Digital Marketing for Your Hometown Business
Helping Small Businesses in Ohio Grow
You’re ready to grow locally but can’t do it all when it comes to marketing, especially digital marketing. Or maybe, you’re a hometown brick-and-mortar store moving into online sales and e-commerce. Website, social media, paid PPC advertising, videos, a new logo — Where do I start? How much do I spend? Is it too risky? How will I get it done? As a locally-owned and operated business in Auglaize County, we hear these questions all the time. We get it. In fact, we’ve been in your shoes.
How to Thrive in Uncertain Times
We understand that small businesses drive the beating heart of Ohio. We work as your digital agency partner and business coach, supporting your online efforts to survive and thrive, no matter what the world throws at you. Whether you want to reach new audiences or increase sales with advertising and an online store, we have the in-house experts who can make it happen. Let’s drive more revenue together!


How Much Will It Cost?
There is no single answer to this question, and we don’t have cookie-cutter packages. We believe in strategy first -- that means we recommend a program based on your goals.
We sit down and talk about your growth goals and current budget, your challenges, competitors and we help you map out future budgets and ROI. We’ll monitor and show you regular data reports, and we’ll adjust to keep hitting your goals. Simply put, we want your business to succeed. It’s part of our community too.

“We needed a website redesign and strategy but as a small business, we had a limited budget. Patty, the CEO from Marketing Essentials, patiently answered all of our questions and made sure we were comfortable with the services we would be receiving. The digital team that worked on our site were all fantastic and very responsive to questions. They also did a great job of keeping us on track throughout the project. Working with Marketing Essentials has been a very positive experience, and I highly recommend them.”
