Billings studio offering local SEO, WordPress websites, ads and physical signage since 1998
About Zee Creative
Zee Creative is a design, web and marketing studio at 1105 4th Avenue North in Billings, Montana. Mike Marshall has run it as president and CEO since November 1998. Before that he worked in sign production and graphic design in Bozeman, as art director of specialty publications at the Billings Gazette and as production manager at Permaletter Sign Co. In August 2018 Zee Creative, Inc. bought Permaletter, which now trades as Zee Creative Signs.
That background explains an unusual mix of services. The firm handles SEO, local SEO and listings management, WordPress design and development, pay-per-click and paid social, email marketing, content, logo and brand work, print and physical signage, all in-house. Each design is made from scratch for the client rather than resold from a template. The team has one to ten people.
There is no dental page on their site. Their industries are business services, e-commerce, food and beverage, industrial, non-profit, real estate and retail, and the closest health-related client is St. John's United, a Billings provider of senior living, assisted living and transitional care. For a dental office the relevant pieces are listings and citation cleanup, search visibility for Billings and nearby towns, a WordPress site the practice can keep for years, and exterior and interior signs made by the same company that builds the website.
Named clients include Billings Parks and Recreation, Downtown Billings Alliance, Western Native Voice, Carverss Brazilian Steakhouse and St. John's United. Recent work includes a new site for Prairie Mountain Properties, a modern rebuild for the Billings Area Family Violence Task Force, and a project that paired a website with signage for a new building, installed in a single day.
Feedback is consistent across platforms. Google reviewers rate them 4.8 from more than 100 reviews, Facebook shows 5.0 from 36, and UpCity carries one 5.0 review from 2019. Comments mention being easy to reach by phone, patience through several rounds of revisions, close attention to detail and sites that are simpler to navigate after a rebuild.
Costs sit at the lower end. The minimum project is under USD 1,000 and the minimum retainer is under USD 500 a month. Contract length and reporting cadence are not published. The best fit is an independent practice in Billings or elsewhere in Montana that wants one local supplier for website, search listings, print and signs, rather than a specialist dental SEO programme with detailed patient-acquisition tracking.
