01

Our Mission.

We partner with in-house marketing executives to help build, develop and optimize their internal SEO and content capabilities while strengthening vendor oversight. In short, we teach brands how to fish and how to lead in a search landscape that’s rapidly evolving with AI-driven discovery and decision-making.

02

What We Do.

We help you build sustainable operating models, develop high-performing teams, and coach internal talent to drive long-term success in organic search. Our work ensures your team is ready to compete, adapting to AI-powered platforms and shifting digital behaviors that are redefining how customers discover and trust brands.

03

Our Difference.

We are NOT an agency.  We are advisors to in-house, client-side marketers. We work with in-house marketing teams, guiding them to succeed in both foundational SEO and content strategy, as well as emerging areas like AI Search Optimization and content discoverability.

Catalyzing Your Brand’s Success.

We’ve spent decades leading in-house digital marketing for trusted brands and delivering measurable performance. We’ve walked in your shoes and that’s exactly why we’re able to partner effectively with your team to help you win across all digital channels. Today, we stay on the forefront of shifting frontiers like AI-powered search and zero-click discovery so your brand doesn’t fall behind.

What does partnership with New Media Advisors look like?

As your partner, we objectively assess your current programs and vendor ecosystem, evaluate the maturity and future-readiness of your digital strategy, and collaborate with your team to identify pathways for incremental revenue growth across owned and earned channels. With deep, first-hand experience leading SEO and content for some of the world’s most trusted brands, we deliver tailored, high-impact insights that work in real-world conditions, not just in theory. We work directly with your leadership to shape the digital roadmap, build a digital-first growth engine, identify the right partners, and ensure your strategy, execution, and measurement stay laser-focused on business outcomes.

Most importantly, we empower your team to thrive in a world where AI is reshaping search, content, and the customer journey.

Our independent consultancy is ideal for mid-market or enterprise brands looking to assess, reshape and scale digital marketing investments that maximize revenue and grow market share. We also work well with private equity or venture capital firms that need digital thought leadership, oversight or guidance for their key portfolio companies.

We help build your team and strengthen digital channel capabilities to drive both near- and long-term business growth while future-proofing your performance across traditional and AI-enhanced search environments.

What We Do

Our new client engagements are intended to achieve quick wins. Our goal is to prove our value, earn your trust and develop a long-term, ongoing relationship.

We are change agents. We will be a catalyst in your organization, influencing key decision makers and internal influencers on a better way forward in digital channels. You work directly with us! We do not sell you our expertise and then disappear or staff your engagement with armies of junior-level, unseasoned consultants. We are going to be in it right alongside you. 

  • We are seasoned experts.
  • We are experienced marketing leaders that also know how to ‘do’.
  • We have been in your shoes. 
  • We thrive by identifying issues and solving problems with viable, realistic solutions.
  • We bring much-needed objectivity to your business. 

“Brent’s breadth and depth of skills in digital marketing is second to none. We worked together for many years and he kept us on our toes, always pushing for the most innovative and effective strategies”

Our Difference

We build Bridges.

Simply put, the agency-partner model is broken. Turnover is rampant. You are leasing expertise.  None of this works to your brand’s advantage.

We want to help you build a sustainable, client-owned model that produces results and ultimately phases us out of the picture.  We can (and will) set up your programs and run them for you if that’s what your organization needs and wants – but that is not our primary objective nor is that ideal for the types of forward-thinking brands we best serve.  Our objective is to build bridges – with you – between where you are now and self-sufficient, successful digital marketing growth.

“Scott is an innovative leader that knows how to get the most out of his team, create a culture of high performance and has a unique ability to blend both the art and the science of digital marketing”

Our Story

We have History.

We sit in the unique position of having started in Marketing just as digital was becoming a ‘thing’ nearly 20-years ago. In fact, the first mobile marketing campaign was in 2001. The release of the iPhone 1 was in 2007.

We grew up doing digital marketing for Financial Services companies – first as doers of the work, then as leaders of teams, then as Executives.  As our careers grew, we moved into client-slide senior leadership roles, overseeing large programs and departments and then, ultimately, into running entire Marketing organizations.

We have rolled up our sleeves and done the hard stuff.  We have failed fast, learned quickly and embraced the need to adapt, change and guide business partners into new and emerging areas. We have worked inside the risk and compliance guardrails that exist in Financial Services.  Most importantly, we know how to drive value for organizations in this industry because we have walked many miles in your shoes and have learned what it takes to create lasting success.
