Slickrock Marketing
Traction you can measure.
Marketing that turns spend into customers, tracked from the first click to the closed sale and reported in numbers you can read. Strategy, ads, search, social, web, video and automation, run by a founder who had to close the leads before he ever ran the campaigns.
Or call 801-867-1169. You'll get Sean.
Why "Slickrock"
Most marketing is motion. Traction is movement you can measure.
Slickrock is the petrified sandstone of Moab. It looks too smooth to hold. It grips better than any surface a tire will ever touch. That's the standard for everything we build: results that hold, on ground that looked impossible.
Posts go out, ads run, invoices arrive, and most business owners can't tell what any of it moved. We fix that by measuring the only things that matter, leads and customers and what they cost, and by telling you plainly what's working and what isn't. Every month.

Four stops. The same trail every time.
Audit
We look before we spend: your site, listing, ads, reviews and tracking. You get the findings in plain English whether or not you hire us.
Plan
One page. The goal, the channels we'd run first, the number we expect and the date we'll know. No forty-slide deck.
Build
Tracking first, then the campaigns, pages, content and automations that produce the number.
Report
Every month: spend, leads, customers, cost per customer, and what changes next. Two minutes to read.
The report
Two minutes to read. Impossible to spin.
Spend, leads, customers, cost per customer, by channel, next to last month and the quarter before. Then three lines: what worked, what didn't, what changes next.
If a number needs a paragraph to look good, it isn't good. Here's how to read any agency's report like an owner.
Illustrative figures showing the report format. Your numbers will be your numbers, in the same four boxes, every month.
Work
A site built to be measured from day one.
VP Recycling Materials, San Diego
A concrete and asphalt recycler with a one-page web presence needed a site that told contractors what it accepts, what the rules are and how to get there, and that could rank for the searches they actually type. We built the full site, five landing pages from a single data file, AI-produced facility visuals and a hero video, with attribution wired in before launch.
