Site setup
Design and launch. Custom builds for companies and individuals — not a template dumped on a free host.
Our Company
Programmers and designers in the United States. The company started as a web shop and grew because clients kept asking for the next thing.
About the owner
I believe with the right tools, the right team and the right attitude one can achieve anything.
The core of the work ethic here is a job well done. A truly successful professional has a burning desire for excellence — and wears as many hats as the work requires.
Melinda began cold calling for the Anthony Robbins Campaign at 16. She learned the beauty and the investment lessons of fine art while running an art gallery. By 26 she founded Showcase Studios, a web, branding, and development company.
She created Showcase Studios in May 1997. In its first three years the company became a Top 25 Web Development Company in the Puget Sound Business Journal three years in a row. The company began as Showcase Web Design and grew as clients and technology demanded more — first selling vehicles for clients on eBay years before eBay Motors, then expanding into branding, custom software, interactive hardware, video, and campaigns.
She has a passion for the creative and focuses on solutions beyond the ordinary for every client: online, emerging, and traditional brand and identity; websites; social media campaigns with focused precision and strategic planning; content; advertising; graphics; custom software; applications; and networks.
The market is the United States. We take clients from everywhere. If you are in Seattle, on the Key Peninsula, or anywhere in Western Washington, we can meet in person. If you are in any other state, we work the way we have since 1997: Zoom and telephone, same team, no offshore handoff.
The studio
Our goal is to satisfy a client’s needs through the marriage of creativity and research. That line is Melinda’s. It is how the company lasted from the early web through gallery floors, car lots, clinics, magazines, and bigger accounts without turning into a template mill.
Showcase Studios was one of the original companies that first sold new vehicles for clients on eBay — years before eBay Motors. We were among the first to use touch and information together in a world-class kiosk and plasma visual interactive system for retail art galleries. We were among the first developers to create online commercials, and we have built educational and other custom software through the years.
The programmers and designers are here. The work is still decided by people who have been in the room with the client.
What we offer now
That is the current menu. Older project types are in the portfolio if you want to see how the studio spent the last three decades.
Design and launch. Custom builds for companies and individuals — not a template dumped on a free host.
USA infrastructure, billed by Showcase. Isolated client accounts. You stay with us after launch.
Updates, backups, security, and small changes so the live site does not age in public.
Technical and content search work attached to the property we built — listings, structure, and pages that can be found.
