Technology, Development & Digital Solutions
I Don't Just Build Websites. I Build Solutions.
Since 1992, Headline Media has helped businesses turn ideas, problems and opportunities into working technology.
I'm Christian Peterson, and Headline Media is my consulting and development company. Over more than three decades, I've worked with businesses ranging from small companies and boutique organizations to financial institutions, government agencies and companies managing complex operations.
Today, my work goes well beyond traditional web design.
I help businesses figure out what technology can do for them—and then build it.
That can mean a new website, a custom database application, an internal management system, an automated workflow, an AI-powered solution, an e-commerce platform, or simply fixing and improving a system that somebody else built.
What I Do
Custom Web Development
Websites and web applications designed around the way your business actually operates—not around a generic template.
Custom Programming & Applications
If you have an idea that doesn't fit into an off-the-shelf product, we can build it. From customer-facing applications to sophisticated internal business systems, we develop the technology around your requirements.
AI Integration & Automation
AI is changing what businesses can accomplish. We help identify practical opportunities to use AI for customer service, data analysis, communication, document processing, workflow automation and everyday operations.
Database Design & Business Systems
A good database is the foundation of a good business application. We design and develop secure, efficient databases and the applications that make your information useful.
Website Development & Redesign
Whether you need a completely new website or an existing site needs to be rescued, redesigned or modernized, we can help. We work with WordPress, PHP, ColdFusion and other technologies and can work with your existing system rather than forcing you to start over.
Legacy System Development & Support
Sometimes the best technology for your business is the technology you already have. We specialize in understanding, maintaining and improving established systems—including older ColdFusion and custom database applications that other developers may no longer want to touch.
E-Commerce & Online Services
We develop online stores, customer portals, subscription systems, scheduling systems and other web-based services that allow your customers and employees to accomplish more online.
Hosting, Maintenance & Technical Support
A website or application isn't finished when it goes live. We provide hosting, maintenance, troubleshooting, security updates and ongoing technical support for the systems we manage.
Design, Branding & Marketing
Technology still needs to communicate. Our network of designers and marketing professionals can help with logos, branding, print materials, website graphics, advertising, copywriting and SEO.
A Different Kind of Technology Company
There are plenty of consultants that can build you a website.
There are plenty of programmers who can write code.
And there are plenty of agencies that can sell you an AI solution.
What makes Headline Media different is that I look at the whole problem.
I'll learn how your business works, identify where technology can make a difference, and then determine the best way to get there.
Sometimes the answer is a new website.
Sometimes it's a database.
Sometimes it's automation.
Sometimes it's AI.
And sometimes the smartest solution is to fix what you already have.
Real-World Experience Matters
My work includes custom management systems, database-driven websites, mobile applications, e-commerce platforms, customer portals and AI-powered business applications.
For example, Headline Media has developed systems that help companies manage field operations, process real-estate documents, operate online businesses and manage complex property-management operations. I've also built systems that capture phone calls, analyze conversations with AI, automate workflows and give management real-time access to their business information.
That's the kind of technology that goes far beyond a brochure website.
From Idea to Implementation
You don't have to know exactly what you need before you call.
In fact, many of my best projects start with a client saying:
"I have an idea, but I'm not sure how to make it work."
That's where I come in.
We'll talk through the problem, determine what is possible, establish priorities and develop a practical solution that fits your business and your budget.
And because Headline Media has been doing this since 1992, I understand something that is often missing in today's technology world:
Technology is supposed to serve the business—not the other way around.
