Why choose Mountain Thirteen?
The way you do business has changed. You need a creative partner that thinks different.
The Agency Model is dead
Let's be real: The traditional agency model—with its bloated project quotes, slow turnaround times, and zero accountability post-launch—is built for their bottom line, not yours. It treats your digital presence like a one-off campaign instead of the continuous growth engine it should be. The result? You get stuck with static assets, inconsistent branding, and crippling complexity that kills momentum. We built Mountain Thirteen because that outdated system is simply not sustainable for businesses built for growth.
SO, WHAT'S THE MODERN SOLUTION?
We've flipped the script with our design subscription model. We empower small to mid-sized businesses to dominate their digital world by giving them a dedicated team. This means you get everything you need—from a standout logo and brand identity to a high-converting website and engaging social media—without the traditional agency headaches.
ALL FOR A FRACTION OF THE COST OF HIRING IN-HOUSE.
Your full-time creative department, without the full-time payroll.
"Lyndon and Mountain Thirteen are the best! Lyndon excels at communicating, making sure our project got to the finish line on time for a price that was more than reasonable. We are now starting our third project with them and can't wait to see how it turns out! Thanks, Lyndon!"
Katie Garcia, Marketing Director at TaxSolve Inc.

Three pillars
we live by
We don't just "do the work"—we set the standard. Our entire philosophy is built on three non-negotiable pillars that fuel results and drive authentic partnership. This is how we operate.
1. Transparency is the Only Policy (T.O.P.)
No gatekeeping, no hidden fees. We keep the pricing structure clear and the process open. You see the workflow, you get the value, and you know exactly what you’re paying for. It’s a no-fluff, no-drama partnership built on mutual respect. We keep it 100.
2. Expertise on Tap, Always Leveling Up
We’re not generalists; we’re specialists committed to staying ahead of the curve. Our strategic process isn’t based on guesswork, it’s based on years of high-performance digital experience and an insane attention to detail. We bring the receipts. Your success is our continuous professional development.
3. Digital Assets That Actually Perform
The Main Character EnergyForget static websites that collect dust. We treat your digital presence as your best employee—a primary tool constantly working to acquire clients, process sales, and drive growth. We build the assets that work harder for your business. Your website isn’t a brochure; it’s a revenue engine.
