Startup and small business growth marketing is about initiating and nurturing the connection between the product or service you’ve created and the consumers who need it. In most cases, your target audience has never heard of or tried your product or service. So they’re likely saying ‘yes’ or ‘no’ based on marketing alone.

That’s a big gamble if you don’t have marketing expertise.

Your initial marketing decisions are the difference between success or failure. To be successful, your message needs to be seen by the right people quickly, and build trust that leads to sales. That’s a lot of pressure, and can feel overwhelming to founders and business owners without a marketing background.

BrandGro Marketing can help you be effective quickly, right from the start.

How we help startups and growing small businesses:

  • Brand Identity / Brand Messaging

  • Marketing Strategy

  • Marketing Plans

  • Digital Presence (website, social media, email marketing)

  • Developing Marketing Metrics & KPIs

  • Marketing Budget Development

  • Marketing Leadership: Fractional Chief Marketing Officer (FCMO) or Marketing Director


25% of startup businesses fail in the first year. 70-90% fail within 3 years.

Let BrandGro Marketing help you to not be one of them.


BrandGro Marketing helps you breathe easy, and bring clarity and confidence to your marketing approach.
