does quality marketing feel out of reach?

often, managers of small brands run into “solutions” that don’t really fit their needs:

factory agencies that churn out generic results

artists who make work that looks great but doesn't meet broader marketing goals

advertising options that don't arise from a foundational marketing strategy

how I work...

How I Work
personalized

As a one-man agency, I work with a handful of clients at a time - working on deep projects with a few rather than shallow projects with many.

comprehensive

Rather that random acts of marketing, I provide a cohesive set of services to help my clients develop a comprehensive marketing program... like it should be.

results-focused

I take a result-focused approach with your business goals in mind. This isn't just about creating artwork that looks nice, but creating marketing tools with a purpose.

sustainable

I prioritize tools and solutions that fit with my clients' capacity and that remain useful long after they are first launched.

I came to Tad for assistance because my business had become stagnate.  We feel great about the product and services we can offer at Embold.  However, we were having trouble getting our organization noticed.  After talking with Tad, I quickly realized the piece we were missing was the expertise he could provide.  Tad was engaged to completely revise our marketing strategy.  I couldn’t have asked for a nicer guy to work with on our project.  He was kind, patient, and extremely knowledgeable.  The results of his efforts have been outstanding!  We have experienced tremendous growth since he reset our strategy.  Tad has established himself as a highly valued, long-term partner for Embold.

The Pickwick Place was looking for an overarching marketing strategy.  We needed someone that could provide relevant recommendations in the ever changing media landscape.  Tad has taken the time to understand the vision of our business and he has put intentional marketing into play that aligns perfectly with where we want to go.  This past year our business experienced a growth of over 30%.  We also expanded our Facebook audience by 29% in the course of 8 months.  We credit Tad for providing the leadership needed to achieve our goals.

As our group of partners was being formed, there were some question-marks around our marketing strategy and brand messaging. Through working with Tad, we were able to hone in on our branding and develop our messaging to help us be consistent and relevant to our target audience. Although everyone in our group entered into the work with prior experience, Tad was able to offer us much value through the process–both as a facilitator and with a knowledgeable perspective from outside of our organization. The copywriting and messaging tools that Tad then crafted for us were both compelling and professional, and put us on a path to move forward confidently.

My new nonprofit consulting organization, the Center for Nonprofit Leaders, hired Tad Fannin to craft our website.   Tad helped us think through not only the design, but also the core audience and purpose of the site.   Tad was highly responsive, well organized, clear in his communication, and most importantly he followed through with his promises.   The result was a clean, well-constructed website that serves effectively as a our calling card.   Thank you Tad!

In spite of being in the community for 50 years, we were frustrated by the number of people who had never heard of us, let alone ever "trying us".  Discussed with Tad how a promotional video for our audiences, service clubs, social media sites and supporting material for grant requests might boost our visibility.  
Tad was exceptionally easy to work while developing a script and editing a 3.5 minute video that was an outstanding success in helping us get our message out.  Our subscribing membership and individual show ticket sales are on the rise again, at least in part, Thanks to Tad's creative talents.
I am sure that this is only the beginning of our future collaborations.

When Tad started working with us, we knew we needed help updating our website. He took our ideas and created an eye-catching and user-friendly website. Tad has been easy to work with and is dedicated to his projects/clients. We have seen an increase in our website orders/traffic and have received several comments on the design from our customers. Besides being a pretty cool brother-in-law, Tad has been a great marketing partner!

Working with Tad has been a very good experience. When we first started I had a lot on wanted to accomplish on my website and the experience I wanted to capture for customers. Tad did an astounding job with truly listening to my ideas and made adjustments accordingly to strike a perfect balance of capturing my vision while utilizing his well understood knowledge of media platforms and techniques. I have been happy with the results and continue to work with him on future projects.
