Turn tourist spikes into repeat revenue; without the chaos

For St. Augustine’s owner‑operated boutiques, galleries, cafés, and studios, we turn seasonal foot traffic into year‑round growth with local visibility, email/SMS, and a few time‑saving automations.

Why Castillo & Coast exists

St. Augustine is a beautiful place to run a business, and a tough place to grow consistently. Peak seasons bring crowds; slow months bring quiet. Too often, marketing and operations are fragmented: a site that doesn’t convert, social that’s exhausting, no real email engine, and manual tasks that eat up your week.

We built Castillo & Coast to fix that; simply. Start with a free 30‑minute Growth Audit. We’ll pinpoint the two biggest gaps holding you back and send a short report with practical next steps you can implement yourself or hand off to us.

What we do

Pick one area or mix and match

  • Local Visibility: Google Business Profile + on‑site SEO pages + content that matches tourist intent → be the place people find before they arrive.

  • Social & Content: A realistic posting plan + reusable templates + content that matches how people actually shop → consistent without the grind.

  • Email & SMS: Newsletter + automated flows to bring customers back → repeat buyers without constant posting.

  • E‑com Tune‑Up: Shopify/Square friction fixes + cart recovery + tasteful upsells → more revenue from the same traffic.

  • Inventory & Ops: Stock alerts, POS integration, reorder dashboards, and “stop re‑typing the same thing” automations → hours back every month.

Who We’re Built For

We work best with owner‑operated businesses that care about craft and customer experience—and want a system that turns one‑time visitors into repeat buyers.

Good fits include:

  • Art galleries

  • High‑end boutiques

  • Specialty food/coffee

  • Experience studios (classes, bookings, maker spaces)

  • Local/neighborhood bars and restaurants

How We Work

  • Step 1: Growth Audit (free):

    30 minutes. You talk, we listen. We review what matters and send a short report with your top two priorities.

  • Step 2: Pick a Sprint (2–4 weeks):

    Choose the module(s) that move revenue or save time fastest: visibility, retention, e‑com fixes, operations, or something else.

  • Step 3: Build + Automate:

    We implement improvements in tight, practical increments, so you feel progress weekly; not “someday.”

  • Step 4: Measure What Matters:

    We track signals tied to real outcomes (leads, bookings, sales, repeat purchases, hours saved).
