Why TC3 exists
Marketing should be judged the way sales is: by what it brings in
I spent more than a decade in sales and business building, where every activity gets measured by the revenue it produces. In 2014 I founded Complete Revenue Solutions, a healthcare revenue cycle company in Columbus, and built its brand, website, and search presence from scratch.
TC3 Marketing applies that same standard to local marketing. Not impressions or "reach," but calls, form fills, and bookings. If a tactic isn't bringing in customers, we change it.

Discipline you can see in every project
Digital strategy. Precision execution. Mission accomplished. Here's what that looks like when you're the client.
You work directly with me
No hand-off to a junior account rep. I handle your strategy, communication, and execution personally.
Clear scope up front
You know what's included, what it costs, and when it will be done before any work starts.
Measured by real results
I report on calls, form fills, and bookings every month, in plain English.
You own your assets
Your website, domain, accounts, photos, and videos belong to you. Nothing is held hostage.
Honest recommendations
If the right next step is something you can do yourself, I'll tell you. If something isn't working, you'll hear it from me first.
Published pricing
Starting prices are on the website, and every engagement gets a written price before work begins.

Hands-on experience on both sides of the sale
Before TC3, I built and marketed my own company, led sales teams, and spent years selling into the same kinds of local businesses I work with now, including bars and restaurants across Central Ohio.
That means I understand the pressure on your front desk, your crew, and your slow nights, and I build marketing that fits how your business actually runs.
