A digital presence that matches your craft
The Central Texas tattoo market is competitive — but there's a clear pattern among the shops that dominate: strong digital presence, professional branding, and systems that make booking easy.
Lions Den has the talent. This proposal is about building the digital infrastructure to match — a site that showcases your work, makes booking seamless, and positions you as the go-to studio in your market.
I did a deep dive into what's working for top shops across New Braunfels, San Antonio, and Austin. Here's what separates the winners:
The credibility threshold. Top shops like Twisted Tattoo (49K) and Rock of Ages (40K) leverage social proof heavily.
Hyper Inkers has 3,000+ reviews with a 5.0 rating. Reviews compound trust faster than any ad spend.
All Saints and Hyper Inkers stay open until midnight or later. Night owls and the bar crowd are profitable.
Dandyland has won "Best Tattoo Shop" 14 times. Awards stack credibility and make marketing easy.
The shops winning aren't just good at tattooing — they're good at being found. Professional websites, online booking, transparent pricing, and consistent social presence. That's the playbook.
I searched "tattoo shops Seguin TX" — here's what comes up:
Quote requests, appointment scheduling, deposit collection — all automated. No phone tag.
Individual artist pages with specialties, styles, and work samples. Clients pick the artist, not just the shop.
Minimums and hourly rates listed clearly. Removes friction, sets expectations, filters tire-kickers.
Complete profiles, regular posts, review responses. This is how people find you when they search "tattoo near me."
Origin stories, unique positioning ("women-owned," "14x award winner," "APP certified"). What's your "only"?
