About · A B2B marketing agency, since 2006

A marketing practice built around complex products.

A B2B marketing agency for manufacturers and technical-product brands. Twenty years of commercial creative work. Independent through every cycle. The same craft running underneath the strategy and the math.

Origin · the long arc

Two decades of commercial creative practice. Independent throughout.

The practice started in 2006 as a commercial photography studio — mostly product, mostly industrial, mostly working for the people who actually built and sold things. Twenty years later, the practice has evolved through multiple business forms and grown into a full-service marketing agency, but the constants haven't moved: independent ownership, senior operators on every engagement, deep product literacy, and an unreasonable standard for the work that ships.

What's common across all of it: a craft posture that holds whether the deliverable is a product photograph, a paid search account, a brand system, a website rebuild, or a board-meeting attribution dashboard. The medium has changed. The standard hasn't.

We made the move from commercial creative practice to full-service B2B marketing agency because the engagements demanded it. Mid-size manufacturers and technical-product brands — the operators we'd worked with for years — needed strategy, paid media, SEO, and reporting in the same hands as the creative. Otherwise the work fragmented across three vendors, and the math fell through the gaps. So we built the agency around closing those gaps.

That's the story. The rest is what we made along the way.

The math, in aggregate

What twenty years compounds into.

Aggregate counts across the practice. The achievement triplet (+340% qualified leads, 8.4× ROAS, −38% CPL) lives on the proof-tile band — this is the proof-of-scale band.

Sales team · sales handoff · account managers

The senior team that scopes your engagement is the team that runs it. We are deliberately structured this way.

Named clients

Five we can name. Forty-five we can describe.

Some engagements are public, some are NDA. We'll only name what we have permission to name — everything else gets described by industry shape.

Plus another 45+ partner companies across industrial equipment, technical products, metal fabrication, and manufacturing — described by category on the relevant industry vertical pages.

The operating posture

Five things we actually hold to.

01

The product shape is the test, not the business model.

A complex, expensive, well-supported product is what we know how to market. Whether it's manufactured here, imported, assembled, or commercialized through a dealer network is secondary — sometimes it's a mix.

02

Senior on every account.

The senior team that scopes your engagement is the team that runs it. No account manager between you and the operator.

03

Strategy and craft, in the same hands.

The plan and the work are built by the same team, in the same shop. The brief never gets translated. The campaign launches on the date the strategy assumed.

04

The math your CFO will read.

Revenue first. Pipeline second. Channel performance third. Activity last. Reports follow the order your CFO actually reads numbers in — not the order the agency wants to defend.

05

Independent. By design.

No outside investors. No PE timeline pushing growth-at-all-costs. We run the shop because we like running the shop. The math has to work, but it doesn't have to scale at someone else's pace.

How big is the team?

We don't quantify team size on the site. The substance signal comes from the house numbers above — twenty years, $20M+ ad spend managed, 50+ partner companies, 100+ websites. That's how we feel real without claiming a roster. The structural commitment is "senior on every account" — whoever you talk to is the operator.

Are you a creative agency or a marketing agency?

Marketing agency, full stop. The creative capability is unusual for a shop our size, and it's the asymmetric advantage when the work pulls hard on it — but the lead is the marketing math. Strategy, paid media, SEO, content, lifecycle, attribution. Creative is a lever inside that, pulled when the math says it'll move the number.

What industries do you actually work in?

Industrial equipment OEMs, metal fabrication, technical and engineered products (consumer + B2B), and the broader manufacturing space. The common shape: complex, considered-purchase products with longer sales cycles, real competitive pressure, and strong margins. Not e-commerce commodity. Not lifestyle DTC. Not software-as-a-service.

Where are you based?

The team operates from the Pacific Northwest (44.0582° N · 121.3153° W). We work with clients across the US and a few international. Most of the work is remote-first; we travel to client sites for shoots, dealer meetings, trade shows, and quarterly reviews when the engagement calls for it.

Do you take on PE-owned companies?

Yes — we currently work with PE-backed industrial groups and have for years. The PE timeline isn't a problem; the work either compounds in a way that supports the exit thesis or it doesn't. We're built to make sure it does.

Are you hiring?

We hire infrequently and we hire carefully. If you're a senior strategist, designer, copywriter, or operator with deep product literacy in industrial / technical categories, the careers page has standing language — the door is open even when the postings aren't.
