About

Founder-led web design, built on real business experience.

Custom websites, aimed at the customers you want, built by someone who has run businesses and knows what a lead is worth.

Chad Nixon, founder of Set & Seen Studio

Hi, I'm Chad Nixon.

I've spent more than a decade building and running businesses. I lead a real estate team and have overseen thousands of transactions, and I'm a founder of a nationwide health and wellness company, where I built the brand, the website and the online presence from the ground up.

That's the difference with Set & Seen: I'm not a designer guessing what a business needs. I've been the owner watching which marketing actually works and which just costs money. A website is a tool, and what a business does with it matters as much as how it's built. So I build every site to give you the strongest possible foundation and a brand people recognize, then help with the strategy around it: local search, content, reviews and how you show up in AI answers.

Outside of work, you'll find me in Colorado's mountains, camping and traveling, or spending time with family, friends and my dogs. I'm also involved with several local nonprofits.

I founded Set & Seen Studio in Greeley, Colorado.

I started Set & Seen Studio because owners kept asking me the same question: why can't people find us online? The answer has changed. It's still Google, and now it's AI assistants too. I build sites for both, and I aim them at the market you actually serve.

When you work with Set & Seen, you work with me. No hand-offs, no jargon, no long contracts. I work by video call and email with businesses across the US.

Our name, our philosophy

Set to stand out. Built to be seen.

A great online presence starts with a strong foundation and grows through meaningful visibility.

Set
Building it right. Thoughtfully designed, custom-built websites that reflect each business and are made to last.
Seen
Getting discovered. We combine traditional SEO with Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) to help businesses show up where customers are searching, from Google to AI-powered platforms.
Studio
A boutique approach. Personal attention, intentional design and solutions built around each client, never a generic template.

The name also carries a quiet nod to my family motto, Toujours Prêt, “Always Ready,” a reminder that being prepared creates opportunity.

First, get set. Then, get seen.
