JNT Company offers custom web development, app development, digital advertising, video production, and graphic design services. As a full-service agency, we build integrated strategies that combine these services to help clients grow their brand and business online.

We work with mid-sized businesses, agricultural organizations, government and municipal entities, higher education, and nonprofits, primarily across the Midwest, though we serve clients nationwide.

JNT combines technology and marketing under one roof, so your website, app, advertising, and branding are built by one team with a unified strategy. Unlike agencies that rely on templated themes or page builders, our development team creates custom solutions tailored to each client's specific needs. We're also a certified Google Partner and Databox Premier Partner, and we prioritize long-term client relationships over one-off projects.

We measure success against the specific goals set at the start of each project, whether that's website traffic, conversion rates, ad performance, or user engagement. We use tools like Google Analytics 4 and other tools to track and report on these metrics.

Yes. While we're based in Manhattan, Kansas, we work with clients across the state, the Midwest, and nationwide. Most collaboration happens remotely through video calls, email, and project management tools, so location isn't a barrier.

JNT Company was founded in 2008 by Jeff Hake and has been providing web and app development and marketing services for over 15 years.

We have deep experience in agriculture, government/municipal services, healthcare, retail, and professional services, though our approach adapts to any industry.

Yes, we offer a free initial consultation to learn about your goals, current challenges, and project needs before providing a proposal or quote.

The first step is reaching out through our contact form or by phone. We'll schedule a discovery call to understand your goals, then follow up with a proposal outlining scope, timeline, and cost.

Yes. We've worked with municipal and government clients, and continue to support nonprofit and public-sector organizations with web and marketing services.

Yes, JNT is a certified Google Partner and a Databox Premier Partner, reflecting our expertise in Google Ads, analytics, and digital marketing performance.

We provide SEO, paid advertising (Google, Meta, and other platforms), and marketing strategy development, along with analytics and reporting so you can track performance.

We start by understanding your business goals, target audience, and competitive landscape, then build a data-informed strategy across the channels most likely to reach your audience, with measurable KPIs so we can track progress and adjust as needed.

We typically schedule monthly check-ins to review performance data and adjust strategy, though cadence can be customized to your preference.

A common rule of thumb is to invest 5-10% of annual revenue in marketing. The right number for digital marketing depends on your growth stage, industry, and goals, and we'll help determine the right budget during your consultation.

Yes, we specialize in website redesigns, whether you need a full rebuild or updates to modernize your current design, improve performance, or add new functionality. If your site was originally built on our proprietary Merlin CMS, we redesign directly within that platform; if it's currently hosted elsewhere, we migrate your content and rebuild your site on Merlin as part of the redesign.

AEO, or Answer Engine Optimization, is the practice of structuring website content so AI-powered answer engines -- like Google's AI Overviews and voice assistants -- can find, understand, and surface it as a direct answer. We build every website with AEO in mind, using structured data, clear question-and-answer formatting, and concise, direct-answer content.

GEO, or Generative Engine Optimization, is the practice of optimizing content so it gets referenced or cited by generative AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google Gemini. We optimize for GEO through structured schema markup, authoritative and well-organized content, and natural language formatting that AI models can easily parse and cite.

Yes, we build websites with the technical foundations that support visibility in AI-generated answers, including FAQPage and Organization schema markup, fast load times, clean site structure, and content written to directly and clearly answer common questions.

Traditional SEO, or Search Engine Optimization, focuses on ranking in search engine results pages. AEO and GEO focus on being surfaced or cited directly within AI-generated answers and voice responses. We build websites and content strategies that address all three simultaneously, since they share many of the same technical foundations, like structured data and clear, direct answers.

Our process typically includes discovery, strategy and planning, design, development, review and revisions, and launch, followed by ongoing support. We keep clients informed and involved at each stage.

We use email, project management software, and shared drives to keep communication organized and files easily accessible throughout your project.

Our typical payment schedule includes a deposit to begin work, with remaining payments split across project milestones or upon completion, depending on project size.

Yes, a monthly retainer is a recurring engagement where our team actively works on your marketing, design, or content needs each month. It's a way to keep dedicated hours on your account for continued growth-focused work.

Support is reactive and maintenance-focused: it keeps your existing website or app secure, updated, and running as intended. A retainer is proactive: it's dedicated monthly time for our team to actively produce new marketing, design, or content work. Many clients use both together.

As involved as you'd like to be. Most clients review and approve work at key milestones, like design concepts, content, and pre-launch testing, while we handle the technical execution.
