Kick-a** creative. Smart-a** strategy. No agency BS.
I'm Nick Drake — a Wichita-based designer who builds websites and marketing materials that actually look cool, without the agency markups or the five-week discovery phase. I work directly with business owners to get things done.
What I do is simple: I take your business and I make it look like it belongs at the top of its market. From full e-commerce builds to a single killer business card, the work is intentional, strategic, and — yes — cool.
"Stop letting your competition look better online than you do."
Over the past decade I've worked with commercial real estate brokerages, luxury resorts, ranch investment platforms, healthcare networks, auto body shops, hair salons, and everyone in between. What they all had in common: they needed to look as good as they actually are.
My clients get direct access to me — not an account manager, not a junior designer assigned after the sale. If you hire me, you get me. That's the deal.

I help companies punch above their weight class without the outrageously high prices.
I'm a Wichita-based designer who creates websites and marketing materials that actually look cool — without the agency BS. From solo entrepreneurs to growing businesses, I help scrappy companies compete with the big players.
Custom websites that look killer and actually convert visitors into paying customers. Mobile-friendly, fast-loading, and built to rank on Google. Webflow & WordPress. Static sites to complex CMS builds.
Brand identities that make you instantly recognizable and professionally credible. Logo design, color schemes, and brand guidelines that don't suck.
Business cards people hold onto, presentations that don't put audiences to sleep, and marketing materials that actually work.
Photo enhancement, product image visualization, and AI-generated content that makes you look like you hired a full creative team.
Scroll-stopping graphics, ad sets, and carousel designs that look like a brand, not a template.
PowerPoint & Google Slides decks that executive teams are proud to show. Template systems built for non-designers.
On-location product photography, interior shoots, and event coverage. Real images that tell your brand story.
