Why We Market Differently™

We listen. We strategize. We execute. 

The Back Pocket CMO™ provides the comprehensive strategy, the ethical and honest tactics, and a strong support system professionals need and want to effectively reach their target market and increase client engagement of their products and services.

We redefine marketing for professionals in careers such as law, medicine, finance, education, and the arts bringing transparency, clear messaging, and authentic communication to relationship driven marketing experiences.

We strive to provide a personal service experience while supporting our clients through the marketing, branding, and publicity/PR strategy processes to achieve and exceed their goals.

We work to make marketing enjoyable, purposeful, relatable, and engaging for our clients and their clients.

The Back Pocket CMO™ serves small and medium business owners, nonprofits, and professionals in a multitude of career fields who are ready to move their business, organization, or personal brand forward through a comprehensive marketing strategy and its execution.

We believe that business owners and law, medicine, finance, education, and arts professionals have the potential to make a tremendous impact on the lives of those living in the communities they serve.

The Back Pocket CMO's clients range from start-ups, solo and small firms, independent practices, financial institutions, galleries, non-profits, and other local and regional businesses to larger, more established, national organizations. We offer a wide range of services and strategies for each step of our client’s business growth journey.

We believe… 

• in goal driven strategies and execution.
• that one size and one way doesn’t fit all.
• that using templates ends up in misaligned messaging.
• in persistence and resilience over consistency and perfectionism.
• that marketing must reflect the unique nature of our client’s business.
• in integrated marketing communication and multi-faceted marketing strategy development: marketing, branding, and publicity/PR are interrelated and work together to create an impactful strategy for businesses today.

At Back Pocket CMO™, we believe, exemplify, and internalize the following values to ensure a well-rounded client experience.

We market ethically and honestly.

In a world where marketing is full of scarcity tactics, countdown timers, and strong-arming, we don’t do any of that, and we don't create marketing strategy and plans for our clients that incorporate those tactics. Period. 

We Market Differently™.

We put relationships first.

Whether you hire us or not, at Back Pocket CMO™, if you’ve connected with us in any way, you’re part of the family, and we will treat you that way. We prioritize people over profits, valuing real relationships and diversity in our business.

We champion ownership.

We take 100% responsibility for our roles, our efforts, and our results. When something doesn’t work - we keep at it until we figure it out.

We make our strategies uncomplicated, tactical, and sustainable.

We diligently pursue your vision and goals for your business or personal brand through strategic planning and execution. We help you work SMARTER, not harder, to earn your clients. 

We focus on excellence.

We expect excellence in all we do and produce for our clients. We aim to continually improve, knowing that progress is more important than perfection.
