OUR STORY

To truly know a person, you must first understand what motivates them. – Simon Sinek

Motivated by the belief that a strong business sector is the backbone of a healthy economy, we work tirelessly to grow opportunities for the communities that support us. 

We are serious about this sh*t and it shows. 

How It Started

What do you get when a marketing strategist, communications expert, and an ethical sales enthusiast get together for a few drinks?

You get an increasingly impassioned rant ridiculing outdated marketing and sales tactics (and the shameless impostors that mindlessly call themselves marketers) at the expense of paying clients.

In our case, you also get the first meeting of a future company determined to showcase holistic marketing as an essential business practice and bring about a new generation of marketing experts.

We saw the pain caused by unscrupulous practices then created the solution.

Innovative Approach

What is Next-Generation Marketing?

Next-generation Marketing seeks to blow traditional marketing silos to smithereens.

Here is what you need to know:

  • Marketing is a broad range of skills and tactics that require unique expertise to master.
  • Traditional marketing groups these subject matter experts (SMEs) together without a scalable way to integrate their knowledge and create unified strategies.
  • The result is individual departments fighting over resources because it is what is best for their department instead of fighting for what is best for the client.
  • Somewhere along the way, business owners, analysts, and financial advisors decided marketing is optional.

Next-generation Marketing bridges the gaps traditional agencies ignore. It is a holistic approach and unapologetically reminds us that marketing is an essential business practice.
