Payson is a small mountain town in Gila County, Arizona, about 90 miles northeast of Phoenix. It’s known for cooler weather, pine forests, and outdoor recreation—making it a popular getaway from the desert heat. Payson is essentially Arizona’s “mountain escape town”—close enough to Phoenix for a weekend trip, but different enough to feel like a completely different environment with trees, lakes, and fresh air. Founded in the 1880s as a ranching/logging town, Payson hosts the World’s Oldest Continuous Rodeo (since 1884). It was influenced by Western author Zane Grey and is known for festivals, car shows, and small-town events.

The Client
The Project
Payson’s economic director approached us with a request for a new tourism website for the town. The site would have database features listing trails, outdoor activities, events, and include a feature where users could change the site’s color scheme for each season. Our proposal met their requirements and budget and we won the project. We worked closely with the client, staff, and a local marketing firm, remaining flexible as their needs changed over time. We launched the site within their timeframe. The town management and citizens were very happy with the site.
