn’t exist in search yet.
No template you’ll outgrow
Custom Next.js, not a page-builder you’ll fight in eighteen months. It’s how Beach House Moving got a service-area page for every county it works — depth a template can’t fake, because the template never adds the schema or the local pages in the first place.
06 / The Studio
Travis, founder.
Saltwater Studio is a remote AI agency founded in 2025 by Travis Abadie in Destin, Florida, building AI automation and AI-search presence for local businesses nationwide.
The method is the same one I use on my own businesses: map the process before automating it, build the thing that fits, then document it well enough to hand over. Nothing gets bolted onto a workflow nobody looked at first.
Remote, nationwide, out of Destin. Every engagement is personal — no account managers, no handoffs.
Depth, by design.
