We offer a range of services including:

• Graphic Design & Copywriting for all media including printed promotional pieces, blog posts, flyers, social media content and more.

• Sales Coaching & Custom Sales Training for small business owners, retail stores, B2B sales professionals

• Promotions that Get People Buying because small businesses can’t afford to waste money on just “getting your name out there”, all promotional pieces are designed to get results.

• Traditional Offline Marketing including radio, newspaper, direct mail, signage, flyers, business cards, rack cards, banners, yard signs, posters, and imprinted giveaway items…because its important while marketing in Michigan’s Thumb Area.

• Customer Rewards Programs and Customer Relationship Marketing CRM Setup In rural areas, you have a much smaller base of potential customers, and getting them back in for repeat business is crucial for success.

• Website Updates including blog posts, product/service photos, etc once your web designer is finished.

• Social Media Marketing whether you want someone else to manage it completely or just need to learn how to make it work for you, I can help.

• Full Service Marketing Many clients end up choosing to have me take care of all their marketing for them so they can focus on their business.

• Familiarity of the unique business ecosystem we have in Michigan’s Thumb. I have been involved in local business in Sanilac and Huron Counties for most of my life and career, and have worked with hundreds of local businesses in the last 30 years to help them grow.

• No agency commissions. Many marketing companies base their fees on how much is being spent on advertising, so they are incentivized to spend more. They make money by spending your money on advertising. I offer a flat monthly retainer for my contract clients and work very hard to keep actual advertising and print costs as low as possible.

You can reach us anytime via our contact page or email. Meetings can be done on site, meeting in a coffee shop, or via Zoom.

I discourage phone calls mainly because our cell service is very spotty and about half the time, my incoming calls don’t get through and voicemails aren’t delivered for days. You can also text once we get established…those always seem to get delivered!

We offer flexible pricing based on project type and complexity. After an initial conversation, we’ll provide a transparent quote with no hidden costs.

Every project and client is different, so every project is quoted in writing before work is started.

If you need printed items like banners, flyers, business cards, postcards, etc, I check with at least 3 different sources to get you the best price.

We meet either virtually or in person to discuss your goals and needs, then I get you a written proposal with exact pricing.

For my full service clients, after our initial meeting, I will draft an annual marketing plan within the budget and goals we determine, and every month you are billed 1/12th of the contract amount. We meet more in the initial setup time, then once a month after that. Before any ads are placed or printed materials are ordered, you will get a proof to approve.

My specialties are privately owned retail stores, restaurants, small agritourism businesses, health/wellness and service businesses in the Thumb of Michigan.

I also work with numerous Chamber of Commerce groups, DDA’s, Small Town Municipalities, local nonprofits and B2B sales organizations.

This is one area I usually refer to other specialists in the area like Business Soil of Harbor Beach, Clear Ideas of Sandusky, or My Cup of Media of Sandusky. Often I will work with you after the site is designed if you are already a client, to keep things updated.
