Our Plan:

At first, based on the client’s goals, we started to make Crawford & Brinkman more visible online and through Google Search. We helped them achieve this through a new website and ongoing SEO. However, as Crawford & Brinkman began to grow, so too did the services we offered. Over time, 309 Marketing increased their SEO campaign, implemented paid ads through SEM, started traditional media, and more. Recently, Crawford & Brinkman became one of our first clients to utilize our new review management service.

The Results:

Crawford & Brinkman came into the digital age with the help of 309 Marketing. And as one success led to another, Crawford & Brinkman took full advantage of every service we offered.

While some companies can pick and choose the marketing programs they wish to implement, there’s nothing more successful than a full-service marketing strategy. We helped Crawford & Brinkman grow and expand their business using every media and advertising service in the book (both digital and traditional).
