What Energyhill does

Energyhill is a privately held creative marketing and design agency headquartered in Tampa Bay, Florida (Land O Lakes mailing address), founded in 2013 by Gloria Lowe (Founder & Creative Lead, now Chief Wellness Officer) and Dr. Ryan Lowe (Co-founder & President). The firm operates with a small core team of approximately 8-10 employees providing integrated services across branding, web design, app design, digital marketing, and custom learning management system (LMS) development. The company serves clients across 18+ industries with notable depth in private education, including private/military schools, colleges, and universities, alongside engagements in financial services, healthcare, construction/safety, and consumer products. Energyhill distributes services through direct sales via a multi-step website inquiry form ("Discuss a Project") and scheduled consultations, with project budgets ranging from $1K to $250K+ on a quote-based, custom-priced professional services model.

The agency's underlying technology stack consists of HubSpot CRM (as a Certified HubSpot Partner), WordPress CMS for web development, and Adobe Creative Suite for design, augmented by CallRail for call tracking and standard paid media platforms (Google, Bing, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn). Separately from agency services, co-founder Dr. Ryan Lowe launched TuitionEP in 2018—a fintech mobile app and admin dashboard enabling schools to process tuition payments, manage enrollments, and handle donations, with a Version 2.0 release in 2021. The company is entirely founder-owned with no external institutional investment, has accumulated 25 industry awards since 2020 across seven major award programs, and operates a content marketing footprint including a 50+ article blog, podcast, and YouTube presence to drive organic inbound demand.

Product overview

Energyhill is a creative marketing agency in Tampa Bay offering a portfolio of services including branding, web design, app design, marketing, and LMS development.

Their primary offerings are professional services: branding (identity, strategy, logos, print collateral), web design (custom responsive websites, SEO), app design (iOS/Android mobile apps), marketing (social media, SEO, HubSpot, email), and LMS development. Additionally, they have developed their own product, TuitionEP — a fintech mobile app and dashboard for schools to manage tuition payments, enrollments, and donations.
