Website, application, and software design —in Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, Chicago, Davenport, and Sioux City.
38thFloor Marketing is a Des Moines firm that designs and ships the systems companies run on: websites, applications, and software, with AI and automation wired in where it actually removes work.
The practice started in 2020. Since then 38thFloor has delivered digital product and growth work for more than two hundred organizations — startups, small businesses, mid-sized companies, non-profits, and government projects — including teams selling across the United States and internationally.

Most companies do not have a marketing problem. They have a system problem.
The site is a brochure. The app is half-built. The automation is a stack of logins nobody owns. So staff keep doing the software’s job by hand, and the last vendor already got paid.
38thFloor replaces that.
We design and ship the thing the business runs on — website, application, or software — and we install AI and automation where it deletes work. Not as a demo. As part of the build.
What we
specialize in
Four practices. One team.
Web design and development
Market-ready sites, launches, and conversion systems.
Application design
The tools staff, customers, and operators actually use.
Software design
Products and internal systems built around the business.
AI and automation
Workflows and integrations that take repeat work off the team. We install what will be used.
What the
work looks like
Client names stay private. The systems are described as delivered.
Distribution
A mid-market distributor was quoting out of spreadsheets and re-keying every order. We replaced the quoting and ordering path with one system and an account view for their customers. Re-entry stopped.
Public sector
A publicly funded program needed accessible intake and reporting its own staff could operate. We delivered a compliant interface, clean documentation, and a handover their internal team now runs without us.
Operations
An operations team was holding four disconnected tools together by hand. We built a single internal console and automated the reconciliation, removing more than fifteen hours of manual work each week.
Who we
work with
Startups
that need a real product surface.
Small businesses & mid-sized companies
whose digital systems have not caught up.
Non-profits
that need infrastructure that holds up in public.
Government projects
that need clean requirements, clean delivery, and something the team can operate after handover.
