A communications agency in Corsica that also speaks tech
Redesigning a logo, launching a website, showing up on Google, running social media: these jobs often go to different suppliers who never talk to each other. The designer delivers guidelines that nobody follows, the website ignores the brand, and the ads send visitors to a page that does not convert. In the end, both your image and your budget get scattered.
KALLISTACK is a company based in Bastia, founded by Alexandre Sciacca, a full-stack engineer with more than ten years of experience. Design and digital marketing are thought through alongside development: mock-ups take into account what can actually be built, SEO is part of the website from day one, and campaigns rest on reliable measurement. You deal with a single point of contact, from the first sketch to the follow-up on results.
We work with SMEs, start-ups and public bodies. Every enquiry gets a reply within 48 hours, and every quote is written clearly, without jargon.
How a design and digital marketing project unfolds
Whether it is a logo, an advertising campaign or ongoing support, we follow the same approach. It lets you approve each stage before the next one begins.
- 01
Understand
We talk about your business, your customers, your competitors and your goals: being recognised, getting more calls, filling quiet periods, recruiting. We also look at what already exists, so that we keep whatever works.
- 02
Design
We propose a direction: logo concepts, screen mock-ups, an SEO action plan or a campaign strategy. Mock-ups are approved with you before anything goes into production, which avoids unpleasant surprises.
- 03
Build
We produce the agreed deliverables: identity files, interfaces, content, ads, posts or print-ready documents, keeping you informed as we go.
- 04
Launch and support
We go live, publish or distribute, then measure what happens. Adjustments are based on real data, and you always know what has been done and why.
Marketing on the island: seasons, languages and local search
For many local businesses, activity follows the seasons. A hotel, a restaurant or a boat hire company does not communicate in the same way before the summer, at the height of the season and over the winter. Holidaymakers often plan their stay from mainland France or abroad, well before they arrive, and that is when they compare reviews, photos and websites. Your marketing therefore needs to be ready before the peak, not during it.
Many of these visitors do not speak French. A website, a Google listing or a menu available in English, or even Italian, makes their decision easier. At the same time, loyal local customers keep many shops and tradespeople going all year round: they look first for a name, opening hours and a phone number they can trust, close by.
Either way, local search carries a lot of weight. Your Google Business Profile, the free listing that presents your business on Google Maps and in search results, and the reviews your customers leave often shape the choice before anyone even visits your website. We treat them as a full part of your marketing.
Design and digital marketing that deliver lasting results
There is no magic formula, but a few principles separate marketing that pays off from money spent with nothing to show for it.
- 01
Consistency
The same logo, colours and tone on your shopfront, website, social media and documents. Repetition builds recognition; inconsistency erodes it.
- 02
A clear message
What you do, for whom, where, and how to reach you: if a visitor cannot grasp that within a few seconds, even the finest design will not help.
- 03
Regularity
SEO and social media reward steady effort. A modest pace kept up over time beats a spectacular one-off followed by a long silence.
- 04
Measurement
Calls, quote requests, bookings, requests for directions: we track indicators that mean something for your business, rather than flattering figures such as the number of likes.
- 05
Promises to avoid
Guaranteed top rankings, bought followers, fake reviews: these shortcuts do not last, can damage your image for a long time and, in the case of fake reviews, expose you to legal penalties.
What determines your marketing budget
We do not publish prices, because no two projects are quite alike. For design work, cost depends mainly on the number of deliverables, their complexity and how many variations are needed. For SEO, social media management or advertising, it depends on the amount of ongoing work, the number of channels and languages, and the level of follow-up you want.
Online advertising also involves a media budget, paid directly to Google or Meta and separate from our management fees. We help you size it according to your goals, and you set the cap yourself. In every case, the quote itemises each element, so you can make informed choices and start with what matters most.
Who this service is for
Shops, restaurants, hotels and campsites, tradespeople, independent professionals, associations and local authorities, as well as SMEs and start-ups, in Haute-Corse and beyond. Whether you are launching a business, refreshing a tired image or looking for more customers, we start from your goals and your customers, not from a ready-made package.

Frequently asked questions
Where should I start: logo, website or advertising?
Usually with your visual identity, because everything else builds on it: your website, social media and printed materials all reuse its colours and tone. If you already have one that works, we keep it. Advertising tends to come later, once the page that will receive visitors is ready to turn them into enquiries.
Can you guarantee me the top spot on Google?
No, and nobody can honestly promise that: rankings depend on Google, on your competitors and on how searches change over time. We work on what genuinely drives visibility, namely a technically sound website, useful content, a complete business profile and customer reviews, and we show you how the results evolve.
How much does design or digital marketing work cost?
It depends on the scope: how many items or screens need designing, how much is new rather than reworked, how many languages are involved, and how much ongoing work is needed for SEO, social media or advertising. After a first conversation, you receive a clear, itemised quote with no jargon, before you commit to anything.
Do you only work with businesses on the island?
No. We work with SMEs, start-ups and public bodies on the island, on the French mainland and elsewhere, and most of the work runs smoothly at a distance. Every enquiry gets a reply within 48 hours.
Can you take over an existing brand identity or website?
Yes. We start by reviewing what you have: what works, what has dated and what is missing. Depending on the case, we modernise your logo without losing what makes it recognisable, complete your brand guidelines or start afresh. The same applies to a website or to social media accounts.
Who provides the copy and the photos?
Either way works. You can send us your text and images, which we lay out and adapt to each format. We can also write the content based on an interview with you and advise you on the photos you will need.
Will I own my accounts and files?
We recommend that your advertising accounts, social media and Google Business Profile are opened in your name, with manager access for us, so you stay in control whatever happens. For design work, the assignment of rights and the list of files handed over are set out in writing in the quote.
