Fawkes Digital Marketing

Who we are

Fawkes Digital Marketing is a full-service digital marketing agency that started in Michigan City, Indiana, at the end of 2012. We moved to Northern Alabama in the fall of 2022 to further help businesses grow, as our technology has allowed us the ability, for ourselves and our clients, to work remotely and not be tied to a single physical location. We now have team members in Alabama, California, Florida, Indiana, North Carolina, and Texas.

We focus on digital marketing (self and full-service) and providing customer relationship management (CRM) software for businesses to grow at an affordable price. These are web design, organic local search engine optimization (SEO), and online reputation management. We service clients throughout the United States and Mexico.

We utilize computer software, data analytics, and the human mind to create custom-tailored marketing solutions for our customers. We use analytics from as many data points as possible to increase the growth of our customers.

We are proud to achieve a consistent 10% or more growth for our monthly care plan clients over the past ten years. For 2023, every client has grown by more than 10%.

Local businesses are the lifeblood of our local economies; without them, our local communities would suffer. Yes, big brands are all over, but local small and medium businesses sustain the economy, so we've focused on helping them grow.

We believe in breaking the mold by using our agile software development expertise to adapt and change quickly to the current marketing conditions. This separates us from traditional marketing agencies. We provide not only traditional marketing but also marketing through the use of modern and updated software.

Additionally, this allows us to customize our software for your specific needs.

Fawkes has created hundreds of websites from individual business owner sites to fortune 500 websites. We cover everything from the healthcare field needing full industry HIPAA compliance, compliance with ADA (Americans with Disabilities) which is a requirement for anyone dealing with government industries, to service based businesses.

We believe in using industry standards wherever we go. Our go to for many busineses is WordPress which powers over 40% of the Internet. We don't just use that as our answer though. We talk with you and with our knowledge of over two decades of buisness consulting provide a recommendation for the best solution that will generate business leads and growth for you. We are build on WiX, Squarespace, customer HTML, Drupal, Joomla, and Webflow.

For the past 15 years we have been creating and leading the way on mobility. We build on a mobile-first strategy. Everything we do focuses on your phone, tablet, and desktop devices. As technology changes and evolves we take the time and effort, for you, to take advantage of these technologies so that you are always shown in the best light.

Absolutely. By using industry best practices and thinking of keeping things simple and easy to use and understand you will be able to edit the site yourself. We provide videos for training (a quick 30 minutes) and you'll be rocking your own changes. We're always here to help and in if you're using our affordable monthly maintenance plans we include all the updates for you.

You do. This is your business. We consider ourselves your dedicated employee to help you grow. At the end of our working relationship we provide you with everything so that you don't miss a beat and continue moving your business forward as we are strong advocates and believers in small and medium sized businesses.

We focus primarily on small to medium sized businesses that want to grow their business, not sit behind a computer doing their marketing (that's our job), and want a system that is desidnged for lead generation. We stay away from the adult industries and will work with any other industry. In our free initial consultation if we feel we can't help you we will be 100% upfront (honesty is our rule #1) and let you know who you should be looking for and key questions to ask them to make sure you have a great experience.

Yes, the initial consultation is free. This is where you will tell us everything you are looking for, interview us to see if we're a fit for your business growth, and we ask strategic questions so that we are 100% confident we can achieve the goals and aspirations your business is looking for.

During this process we go over our process for you and what you can expect from us. If at the end we feel confident in each other we work on getting everything started, setting phases (schedule), and getting your work done quickly and efficiently.

We break everything into phases when we work. We don't believe in grouping everything together and not keeping you in the loop. Below is our high-level project structure:

  • Go over everything you're looking for in a project.
  • Phase 1 - Test site (3-7 business days)
    • We build a site specifically for you.
    • We create the initial framework.
    • We create logo, branding guides, etc. so that we have consistency and you have consistency (if you don't already have.
  • Phase 2 - Building and Changes (this lasts as long as you need)
    • We send you a link to the test site.
    • We receive feedback and input from you.
    • We make the changes, continually test, evolve, and integrate items that make you perform higher than your competitors.
  • Phase 3 - Going Live (8-12 hours)
    • We do more than just change an IP address and make you live. We have a 50 step process to make certain your foundation is build solid from day 1.
    • We talk with Google, Bing, Yahoo!, and other search engines and let them know of your new site.
    • We start your monthly plan, which ever plan you choose.

Nope. We believe that if we did we would be being dishonest and our rule we live by is honesty (Rule #1). If your competitor would come to us we would let them know that we can't service them. We give every business a radius of how far we go out, depending on your monthly service plan. This ranges from a 5-mile radius up to a 50-mile radius. This allows you to make certain we are focused on getting you to the number one position on the search engines.

Absolutely we do! In fact, the majority of our clients are outside of Cullman Alabama as our work stands strong in any community. Our focus is on your growth and when we reach a new market we dig deep with our data analysis of your community and what is and isn't working based on information we gain through Google and our other resources.

Values We Hire, Fire and Work By

Honest & Radical Transparency

The digital marketing world is notorious for being opaque and scummy. We believe this is the wrong approach to take. Marketing itself isn't hard. It is just getting down, focusing on the analytics, and implementing the objectives of the business. We take the opposite direction with a radical and transparent approach to digital marketing.

Quality Over Quantity

Many digital marketing providers take a churn-and-burn approach to their work by trying to get as much done as quickly as possible. We have found this is great for their profits but doesn't produce the results to help grow your business.

We pride ourselves in our high-quality work focusing on looking at the big picture to give your business the growth you want.

Continuous Curiosity

With every business industry constantly adapting and evolving customer demands, we are focused on being agile to help you meet your business needs. We look for opportunities by seeing how people interact and find your business online. We adapt to the changing market of your industry.

Ownership & Accountability

Nothing can be more frustrating than having someone say, "that's not my problem."

We have never taken that approach. Instead, we take ownership of everything we do and are accountable for all aspects of the project. No matter how small or big a task request is, you own it and don't deserve any excuses to get your requests met.

Data-Driven Decisions

As a digital marketing agency, everything we do is recorded to see trends in your business and industry and how we can be more agile to your unique business needs. That is why the opportunities, insights, and recommendations we provide should are based on data rather than feelings, anecdotes, and sometimes even best practices.

Be Actionable

Providing recommendations without them being actionable doesn't help anyone. Instead, we offer suggestions that are specific and actionable in a way that everyone (internally and externally) understands. We can help our clients achieve continual business growth by being actionable through every step.

Security

Every day, security becomes more important than the day before in a business's life. As we build solutions for our clients, we emphasize protecting our client's data and proprietary information.

We place our honesty before security, as anyone can say they are secure. By putting honesty first, you can rest assured that when we say security is a high priority, you know it is.

Environmental Impact

As a family-owned and operated company, we look at our environment for every decision. We make sure we use recycled products whenever possible and utilize sustainable technologies for our servers. Since 2013, we have continued to reduce our carbon footprint annually and are now using 100% sustainable wind power.

Veteran Owned & Operated

Many companies will outsource some or all of their work outside the United States. As a company that is 100% owned by an American veteran, we believe other Americans best serve your USA-based business.
