Sound familiar?

You're spending on marketing. You're just not sure it's working.

Most owners don't need more activity. They need someone experienced to tell them what is working and what to do next.

Paying an agency, unsure what you get

Long reports, a contract full of terms and no one on your side to tell you whether it adds up or what to ask for instead.

Plenty of data, no direction

Analytics, ad dashboards and social insights all say something different. Without someone to read them together, decisions come down to guesswork.

Making the big calls alone

Budgets, channels, hires and agencies land on your desk. You want an experienced strategist to check your thinking before you commit.

Five steps from the first call to steady weekly support. You work with Chantz directly the whole way.

Marketing consulting for business owners: when it makes sense

By Chantz Yager, founder of High Tide Marketing in Savannah, GA

Most owners don't lack marketing activity. They lack a clear view of what is working, what isn't and what to do next. A marketing consultant gives you that view and helps you act on it, without handing your whole marketing to someone new.

Signs you could use a strategist

  • You pay an agency but can't tell what you get. The reports are long and the results are unclear.
  • Your data points in different directions. Analytics, ad dashboards and social insights don't agree.
  • Competitors seem to be everywhere. You want to know what they do and where you can win.
  • You make the big calls alone. Budgets, channels and hires, with no one experienced to check them against.

What consulting with Chantz covers

You work one-on-one with Chantz. He goes deep on your analytics and your competitors, reviews your agency contracts and current marketing, and gives you recommendations and key insights. Then he builds a custom action plan with you and supports you every week, with weekly and monthly calls.

Consulting when you already have help

Consulting works alongside an agency or an in-house team. Chantz can review what your agency has agreed to deliver, help your team prioritize and give you an experienced second opinion before you make a change.

Questions to ask any marketing consultant

  • Who will I actually talk to? Know whether you get the strategist or a junior account manager.
  • How often will we meet? A plan only helps if someone keeps you on it.
  • What will I have at the end of the research? You should get clear insights and a plan you can act on.
  • Will you help me build it? Advice is easier to follow when your consultant helps you put it in place.

Why owners choose Chantz

Chantz founded High Tide Marketing, a veteran-owned agency in Savannah, GA, and works with a tight-knit team with more than 20 years of combined experience. He and the team have led website and SEO work for clients like Contego International and Rural Realty.
