"In December of 2012 I decided it was time to take my One Man Operation to the next level. Having been pretty successful almost solely on Word of Mouth Advertising, I was ready for the challenge of growth. So on Christmas Eve I did a Google search for marketing companies that specialize in small businesses. I ended up sending email information requests to three of the companies I found in my local area. I figured I would hear back from someone after the holidays were over. Just two days later I received a call from Jessica with Hot Dog Marketing. This was impressive to me. The first thing I thought was “Wow. Here’s someone who is a workhorse like myself, definitely a good sign.” We spent a few moments on the phone so that she could gather information about my business and the direction I was trying to go. Within a week of this conversation I was sitting down at a coffee shop with Jessica as she presented her ideas on company branding, business card designs and a plan for web site development. Another week later my company had a brand new look, business cards in hand and the website design underway. Very impressive, especially considering that I had not even been sent an acknowledgement by the other two marking companies in which I had made inquiries. Within another two weeks my website was launched and the phones were starting to ring. All in all, within three months, my sales were up close to 40%. Twelve months after that I had hired my first employee and put a second van on the road, with plans to hire a second employee and third van by next spring. Jessica and Hot Dog Marketing continue to be a valuable part of my team."
"Hot Dog Marketing is completely a 5 star operation for many reasons: their creativity, their willingness to "really " listen to the customer, and their professional "can do" attitude and undeniable patience with the process. Jessica the chief strategist, should call herself a Chief Muse - She is very polished and she brings big company professional flare, style, and sound marketing strategy. They immediately got what I was trying to create and didn't try to cut any corners or have me buy into some other idea. They allowed me to elaborate on my vision and Brandon the creative director, took it on and created an amazing, beautiful website that so captures my business expression. This is a huge triumph for me because of my 17 year background I wear many hats (provide several services) and they were able to meld of them together in a cohesive flow. They definitely made me standout!! Thanks so much. I will definitely be recommending them."
