Hi, I’m Marlana Glaeser — Creative Director and CEO of The Glaeser Group, WiX Marketplace Legend Partner, and Co-Founder of The Creative Collective, a nonprofit focused on supporting creatives, small businesses, and aspiring artists across the country.
I did not build this business from a boardroom. I built it from long nights, real conversations, problem-solving, and a deep understanding that most small business owners are carrying far more than what is visible online. Several of the individuals I work with are balancing families, financial pressure, burnout, reinvention, or the weight of trying to keep a dream alive while also keeping the lights on. I understand that because I have lived it too.
My work goes far beyond building websites. I help businesses and brands slow down long enough to ask better questions:
Who are you really trying to reach?
What are you actually trying to say?
Does your online presence reflect the quality of your work?
What is preventing your audience from trusting you?
I work heavily in branding, strategy, SEO foundations, user behavior, website redesigns, and helping businesses create an online presence that feels human first. Clean visuals matter, but connection matters more. A beautiful website that does not convert, communicate clearly, or create trust is simply decoration.
Over the years, I have worked with nonprofits, performing arts organizations, creatives, speakers, trades businesses, entrepreneurs, and companies rebuilding from the ground up. Some clients come to me needing a full redesign. Others simply need clarity, direction, and someone willing to tell them the truth about what is and is not working.
The Glaeser Group has grown largely through referrals and relationships, which means the world to me. I work intentionally, communicate honestly, and care deeply about the humans behind the business.
If you are looking for someone who will simply “build a website,” I may not be the right fit.
If you are looking for someone who will sit in the trenches with you, think strategically, move quickly, and genuinely care about where your business is headed, I would be honored to connect....
