About Robin
We built the business before we built the studio.
Robin is run by the operator who took Spruce from zero to over a million dollars a year, on zero ad spend, and built every system behind it. Most studios have never run the kind of business they pitch to. That is the whole difference.
Why us
An operator's studio, not an agency.
Most agencies have never run the business they pitch to. They have never sent a crew to a job, watched a booking system buckle on the busiest day of the month, or fixed it at eleven at night with payday on the line. We have. Spruce started with one cleaner and a spreadsheet. It became a business doing over a million a year, ranked number one on Google for its core services, cited in Google's AI Overviews, and run end to end on software we designed ourselves.
Online booking, a field quality-assurance app, staff training, governed documents across Power Apps, SharePoint and Entra. When we build your site, your search strategy, or your automation, we are building the thing we have already run for real. We know what actually moves a small business, because we moved one.
Robin is deliberately small, and that is the point. You work directly with the person who built all of the above, not an account manager three steps removed from the work.
Built in Auckland, for New Zealand challengers.
What we can build
The whole stack, under one roof.
Most studios stop at the website. We build everything that makes a small business punch above its size, including the software the giants pay teams to maintain.
