La Conner
La Conner is a historic waterfront town on the Swinomish Channel in Skagit County, Washington, an arts-and-tourism destination with galleries, the Museum of Northwest Art, boutique retail and dining, a working waterfront, and a gateway to the Skagit Valley tulip fields. Its economy runs on tourism and hospitality, arts and galleries, boutique retail and dining, marine and waterfront trade, and the small businesses of a historic destination town. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms (custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing) for La Conner's tourism, arts, retail, and small-business operations, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania. Distance is no barrier, and we add on-site time when a project warrants the trip.

Usually eight to ten weeks to the first live workflow, then iterative improvements from there, and you own the code and the data outright, with no lock-in, hosted in an environment that fits your requirements.

Both, and much of our La Conner work is small and midsize: a gallery, an inn, or a boutique is exactly the kind of operation we right-size a platform for, without enterprise overhead, with on-site time when a project warrants it.
