Twenty-some years ago, there was no social media to market on.

There was no Instagram algorithm to crack, no Google Business Profile to optimize, no influencer playbook to follow. If you wanted to grow a business online, you figured it out from first principles.

That’s where Scott Herring started…and that foundation is still what separates Twisted Puppy from agencies that only know the tools, not the thinking behind them.

Twisted Puppy launched circa 2008 as an LA-based web and marketing shop. In 2018, Scott stepped away to go in-house with a client (a compliment, in a way) and the agency went quiet. Now it’s back, sharper, and more focused than ever on what it was always best at: building marketing that actually moves the needle for small businesses and startups in Los Angeles.

What we do differently.

Most agencies lead with deliverables. We lead with strategy.

Before we open a design file or write a line of code, we want to understand your business — how you acquire customers, where you’re losing them, what success actually looks like for you. The website, the SEO, the content, the email sequences — all of it flows from that conversation.

It’s why one client grew from $35K to $350K in monthly revenue in 18 months. Not because we built them something pretty. Because we built them something that worked.

Based in Los Angeles South Bay.

We’re local in the ways that matter: same time zone, same market, real people you can actually reach. We primarily serve businesses across the broader LA area and Westside, from professional services firms and health & wellness brands to startups building their first real marketing foundation.

Not the right fit for everyone.

We’re not the cheapest option in LA. We’re the one that gets you results.

If you’ve been burned by an agency that delivered a site and disappeared, or you’re tired of paying for activity instead of outcomes, let’s talk.
