Creative digital marketing solutions, built on real results
Innovating Trends is a Pittsburgh agency that combines web design and digital marketing. We keep up with a constantly changing digital world, so you do not have to.
Our story
Innovating Trends began with one person who knew there was a better way to do marketing.
Born out of necessity
Ryan Gartrell was wearing many hats at a small company, including managing its outside marketing firm. With a background in computer science, he saw how much more could be done.
Results above national competitors
Once he took marketing in-house, the company's digital presence rose far above national competitors. To test whether it was luck, he tried the same approach on friends' small businesses, with equally strong results.
A partnership and an LLC
Jamie Calabria joined Ryan to form Innovating Trends LLC, bringing experience in accounting, graphic design and sales.
Clients across the country
Our client list has grown from small local businesses to companies with national reach, from Pittsburgh to every corner of the US.
