Sagentic LLC is a family-owned marketing company headquartered in downtown Cañon City, Colorado. We are the parent company that owns and operates two complementary brands: Sagentic Web Design and DARE Print & Sign Co.

Together, these brands provide complete marketing solutions for small businesses, non-profits, and government organizations. Sagentic Web Design handles websites and digital marketing. DARE Print & Sign Co. handles printing, signage, and custom apparel. Having both under one roof means our clients get consistent branding across all their marketing materials.

The company was founded in 2003 by Kenny and Erica Haferkamp, both United States Marine Corps veterans. We moved our operations to Cañon City in 2019 and added DARE Print & Sign Co. in 2020 to better serve our community.

Sagentic LLC was founded by Kenny and Erica Haferkamp, a husband-and-wife team who both served in the United States Marine Corps. They started the company in 2003 with a passion for web design and helping small businesses succeed online.

Kenny serves as the Lead Developer and brings an MBA in Marketing and a Master's Degree in Coaching to his role. He oversees all web design and development projects. Erica serves as Creative Director and holds a BBA in Marketing. She leads the visual direction for both brands and is actively involved in the local business community as a Board Member of the Royal Gorge Chamber Alliance.

The company remains family-owned and operated today. Kenny and Erica work directly with clients rather than handing projects off to account managers. This personal approach has built lasting relationships with clients who have stayed with them for over twenty years.

Sagentic is a made-up word that combines "agentic" with our daughter Autumn Sage's name. When we founded the company in 2003, Sage was four years old. We wanted a name that sounded professional and tech-forward while honoring our family.

The word "agentic" relates to agency and taking action, which fit our mission of helping businesses take control of their online presence. Combined with Sage, it created a unique name that has served us well for over two decades.

Autumn Sage is now serving in the United States Air Force while studying marketing in college. After completing her military service, she plans to return to Cañon City and join the family business, continuing the legacy her name helped start.

DARE Print & Sign Co. is named after our daughter Jeorjia Dare. Just as Sagentic honors our daughter Sage, we wanted our print shop brand to carry our other daughter's name and continue the family naming tradition.

The name also works well for a print and sign company. It suggests boldness and confidence, qualities we want our clients' marketing materials to convey. DARE to stand out. DARE to be noticed. DARE to invest in quality.

Jeorjia Dare already works alongside us at DARE Print & Sign Co., making the name even more meaningful. Both of our daughters are part of the business, either now or in the future, which is exactly what we envisioned when we named both brands after them.

Yes, Sagentic LLC is a veteran-owned business. Both founders, Kenny and Erica Haferkamp, served in the United States Marine Corps before starting the company in 2003.

Our military background shapes how we run the business. We show up on time, deliver what we promise, and take responsibility for our work. The discipline and attention to detail we learned in the Marines carries through to every project we handle for our clients.

We are proud of our service and grateful for the skills it taught us. The military also instilled a commitment to serving others, which translates directly into our customer-focused approach. When clients trust us with their marketing, we take that responsibility seriously.

We moved to Cañon City, Colorado in May 2019 because we wanted to be part of a community, not just serve one from a distance. After running the business from Texas since 2003, we were ready for a change and fell in love with the Royal Gorge area.

Downtown Cañon City offered exactly what we were looking for: a Main Street location where we could meet clients face to face, be involved in local events, and contribute to the business community. Our storefront at 710 Main Street puts us in the heart of downtown.

The move also allowed us to expand our services. Seeing that the community needed a reliable print shop, we opened DARE Print & Sign Co. in January 2020. Now we can serve local businesses with both their digital and physical marketing needs from one convenient location.

Sagentic Web Design is our web design and development brand, operating since 2003. We specialize in fully managed websites for small businesses, non-profits, and government organizations who want a reliable long-term partner for their online presence.

Unlike agencies that build a website and disappear, we focus on ongoing relationships. Our fully managed service means we handle hosting, security, updates, and content changes so our clients can focus on running their businesses. Many of our clients have been with us for over a decade.

We build custom websites rather than using WordPress or template platforms. This gives our clients faster, more secure sites that we can modify and expand as their needs change. Combined with SEO and content services, Sagentic Web Design handles the complete digital presence for our clients.

DARE Print & Sign Co. is our full-service print shop brand, established in January 2020. We produce printed materials, commercial signage, and custom apparel for businesses and organizations in Cañon City and beyond.

The print shop grew out of client demand. For years, our web design clients asked us to help with their printed materials since we had already designed their logos and brand identity. Opening DARE Print & Sign Co. allowed us to serve these needs directly rather than referring clients elsewhere.

From our downtown Cañon City location, we offer business cards, brochures, banners, storefront signs, vehicle graphics, custom t-shirts, and much more. Having design and production under one roof means faster turnaround and better quality control for our clients.

Sagentic Web Design and DARE Print & Sign Co. share the same team, location, and design resources. When you work with one brand, you have access to the capabilities of both. This integration is the core advantage of Sagentic LLC.

Most businesses juggle separate vendors for web design, printing, and signage. This leads to inconsistent branding, miscommunication, and wasted time coordinating between companies. Our structure eliminates these problems. We design your logo once and apply it correctly to your website, business cards, storefront sign, and company shirts.

