About

A studio that measures what it makes.

Stinger Studios is a data-driven digital agency in Mebane, North Carolina, serving clients nationwide since 2019. We build custom websites, run the advertising, and prove both are working.

The founder

Stinger Studios was founded in 2019 by Meredith Ragsdale, who holds an MA in Advertising and Branding from the University of Texas and spent years client-side at eBay, PayPal, and Booking.com.

That inside view is where the studio came from. Years watching how global brands actually buy, measure, and get let down by marketing shaped how Stinger Studios works today: fix what most agencies get wrong, from the client side of the table.

You are not handed off to a junior account manager after the pitch. The person who builds the site is the person who runs the ads and reads the analytics. When a project needs more hands, the studio brings in specialist designers, developers, and data people it has worked with before.

How we think

Most agencies sell you a deliverable and hand you a report once a month. We work in the open: measure what you have, build against the data, and prove the result in plain language.

We take nothing on face value. Copy, design, channels, budgets: it all gets tested, so you are never spending on a hunch. That is how we help you find your honey pot.

We build custom, with no page-builder bloat, because fast and maintainable beats flashy and fragile. And we only recommend work that pays for itself. If a project will not earn its keep, we will tell you.

We give a share of our time to family businesses and causes we believe in — pairing clients with nonprofits where the fit is real, or building the sites outright for the ones we back on our own.
