A Digital Marketing Agency Built For Small Business Owners
The Most Expensive Decision You’ll Make Is Trying to Figure Out Digital Marketing by Yourself
You didn’t start your business to master marketing. You began because you excel at what you do. You believed hard work would pay off.
You thought helping customers would get you more calls. But then someone convinced you that you could handle your own SEO.
You also thought you could run Google Ads and manage social media. Now, you’re tired.
Your results are inconsistent. You can’t tell what’s effective or if anything is working.
It’s not that you’re not trying hard. You didn’t get the right guidance. Digital marketing today is extremely fluid and is evolving all the time.
Every two months, it’s something new. To make it more complex- the AI Search frontier is upon us.
Each hour you spend figuring out keywords, blog posts, Google Ads setup, or ChatGPT, is an hour lost.
You could use that time to serve customers. You could close deals.
Or you could play with your kids and enjoy being a business owner.
Just because digital marketing is imprtant to your business does not mean you need to be a slave to it.
Not anymore.
The real cost isn’t the money wasted on ads. It’s the leads you missed. It’s the customers your competitor took. It’s the time you can’t get back.
Stop chasing bright shiny objects in between Facebook scrolls. Stop replying to emails who say they “saw your website and can improve it overnight.”
You need a partner who stays on the forefront of current technology leading into AI Search, yet has the experience and the chops to know how to sell your stuff.
If you think I’m asking you to delegate your digital and local marketing position to me, you’re right. And I have 31 clients who would tell you I’m right also.
Read on.
I’ve been There.
As a former small business owner who burned through cash in digital Marketing- Learn from my mistakes.
In 2008, I was paying $1,400 a month to Vivial (now Thryv or Hibu) digital marketing company that delivered almost nothing. (You can read the whole grisly story by clicking here).
So I fired them, got Google SEO certified, and learned what actually works. I built a digital marketing agency of record system that actually works for a small business owner.
By 2011, I’d become one of the top franchisee marketing consultants in the U.S., helping brands like Marco’s Pizza, Buffalo Wings & Rings, and Planet Fitness build winning local strategies.
In 2020, I launched Mader Marketing—the only Agency of Record built specifically for small business owners. Now I’m obsessively learning AI marketing so you don’t have to.
You run your business. I’ll run your digital marketing.

THE MADER MARKETING, LLC timeline
scott fires vivial
After wasting boatloads of money based on the “yellowpages digital marketing” company (Vivial)- Scott wises up and pulls the plug on his commercial cleaning business marketing program. Being hyper-motivated- Scott learns anything and everything about SEO, Google Search, and all things digital.
scott dramtically increased size of his cleaning company
After firing Vivial. Scott was able to use the $2500 per month to go from one truck to six trucks and sell his company in 1 1/2 years. Later, Scott would admit the first 3 months were very difficult- as he invested all money and time in learning what does and doesn’t work for small business owners with respect to digital marketing. He then sells his cleaning company for 4x earnings.
SCOTT ROLLS OUT HIS NEW “SMALL BUSINESS MARKETING AGENCY CONCEPT” TO THE LOCAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
After helping other local small business owners fire their large digital marketing companies, Scott is retained by a national corporate franchisor to help all their franchisees throughout the country. He is subsequently hired by companies such as Planet Fitness, Marcos Pizza, Skyline Chili & more, becoming one of the top LSM consultants in the country.
