Services · Virtual Advertising Agency
The dev shop your ad agency actually needs.
Ad agencies win work that requires technical builds — landing pages, campaign tools, interactive experiences, custom web applications — and then need a development partner who can actually deliver. ShipyardLA is a technical build partner for advertising and marketing agencies: production-grade custom software, delivered on schedule, billed transparently. You keep the client relationship. I build the thing.
White-label technical execution. Fixed scope, fixed price, built to your campaign date.
Who this is for
Agencies and marketing firms that need a reliable technical build partner.
- Ad agencies that win campaigns requiring custom web builds but don't have in-house engineering
- Marketing firms whose clients need landing pages, campaign tools, or interactive experiences beyond what templates can deliver
- Creative agencies that have been burned by freelancers who miss deadlines and disappear during client review
- PR and communications firms that need web tools built quickly and correctly for client campaigns with hard launch dates
- Boutique agencies looking to offer technical services without the overhead of a full engineering team
What I build
Production-grade builds for agency clients — nothing template-based, nothing rushed.
Custom campaign landing pages
Fast, conversion-optimized landing pages built from design files — not assembled from a page builder. Custom animations, form integrations, analytics events, A/B test infrastructure. Built to your campaign date when design files and approvals are in place.
Interactive campaign tools
Quizzes, calculators, configurators, and interactive experiences that require custom code. When the client's brief specifies something that needs to be purpose-built, not assembled from a template, this is where I come in.
Web application builds
Full custom web applications for agency clients who need more than a marketing site. Rails or Elixir backend, PostgreSQL, modern frontend. Built to the spec your client signed off on — not a scope-creep conversation in month three.
Technical integrations
CRM integrations, marketing automation connections, analytics pipeline setup, third-party API work. When the client's existing systems need to connect to whatever you're building, I handle the technical plumbing.
How this is different
ShipyardLA operates like a technical partner: fixed-scope agreements, transparent billing, and production-grade output your agency can put its name on. Scope and price are locked before work begins. Status updates are timed to your client communication cadence. White-label available. Fixed scope, fixed price, built to your campaign date when design files and approvals are in place.
How it works
Fixed scope. Fixed price. Clear ship date.
- 01
Technical scoping
Send me the brief or design files. I scope the build, give you a fixed price and timeline, and flag anything technically unclear before you confirm with the client.
- 02
Build sprint
I build to spec, with regular status updates timed to your client communication cadence. You stay in control of the client relationship.
- 03
Delivery and support
Delivered to your staging environment or handed off directly. Post-launch support available. No dependency on me to keep the client's site running.
