dive into solutions

Your dive center deserves a website that works as hard as you do.

Most dive center websites look fine. But they're quietly losing bookings.
That's what we fix.

Most dive shops are losing bookings they don't even know about. I help them find where, fix it, and make sure it stays fixed.

She asks great questions, iterates quickly, and came up with ideas we were proud of. We would hire her again without hesitation.

Getting them through the door

The part of your business that lives or dies on your website.

Inquiries that are already halfway there

People land on your site, read it, understand what you offer and what it costs, and reach out ready to commit. Not still wondering if scuba diving is even something they want to try.

Fewer people dropping off at the last step

Someone decided to book. Then the process got confusing, the button was buried, or the form asked for too much. They closed the tab and you never heard from them. We look at where that's happening and sort it out.

Keeping them in the water

Where most of the revenue is. And where most shops go quiet.

Open Water grads who come back for more

Most certified divers don't stop diving because they lost interest. They just never heard from you again. Advanced, Rescue, specialties, there's a natural next step for almost every diver. They just need someone to point it out at the right moment.

Trips that actually fill up

A dive trip is one of the better things your shop can offer. It takes a group of people who booked separately and turns them into people who actually dive together. But it only works if they hear about it early enough and trust you enough to say yes.

Gear that sells because the trust is already there

Nobody buys a regulator from a shop they don't know well. Divers who have trained with you and heard from you over time are already close to a purchase.

Something on the calendar when the season slows

Your regulars are the ones who fill the quiet months. If they're hearing from you through the off-season, you're not starting from scratch every November. If they're not, you probably are.

about

In 2012 I traded design work for a dive certification. Only problem was I was terrified of water.

I grew up a mere five minutes from the Pacific Ocean and never once went in. It took two more years after that deal to actually put on a wetsuit. But once I did, I couldn't stop. What started as a dare turned into a decade of chasing descents, travelling solo on questionable buses and boats, and earning certifications all the way up to Assistant Instructor.

Somewhere along the way I started noticing the gap between what this sport actually feels like and how most dive shops present it online. Generic stock photos. Cluttered course lists. Booking flows that make you want to give up and walk in instead.

That's what Below the Fold Studio is about. I know this industry from the water up, and I know what it takes to make a website that does the diving justice and actually brings people through the door.

Our growth had plateaued, and we needed a fresh direction. Their team reworked our funnel and messaging, leading to a noticeable increase in qualified leads and overall revenue. The results exceeded our expectations.

Book a call

We get on a call, you tell me what's going on, I ask a few questions about how bookings are coming in and what isn't working. By the end we both have a sense of whether this is the right fit. If it is, we talk about next steps. If it isn't, you've still got a clearer picture of where to focus. No pitch. No pressure.
