Personal leadership, collaborative expertise
SS Design Media is led by founder Steven Schneider and supported by experienced collaborators. We bring together the expertise each project needs for web design, local SEO and connected business systems.

Steven Schneider
Founder and lead web strategist
A studio built around how the work actually gets done
SS Design Media was founded in 2013 and is based in Statesville, North Carolina. Steven brings 15+ years of web design experience and leads the direction on every project: strategy, information architecture and the decisions that shape the build.
He works with experienced collaborators who contribute specialized expertise where a project needs it: advanced integrations, complex local SEO, copywriting and connected business systems. You get the focus of a small, accountable studio with the range of a larger one.
Steven sets the strategy and stays accountable for the outcome. The person you talk to is the person shaping the work.
Specialists join for the parts that need them, not staffed onto every project by default. You pay for expertise, not headcount.
The Savvy Sales System, with Jen Schneider
For CRM and business automation, SS Design Media works with Jen Schneider's Savvy Sales Strategist, which runs the Savvy Sales System behind our clients' lead management, booking and follow-up. The website handles discovery and trust; the system makes sure every inquiry reaches the right person and gets a response.
Savvy Sales Strategist is a partner business, not an SS Design Media department. We don't hide the underlying technology if a client asks.

How a project moves
From the first conversation through launch and the work that comes after. Transparent at every step, focused on what the business actually needs.
- Step 1
Discovery
We talk through the business goal, the current site, what's working, and where customers drop off. Just the questions that shape the work.
- Step 2
Architecture
We decide what pages the site needs, how services and locations are organized, and what the path to an inquiry looks like before anything gets designed.
- Step 3
Design and build
Custom design, a custom AI-built, drag-and-drop or WordPress build, local SEO markup, and connected forms. Built to be fast and maintainable, not just to look finished.
- Step 4
Launch and improve
Search verification, conversion tracking, and a clear handoff. Then we keep an eye on what's actually happening and improve what matters.
Let's talk about what you're trying to build.
Book a call with Steven, or send an inquiry with what you want to improve. Either way you're talking to the person who leads the work.
