Spot Color Studio is a full-service creative agency that grew out of a basement. But it wasn’t a creepy basement. It had a computer, a chair, and a woman with a ton of creativity who was making her way through the bursting dot com bubble.
Nicole Weber started Spot Color Studio as a way to serve the marketing needs of various Portland businesses. She took her degree in Graphic Design and turned an amazing work ethic and commitment to customer service into a business that has grown every year for the past nine years.
Spot Color Studio provides marketing support for small to mid-sized businesses all over the country. We are the “doers,” the folks who turn your idea into something big…without the big agency fees. We keep things lean and honest, and pass the savings on to you.
We’ve assembled the right team highly-skilled designers, developers, and project managers to make sure you get the support you need. From industry-standard print processes to the latest proven online marketing strategies, we have the expertise to help you succeed.
We’ve come a long way since those early days in a basement. But some things haven’t changed: our expertise and commitment to your success.

Vince Rogers, CFO
Vince is our CFO and “go to guy”. He has the fun job of doing all the books, in addition to our general office requests…fixing computers, setting up phones, HR coordination, contract and policy writing…and mad dashes to market when we run out of coffee. Thanks Vince! When the office isn’t making requests, he can be found in his shop souping up his vintage scooters…those things aren’t really supposed to go 85 miles per hour, are they?
