A Portland Digital Marketing Agency
Based in Gresham
We won't pretend we have a downtown high-rise. We have something more useful: two decades of results and the leaner overhead of an East-metro agency — passed on to you.
GET A FREE DIAGNOSISPlenty of Portland agencies will sell you a downtown address and bill you for it. Brainjar takes a different position: we're a Portland-metro agency headquartered in Gresham, serving businesses across the east and southeast side and throughout the region — with the strategy of a big firm and the overhead of one that isn't paying Pearl District rent.
“Portland digital marketing” is a crowded, competitive search, and we'll be straight with you: ranking for it takes longer than ranking in the suburbs. But the fundamentals are the same ones we've used since 2003 — and we've competed for national brands like Intel and NASCAR, so a metro market doesn't intimidate us.
If your customers are in Portland, we'll help you reach them — honestly, and without charging you for a skyline view you don't need.

SEE THE PORTFOLIOQuestions, Answered
Do you have a Portland office?
No — we're based in Gresham and serve the whole metro from there. We'll happily meet you in Portland or on a call; we just don't pass along the cost of a downtown lease you'd be helping to pay for.
Why hire a Gresham agency for a Portland business?
Same strategy, lower overhead. You get two decades of experience — including national brands — without the premium that comes with a downtown address, and a team that's part of the same metro you're in.
How long will it take to rank for Portland searches?
Longer than a suburb, honestly. Portland is competitive, so organic gains build over months rather than weeks. We'll set realistic expectations up front and often pair SEO with paid ads so you're getting traffic while the rankings mature.
Do you focus on any part of Portland in particular?
We have a natural strength on the east and southeast side, given where we're based — but we serve businesses across the entire metro.
