Our Story

Hi, I’m Caresa, the founder of HopeSpring Digital.

For over seven years, I’ve been designing and optimizing websites for small businesses across the U.S. — more than 200 launches and counting.

Before starting HopeSpring, I was a Website Manager at a digital marketing agency, where I helped build their internal SEO handbook and managed a portfolio of 100+ websites. 

But I wanted to do more than help companies grow, I wanted to help communities grow too.

So I started HopeSpring Digital: a studio rooted in Minnesota values, transparency, and giving back.

It’s my way to help small business owners feel confident online, while reinvesting in the places we call home.

When you work with HopeSpring, you’re not just getting a website — you’re gaining a partner who cares about your growth, your peace of mind, and your impact.

Our Mission

We make digital growth feel good, do good, and actually work.
