About Social Agencies
Two directors, one team, and every project live for you to check.
Social Agencies is a digital agency based in Portland, Oregon, founded by directors James Hoare and Jared. A team of young, keen developers, designers and marketers builds websites, custom business software and lead generation for businesses across the United States as one joined system. Every project we show is live, so you can judge the work first.
What we believe
How Social Agencies works
-
One team
The website, the software and the ads come from one team, so every part is built to work with the others and nothing gets lost between vendors.
-
You own everything
Domains, hosting, code, data and ad accounts sit in your name from day one. If we ever part ways, the business keeps all of it.
-
Show the work
Every project Social Agencies shows is live and linked. You can open it, use it and judge it before you ever pick up the phone.
-
Honest reporting
Plain numbers on what was spent, what came in and what it cost. No promised results, and no page of figures that means nothing to you.
Our story
How did Social Agencies start?
Social Agencies was founded in 2026 by James Hoare and Jared. James leads the build: the websites, the software and the systems behind them. Jared leads the client side and the growth of the business.
The work grew from websites into the systems behind them. Dart Motors now runs its website, self-updating inventory feed, lead inbox, finance software and ads from Social Agencies, and BlitzBooks, our own quoting and invoicing app for trades, is live and in daily use.

This young dynamic company has really impressed me with my requirements on a complete website design/development. Highly recommended.
