Two-week iterations, not 12-month commits
Engagements are scoped in two-week sprints with clear deliverables. You can pause or pivot without breaking a contract.
If you've already tried Email with another Kalamazoo-area shop and it didn't move the number, we'd like to see the data. Most often the strategy was sound but the measurement was broken — and that's the first thing we fix.
Email is still the highest-margin marketing channel because the audience is yours and the unit economics are predictable. We build lifecycle programs — welcome series, abandonment, post-purchase, win-back, anniversary — on Klaviyo, HubSpot, or whatever platform you already pay for. Most Kalamazoo accounts we inherit are running one weekly broadcast and nothing else; the gain from adding 6-8 triggered flows is usually 2-3x revenue per recipient.

Based in the Elkhart, Indiana area and active across the Midwest and Great Lakes — same time zone as your team, on-site visits when the project warrants it.
GA4, server-side tracking, modern CMSs, current ad APIs. We're not still running an agency on tools from 2017.
Code, creative, accounts, and strategy documents all live in your systems. No proprietary lock-in, no hostage data.
Kalamazoo is the home of Stryker (one of the world's largest medical-device firms), Pfizer's largest US manufacturing site, and Western Michigan University. A college-town energy plus a serious life-sciences and medical-device industrial base that punches well above the city's size.
Verticals we regularly serve in and around Kalamazoo:
Kalamazoo sits at the center of a region we know well — Kalamazoo County and the surrounding Michigan corridor where many of our Email clients are based.
We work with businesses across the surrounding area:
For ecommerce and direct-to-consumer: Klaviyo. For service businesses with a sales team: HubSpot or ActiveCampaign. For very small lists: Mailchimp is fine. We work in all of them and won't push a migration unless the math is clear.
We pair SMS with email for transactional moments (abandonment, order updates) and time-sensitive offers. Compliance with TCPA and the 10DLC carrier rules is non-negotiable on our end.
Yes. Domain warm-up, DMARC/DKIM/SPF setup, list cleanup, and inbox-placement testing through tools like GlockApps. If you're already in the spam folder we triage that before adding volume.
Revenue per recipient, list-growth rate net of churn, and incremental revenue from triggered flows. Open rates are unreliable post Apple Mail Privacy Protection — we use them as directional signal only.
Both. We're headquartered in the Elkhart, Indiana area and serve businesses across the Midwest and Great Lakes — including Kalamazoo and the broader Kalamazoo County / Michigan market. For Kalamazoo-area clients we'll come on-site for kickoff and quarterly reviews when it makes sense; day-to-day work happens over video and Slack like any modern agency.
