"As we were reviewing agencies for Nuts and Bolts Hardware, we realized that with a thin internal marketing team, we needed more than a digtial agency - we also needed an outsourced CMO. Mark and his team were able to quickly get their heads around our unique needs. The results have been phenomenal."

- Tim Haake, President

"I was referred to SMI by a colleague here at Service Management Group. We were undertaking a large website build and were introduced to SMI during the final stages of agency review. After engaging the SMI team for a couple of meetings, we were convinced they were the right choice. Now that we are launched, I’m even more pleased with our decision."

 - Shad Foos, VP of Marketing

"The SMI team came highly recommended to me. I hired them to launch our new surf boat line - and gave them just over 2 months to do it. Well, they did it, and the response from dealers and boat owners has been overwhelming. I don’t believe we could have done this in a traditional agency environment."

- Paxson St. Clair, CEO
