2012, I worked at a local news agency in digital marketing. I was damn good at my job. I trained sales reps on how sell websites to local small and medium businesses, I helped them write engaging copy using SEO and keyword best practices, I reviewed Google reporting and made suggestions for local businesses on how to improve their ranking on Google.

If you're ready for something different, ready to work with an agency who honors your business independence and empowers you to keep control of your digital presence,  contact us. We'll discuss your business needs, dreams and budget and get to work on something amazing.

We will never hold your website hostage.
You will have access to make your own updates and we will even teach you how. If you are not interested in making your own updates, you can hire us to do them. 
You will ALWAYS own your own domain.
You will have direct access and ownership to all of your Google tracking services. We  believe that even if you are unfamiliar with Google reporting, you should have access to them because they are YOURS.

Trailhead Tech is something different.

I’ve seen over and over in the web building industry, that it’s commonplace for agencies and web developers to own your domain (the name of your website). That means if you want to operate your website on your own or with a different agency later and keep the same name, you CAN''T without talking to them. I’ve even seen some agencies and builders not hand over ownership to domains and force clients to start over with a brand new website with no SEO history.

that didn’t sit right.

If our clients wanted to make updates, they HAD to go through us. If they chose to stop working with us, their website got taken down. If they chose to stop working with us, we took down their Google listing and they had to start all over. Their analytics reports would be gone, all that history that helps you determine their next move.

It was fulfilling, exciting and engaging. I LOVED watching these small businesses grow and helping take some responsibilities of running their business off their plate.

What did this mean for the businesses?

It was rewarding work, until it wasn’t.

I quickly learned that the company I worked for, owned these local businesses' online presence. What did that mean? Only we could update their Google storefront listings. Only we could run reports on their analytics to see how well they were performing. Only we had login access to their Google storefront.
