The Strategic Results Marketing Story

STRATEGIC RESULTS·FRIDAY, MARCH 23, 2018·
FOUNDED IN 1999:

Strategic Results Marketing (SRM Agency) was born out of a passion for the small business owner’s success and talent for creating strategic visibility packaged with results, or ROI (as the corporate world calls it) in the small town of Prescott, Arizona. We were a full-service marketing agency, provi

ding all aspects of marketing services for almost every business type you would find in small-town America. A partnership between a few friends provided the launchpad for the SRM Agency to have the confidence to quit our day jobs and build a company that could provide peace of mind to small businesses. The peace of mind came through knowing that the advertising & marketing efforts were handled AND through the regular reporting that showcased the results and return on investment. While the partnership failed to thrive, the agency succeeded in providing branding, advertising, content, websites, press coverage, and other needed talents in our local community. In 2003, the SRM Agency downsized with a move to Utah. However, the downsizing resulted in a strategic position in the online marketing world, providing much needed online visibility and capturing ROI for online businesses and coaches alike. With the onset of social media for business (mostly through LinkedIn, MySpace, and then Facebook in 2007), creating online relationships and managing online visibility quickly became an important and affordable source of business for small business owners around the world. In 2014, the SRM Agency expanded its consulting & agency services to provide online visibility services for high-end service professionals. Focused energy is spent supporting attorneys, health care professionals, and others with all things that matter in the world of online reputation: website development, content marketing, social media, organic SEO/SERM, directory listings and review sites. We develop and manage your online presence. ABOUT THE FOUNDER: MARY PAT KAVANAGH

MaryPat Kavanagh, the chief marketing strategist, has extensive experience in marketing and small business since 1989. She has owned retail businesses, restaurants, and consulting practices and has been extremely involved in her community through the local Chamber of Commerces, National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO), Shared Vision Network, Jaycees, and other networking and professional development organizations. In 1999, she opened Strategic Results Marketing in Arizona. Strategic Results Marketing was an expert marketing firm specializing in entrepreneurial strategizing and planning. She has since developed the “Entrepreneur’s Bottom-Line Marketing Plan”, simplifying marketing for entrepreneurs. Strategic Results Marketing has been down-sized. In 2002, MaryPat realized that she was not authentic with her business and her life. She realized in conversation one day that, although she was the single mom of 3 girls, although she was a prominent business owner in the community, although she was involved in local organizations including the Chamber of Commerce, most people who knew her did NOT know that she was a single mom. When she moved to Utah, she decided she would change some things. She downsized her business–only working with online entrepreneurs who leveraged speaking as a marketing strategy. She only worked virtually–no more busy meetings every day that required traveling all over. And now she only works with people who understand and accept that she is a mom first, passionate business owner & strategist second. Today, MaryPat develops success-driven marketing plans and offers mentoring & training programs that empower you to achieve the results you need to accomplish the goals, the mission, and the vision you know is possible! MaryPat has been featured in publications and received many awards including Jaycee of the Year (Greater Prescott Jaycees, 2000), Salt Lake City Chapter President’s Award (National Association of Women Business Owners Salt Lake Chapter, 2010), and, most recently, NAWBO Member of the Year (National Association of Women Business Owners Salt Lake Chapter, 2017).

The most overlooked marketing question for established businesses:
What happens after someone refers you?

Most business owners focus on getting more referrals. Very few focus on what happens next.

Here's the journey most prospects take today:
Someone recommends your business.
They search Google.
They visit your website.
They check your reviews.
They look at your Google Business Profile.
They visit your LinkedIn profile.
They decide whether to contact you.

Notice something? You aren't present for most of that process. Your online presence is.

The question isn't whether you're getting referrals. The question is whether your referrals are making it to a conversation.

The businesses winning today aren't always getting more referrals. They're converting more of the referrals they already have.

What do you think referred prospects look at first when researching a business online? Share your answer below.

Five things a referred lead checks before they contact you.

If you've built your business through reputation and referrals, this matters. Today's prospects verify before they engage.

Here are the five places they're looking:
1️⃣ Your Website: Does it clearly explain what you do and who you help?
2️⃣ Google Business Profile: Is it complete, accurate, and active?
3️⃣ Reviews: Not just your rating. They're reading what clients say.
4️⃣ Social Media:: Does your profile reflect your expertise and current business?
5️⃣ Content: Are you sharing anything that demonstrates your knowledge?