The practical benefit is convenience and consistency. Need a new website and matching business cards? One team handles both. Launching a promotion? We update your website and print the flyers. Rebranding? We roll out your new look across every touchpoint at once. One relationship, one phone number, complete marketing coverage.

Working with a single company for web and print eliminates the most common branding problems businesses face. When different vendors handle different pieces of your marketing, your brand often ends up inconsistent. Colors do not match. Logos get stretched or placed incorrectly. The overall impression is unprofessional.

With Sagentic LLC, one design team creates and maintains your visual identity. We know exactly how your logo should look, what your brand colors are, and how everything should fit together. This knowledge applies whether we are building your website or printing your business cards.

You also save time and reduce frustration. Instead of explaining your brand to multiple vendors and coordinating between them, you have one point of contact who knows your business. Need something done? One phone call. Have a question? One email. It is simply easier.

Yes, Sagentic LLC is a true family business in every sense. Kenny and Erica Haferkamp founded the company together and continue to run it as a husband-and-wife team. Both of their daughters are connected to the business as well.

Our daughter Jeorjia Dare, the namesake of DARE Print & Sign Co., already works with us. Our daughter Autumn Sage, who inspired the Sagentic name, is currently serving in the Air Force and plans to join the business after completing her military service and marketing degree.

Being a family business means we take the long view. We are not trying to grow fast and sell out. We are building something that will support our family and serve our community for generations. Our clients benefit from this stability and commitment.

Sagentic Web Design has been in business since June 23, 2003, making us one of the longest-running web design agencies you will find. We started in Texas and operated there until moving to Colorado in 2019.

DARE Print & Sign Co. was established in January 2020, shortly after we opened our Cañon City location. While the print brand is newer, it builds on the same design expertise and client relationships we developed over the previous seventeen years.

Over two decades in business has taught us what works and what does not. We have seen web technologies come and go, design trends rise and fall, and countless competitors appear and disappear. Our longevity comes from focusing on relationships and delivering consistent quality rather than chasing trends.

We primarily serve small and medium-sized businesses, non-profit organizations, and local government agencies. Our clients typically do not have in-house marketing departments and need a reliable partner to handle their branding, website, and marketing materials.

Over the years, we have worked with clients in many industries including medical and dental practices, restaurants, construction and trades, professional services, real estate, retail, tourism, and many others. This diverse experience helps us understand different business needs and marketing challenges.

What our clients have in common is a desire for quality work from people they can trust. They want a long-term partner, not a vendor who disappears after the project is done. If that describes what you are looking for, we are probably a good fit.

Our office and print shop are located at 710 Main Street in downtown Cañon City, Colorado. We are on the main street in the heart of downtown, easily accessible with convenient street parking.

Walk-in visitors are welcome during business hours. You can stop by to discuss a project, drop off files, pick up print orders, or simply meet the team. Many clients appreciate being able to work with a local company they can visit in person.

While we love our local clients, we also serve businesses throughout Colorado and across the country. Web design, digital marketing, and most print products can be handled remotely with shipping available for finished materials.

No, we work with clients throughout Colorado and across the country. While our physical location is in Cañon City, web design and digital marketing work can be done entirely remotely. We have long-term clients in multiple states who we communicate with by phone, email, and video calls.

For print and sign services, we can ship finished products anywhere. Business cards, brochures, banners, and apparel can all be delivered to your location. The only service limited to our local area is sign installation, which requires our team to be on site.

That said, we especially enjoy working with Cañon City and Fremont County businesses. Being part of the local community matters to us, and we take pride in helping local organizations succeed.

Three things set us apart: our integrated structure, our relationship focus, and our ownership mentality. Most marketing companies specialize in one area. We offer both digital and physical marketing under one roof, which means better brand consistency and less hassle for our clients.

We also prioritize long-term relationships over transactions. We are not trying to close a sale and move on. We want clients who stay with us for years, and we earn that loyalty through consistent quality and responsive service. Many of our clients have been with us for over a decade.

Finally, we are owner-operated. When you work with Sagentic LLC, you work directly with Kenny and Erica, not account managers or junior staff. We take personal responsibility for every project because our family name is on the door.

You can reach us by phone at (719) 881-0098, by email, or through the contact form on our website. We respond to inquiries promptly, typically within one business day.

You are also welcome to visit our office at 710 Main Street in downtown Cañon City during business hours. Walk-ins are welcome, though scheduling an appointment ensures we can give you our full attention.

For website clients, Sagentic Web Design can be reached at sagentic.com. For printing and signage, DARE Print & Sign Co. can be reached at dfremonareprint.com. Both brands share the same physical location and phone number.

Yes, community involvement is important to us. Erica serves on the Board of Directors for the Royal Gorge Chamber Alliance and is Co-Chair of the Chamber's Marketing Committee. This keeps us connected to local business needs and allows us to contribute to economic development efforts.

We also support local non-profits and community organizations through our work. Many of our clients are non-profits who benefit from our experience helping mission-driven organizations communicate effectively on limited budgets.

Choosing downtown Cañon City for our location was intentional. We wanted to be part of Main Street, support other downtown businesses, and contribute to the vibrancy of our community. When local businesses succeed, everyone benefits.
