Is TMC Marketing the Right Fit?
TMC Marketing is a Kenosha, Wisconsin agency that runs marketing as one accountable, in-house U.S. team. We work best with businesses that want the whole marketing function handled, or one channel done properly, and that want to own everything we build. This page says plainly who we are built for, who we are not, why some of our policies are firm, and what happens in your first 90 days.
Who TMC Marketing is built for, in one place
- Best fit: established businesses with $1M to $50M in revenue, or smaller businesses that want a custom package.
- Systems are flat monthly rates: Visibility $2,450, Growth $4,250 and Command $9,500, or $12,000 with Elite.
- Systems run on 12-month agreements. Custom packages can also run month-to-month with a setup fee.
- Most clients are fully operational in two to three weeks, with check-ins at 30, 60 and 90 days.
- Every request is done within two business days, and most within 24 hours.
- You own your website, data, ad accounts and content. Websites are full rebuilds, not patches.
Who We Are Built For
A Good Fit If…
- You want one team accountable for strategy, execution and results
- You are juggling three or more vendors, or the owner has become the accidental CMO
- You are already selling and have a proven offer
- You can give a system twelve months, or want to start with one service done properly
- You want to own your website, data, accounts and content outright
- You want reports on qualified leads and revenue, not likes
Probably Not the Right Fit If…
- You are pre-revenue and still validating your offer
- You only need a few posts or a one-off task
- You are looking for the lowest-cost provider
- You want small fixes to a website someone else built, without an SEO engagement
- You need signage, printing or promotional products
Not sure where you land? Ask anyway. If we are not the right fit, we will say so and tell you what to fix first.
The Policies We Hold Firm, and Why
Each rule exists because of something we have seen go wrong for a client.
Twelve-Month Agreements
Search and content need a year to compound. Custom packages can also run month-to-month.
Full Rebuilds, Not Patches
Patches can’t fix speed or AI readability. You own the finished site outright.
Covered When Someone Is Out
Three teammates who know your account can step in for your main contact.
Your Approval First
Nothing publishes without your sign-off, unless you choose a hands-off workflow.
You Own Everything
Your site, data, ad accounts and content stay in your name, with a free export if you leave.
Two-Business-Day Turnaround
Every request is done within two business days, and most within 24 hours.
What Happens After You Say Yes
Every engagement follows the same four phases: Audit, Strategy, Build and Scale. Website rebuilds and video projects run on their own schedule, agreed on the discovery call; a standard website targets launch within 90 days.
Days 1 to 21: Audit and Strategy
- Onboarding starts within a few days of signing
- We collect account access, brand assets, content examples and your goals
- Full audit of your channels, messaging, competitors, analytics and spend
- Analytics, Search Console and ad tracking cleaned up; baseline recorded
- Your CRM connected, or calls, forms and chat routed into ours
- Strategy, channel plan and benchmarks agreed in writing
Days 21 to 60: Build and Launch
- First campaigns and content go live on a set schedule
- Every post, email and ad approved by you before it publishes
- Strategy meetings every two weeks, or monthly on Visibility
- 30-day check-in and your first monthly report
- Paid ads typically producing leads within two to four weeks of launch
- Old vendors transitioned out; 60-day benchmark review
Days 60 to 90: First Results Review
- Early results from paid channels and email
- SEO foundations in place and keywords trending
- Monthly report measured against the written benchmarks
- 90-day check-in: first performance review against your KPIs
- Plan for months four to twelve, reset every quarter

Who is TMC Marketing best suited for?
Established businesses of about $1M to $50M in revenue that need a full marketing department without hiring one, and smaller or local businesses that want a right-sized custom package from one accountable team. Our clients include manufacturers, fire departments, a business improvement district, nonprofits, fitness studios, restaurants and home builders across Southeast Wisconsin, northern Illinois and beyond.
Who is TMC Marketing not a good fit for?
Businesses that are pre-revenue and still validating an offer, anyone who needs only a few posts or a one-off task, buyers looking for the lowest-cost provider, and anyone who wants small fixes to a website built elsewhere without an SEO engagement. We also do not sell signage, printing or promotional products.
Why do TMC Marketing systems require a 12-month agreement?
Strong marketing takes time to build, test, optimize and scale, and strategies like SEO, AEO and content need consistent momentum before they produce meaningful traction. Twelve months gives both sides the time to take the right steps instead of rushing short-term activity. In certain circumstances we offer a six-month performance review provision. If you need more flexibility, custom packages can run twelve months, six months case by case, or month-to-month with a setup fee.
Why does TMC Marketing only build full website rebuilds?
Patching a site built on another platform cannot fix its speed, structure or AI readability, and those are what decide whether a site wins leads and AI citations today. A rebuild lets us guarantee all three, and you own the finished WordPress site outright. Active SEO clients are the exception: we make ongoing changes that support search performance, provided their current developer grants access.
What happens in the first 90 days?
In the first two to three weeks we collect access and materials, audit every channel, clean up tracking and agree a strategy with written benchmarks. Campaigns and content launch next, with strategy meetings every two weeks (monthly on Visibility) and your approval on everything that publishes. Formal check-ins happen at 30, 60 and 90 days, and the 90-day review sets the plan for the rest of the year.
What do you need from us to get started?
Brand assets, account access, content examples and your business goals. If you already use a CRM or call tracking such as HubSpot or CallRail, we connect to it; if not, leads can run through the TMC Marketing CRM. From there we guide the process.
Does the work depend on one account manager?
No. Every account has a named point of contact, but strategy, campaigns and reporting run through documented frameworks inside accounts you own, so the work does not depend on one person. If your main contact is out, three other members of our in-house team can step in on your account. You talk directly to the strategists and specialists doing the work. We ask for two business days to complete any request, and most are done within 24 hours. See our operating standards.
When will we see results?
Paid ads typically produce leads within two to four weeks of launch, and email automation starts working in the first month once there is a list and a follow-up sequence. SEO and AEO compound: expect movement in two to four months and real traffic changes in six to twelve. We set these benchmarks in writing at the start.
What happens if we leave?
You keep everything: your domain, website, CRM data, ad accounts, social profiles, email lists and finished content. On written request up to 30 days after your final date, you receive one complete export at no charge, and we remove ourselves from every account. See what you own.