Your online presence doesn't have to be perfect. But it should inspire confidence. Every one of these touchpoints either reinforces trust or creates doubt.

Which of these five areas do you think businesses neglect most? Drop the number in the comments.

If you'd like a professional review of your online presence, send us a message about our complimentary Website Audit.

Business owners are often told they need:
A better website.
More content.
More video.
More social media.
More email marketing.
More automation.
More AI.
More everything.
But growth rarely comes from doing more.
It comes from doing the right things well.
The most successful businesses we work with aren't everywhere.
They're clear.
They're consistent.
And they're focused.
You do not need to do everything.
You need to know what matters most for your business.
If you're tired of conflicting marketing advice, let's simplify it.

Marketing should not feel like another full-time job.
Yet for many business owners, that's exactly what it has become.

They're trying to keep up with every platform.
Every trend.
Every algorithm.
Every new piece of advice.
And it's exhausting.

The goal isn't to do more marketing.
The goal is to build a marketing system that supports your business without consuming it.
A system built on clarity.
Consistency.
And focus.

If you're ready to simplify your marketing and focus on what actually moves the needle, book a one-on-one conversation with MaryPat.

The businesses that thrive over the next five years won't necessarily be the ones with the biggest budgets.
They'll be the ones that are easiest to understand.

Clear businesses attract attention.
Clear businesses build trust.
Clear businesses generate referrals.
And clear businesses convert more opportunities.

The challenge isn't being everywhere.
The challenge is communicating your value clearly wherever your audience finds you.
If you're not sure how clearly your business is communicating online, let's have a conversation.

Seven years. That is how long our clients typically stay with Strategic Results Marketing.

Since opening our doors in 1999, we have paid close attention to what creates lasting client relationships.

When we ask our clients why they continue working with us, the answer is simple:

We handle the details so they do not have to.

Our clients already have enough on their plates. They do not need another task to manage, another system to learn or another marketing project to chase.

They need a partner who understands the bigger picture, communicates clearly, follows through consistently and takes responsibility for the details.

We handle the marketing so our clients can focus on what they do best.

Long-term partnerships are built through trust, consistency and results delivered over time.

What do you value most in a long-term business partner?

Expertise? Communication? Consistency? Results?

We would love to hear your perspective.

One of the most valuable things a business owner can have today is clarity.

Not more information.
Not more tools.
Not more tactics.
Clarity.

Because once you're clear on what matters most, decisions become easier.
Marketing becomes simpler.
Growth becomes more intentional.
And overwhelm starts to disappear.
Most businesses don't need a complete overhaul.
They need a clear roadmap.
That's what strategy provides.

If you're looking for clarity around your marketing priorities, schedule a one-on-one conversation with MaryPat.

Word of mouth may get your name mentioned. Your online presence determines whether the phone rings.

Many businesses were built on referrals and still depend on them. But today, a recommendation is rarely the final step. It is the beginning of a new search.

When someone recommends your business, the potential customer will often:

* Search your name online
* Visit your website
* Read your reviews
* Check your social media profiles
* Ask an AI tool about your business
* Look for an easy way to contact you

They are checking whether what they find supports the confidence created by the referral.

If your information is outdated, inconsistent or difficult to find, that confidence can quickly disappear.

Word of mouth still matters. Your online presence must help complete the journey from recommendation to enquiry.

You have already done the hard work of earning the referral. Do not lose the opportunity during the verification stage.

The good news is that it is fixable.

If someone searched for your business today, would what they find make them more likely to contact you?

Many business owners assume their website is 'good enough.'
Until they look at it through the eyes of a prospect.

Ask yourself:
Does your website clearly explain what you do?
Does it explain who you help?
Does it explain why someone should choose you?
Does it tell visitors what to do next?
If any of those answers are unclear, your website may be creating friction.
And friction costs opportunities.

A website doesn't need to be flashy.
It needs to be clear.

If you're unsure whether your website is helping or hurting your business, let's talk.

AI is not replacing business relationships.
It's changing how those relationships begin.

People still want trusted experts.
They still want referrals.
They still want human connection.
But increasingly, they are using AI tools and search engines to evaluate businesses before making contact.

That means your expertise needs to be visible online.
Not hidden in conversations.
Not buried in old web pages.
Not locked inside your head.
The businesses that communicate clearly will have an advantage.
The businesses that stay invisible will struggle to be discovered.

Want to understand what this means for your business?
