Founder of Chanyl Media, based in Austin, Texas.
I'm 18 and I'm from Austin, Texas. I got into web design and marketing young, and the more small businesses I looked at, the more I noticed the same pattern: good businesses, run by people who actually know what they're doing, losing customers to a slow website, a social page that hadn't been touched in months, or a phone that just rang out after hours.
That gap is what Chanyl Media is built to close. The name comes from the idea of a channel, a direct, clear path for growth, not a maze of subcontractors and account managers. Your channel for growth is the whole idea behind this business.
I'll be straightforward about it. I'm younger than most people running a marketing business, and I know that's the first thing some people notice. What I'd ask you to judge me on instead is the work: the sites I build, the campaigns I run, and how I show up when you call. I grew up online in a way a lot of older agencies didn't, and I bring that directly into how I build for you, especially anything involving social platforms, content, and AI tools like the receptionist.
I also don't have layers between me and the client. When you sign on with Chanyl Media, I'm the one on the strategy call, I'm the one building your site, and I'm the one you're texting if something needs to change. There's no account manager translating your request to a design team you'll never talk to.
I take on a limited number of clients at a time so I can actually give each one the attention it needs. I'd rather do great work for fewer businesses than spread myself thin across dozens of accounts. If that means I tell you honestly that now isn't the right time to start, I will.
I'm based in Austin, but I work with business owners everywhere. Most of my communication happens over call, text, and email, so location has never really been the limiting factor, results are.
If something isn't going to work for your business, I'll say so, even if it means turning down the work.
I build things I'd be proud to put my own name on, because I am putting my own name on it.
You'll never wonder where your project stands. I'd rather over-communicate than leave you guessing.
