About Me

Hi, I’m Dillon, the founder of Hearthstone Supply.

I was born and raised in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and I’ve always believed there’s something special about supporting the businesses that make our community what it is. Over the years, I’ve developed a passion for technology, problem-solving, and finding creative ways to help businesses grow.

Like many entrepreneurs, my journey didn’t start where it is today. Hearthstone Supply originally began as a product-based business. Building that business from the ground up taught me far more than just how to sell a product. It gave me hands-on experience with website design, branding, search engine optimization (SEO), Google Business Profiles, online marketing, social media, customer experience, analytics, and what it truly takes to build an online presence that people can find and trust.

As I continued learning, I realized something. I found just as much satisfaction helping other businesses grow as I did building my own.

Today, Hearthstone Supply has evolved into a digital growth partner for small businesses. I work directly with business owners to create professional websites, improve their visibility on Google, strengthen their online presence, and build long-term strategies that attract more customers.

What makes my approach different is that I don’t believe every small business should have to pay large agency prices to receive quality service. I focus on honest communication, affordable solutions, and long-term relationships built on trust and measurable results.

Whether you’re starting from scratch or looking to improve what you already have, my goal is simple: help your business become easier to find, easier to trust, and easier to grow.

As someone who was born and raised right here in Cedar Rapids, there’s nothing more rewarding than helping fellow business owners succeed in the same community that helped shape me.

I look forward to helping your business grow.
