We’re A Different Kind of Marketing Agency

If you are struggling to bring in more leads to your local business in Northeast Ohio, it might be time to reconsider your current marketing efforts. Especially if your current tactics aren’t showing you the ROI data you desire.

Traditional methods such as billboards and radio ads can only be measured to a certain extent. And while we all wish to be as well-known from our eyebrows like Mr. Misny, it can get costly. Which is why we use a proven lead source tracking system that allows you to see ROI and key marketing data as we progress throughout your online campaign. When you choose to partner with our digital marketing firm in Cleveland, you will not only be able to see your site’s progress in traffic and keyword rankings but most importantly, your sales.

SCM is a tremendous partner to have! They help my department in a myriad of ways. They have helped us recruit students, boost our web presence, and create strategies to get our programs out into the world. With their help, we recruit students world-wide and we are able to connect those students with resources to support their goals. Additionally, they take their client relationships seriously. I can always count on my SCM management team to deliver on their promises. They are flexible and friendly and always have their clients in mind. I highly recommend Sixth City Marketing.

We worked with Sixth City Marketing for over a year to improve the search engine results for a new graduate program we launched. The team worked diligently for months to land our program at the top of Google’s first page. I was impressed with the creative ideas they implemented to help our website dramatically rise through the rankings. I strongly recommend Sixth City to any institution of higher education that wants to see their enrollment numbers increase. Stuart Squires, Ph.D. St. John’s Seminary in California

“With a NY marketing/PR agency in my own background, I am picky! But in all ways Sixth City either meets or exceeds my expectations. I am most impressed by (though I can’t stand the jargon!) the “team” assembled for our project and how they relate to each other and the client, AND by their ultra-preparedness for every meeting. They are a pleasure to work with; they never say no; their quality is top-notch; and if that weren’t enough, they are fun!” – Bill Rudman, Founder and Artistic Director, The Musical Theater Project
