Results from individual client engagements. Yours depend on your market, competition, and scope.
What Makes Us Different
Research Comes First. Always.
Market analysis, competitor positioning audits, client interviews, and keyword mapping — using methods previously only available to the largest research firms. We can have research, a new website, and an ad campaign live in as little as four weeks.
You'll know exactly who we're targeting, why they buy, and what message will reach them — before we spend a dollar of your budget.
AI-Powered Competitive Intelligence
Competitive intelligence that used to take three weeks takes us three days. Market research that required a full-time analyst happens before your first strategy call.
You'll have the data before your first dollar is spent.
Every Dollar Tied to Revenue
We track appointments booked, consultations scheduled, clients signed, and revenue generated.
When you ask "is our marketing working?" you'll get a number with a dollar sign.
We're not for everyone. And that's the point.
We take on 3-5 new clients per quarter. No exceptions. We don't run a content mill or hand you off to a junior account manager. We learn your business, your clients, and your market so well that our team sounds like your team.
If you want the cheapest agency in the room, we're not it. If you want the one that treats your budget like their own money, keep reading.
From Research to Revenue: What We Build
Six capabilities. One project. Every piece connected to the research that drives it.
Marketing Strategy & Research
Know your market before you spend a dollar. We find out who your best clients are, what makes them pick you over the firm down the street, and where to reach them the moment they're ready to buy.
Learn about our research process →
Website Design & SEO
Your next client is Googling your service right now. We build sites that show up first and convert visitors into booked consultations, not bounced sessions.
See how we build sites that convert →
Content Marketing
Rank for the questions your future clients type into Google at 11pm. Research-backed articles, case studies, and thought leadership that prove your expertise to search engines and to the humans reading it.
Explore our content approach →
Digital Advertising
Qualified leads on a timeline you control. Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn. Campaigns measured against booked appointments and signed clients. Not clicks. Not impressions. Revenue.
See how we run ads that pay for themselves →
Email Marketing
Nurture leads who aren't ready to buy yet. Automated sequences, newsletters, and re-engagement campaigns that keep your firm top of mind until the moment they need you.
Learn about our email systems →
Social Media Marketing
Win clients, not followers. Research-led strategy, a managed content engine in your voice, and paid social on Meta and LinkedIn. Measured against consultations booked, not likes.
See our approach to social →
Research, Launch, Scale. In That Order.
Research
Before we touch a single headline, we learn your business. Market analysis. Competitor positioning audit. Interviews with your best clients. Keyword and search demand mapping. Messaging framework development.
You get a strategy document that shows exactly who we're targeting, what we'll say to them, and why it'll work. Nothing launches without your sign-off.
Launch
Website, content, and ads built on what the research told us. Every headline traces back to a real insight about your market. Every ad targets a real behavior your prospects exhibit. Every landing page speaks the language your clients already use.
Optimize
Your project is complete and the systems are running. From here, we track performance against the metrics that matter: appointments, consultations, revenue. If you want ongoing optimization, we offer monthly maintenance plans. But you own the system either way.
Firms That Stopped Guessing
"Josh and his team were instrumental in making our business name change a success. After 7 years of built-up web presence, social following, and name recognition, that's not a decision you take lightly. With Cascade on our side, we recovered that brand recognition and gained even more, specifically in the industries and professions we needed."

We Know Your Business. Not Just Your Industry.
Since 2016, we've worked with professional organizations across industries. We understand the buying cycles, compliance requirements, and competitive dynamics that make your market different.
Lawyers
Referrals kept your practice alive for years. They won't keep it growing. Whether you handle estate planning, family law, or criminal defense, we help firms dominate local search and fill the calendar with consultations from people who've already decided they need a lawyer. They're just deciding which one.
Architects
Your portfolio is the best sales tool you have. Buried on page 3 of Google, it's also the most expensive one. We build the online visibility your built work deserves.
Landscaping
Beautiful work photographs itself, but it won't market itself. We turn your best installs into the search visibility and steady project inquiries that keep your crews booked through the season, not just at its peak.
Builders
Word of mouth built your company. It also made your pipeline unpredictable. Digital marketing doesn't replace those relationships. It means the right projects find you before you have to go looking.
Associations
Your 1-2 person marketing team is doing the work of five. We build the website, email automation, and content systems that multiply what your team can do. Project-based, delivered in weeks.
Accountants
January through April, your calendar fills itself. May through December shouldn't be a struggle. Year-round content and advertising that keeps advisory services, estate planning, and business consulting visible.

Straight Answers to the Questions You're Already Thinking
How is Cascade different from other marketing agencies?
Every engagement starts with research — market analysis, competitor audits, client interviews, and keyword mapping. Using AI-powered methods previously only available to the largest firms, we can have your full strategy, website, and ad campaign live in as little as four weeks.
What does "research-driven" actually mean?
Competitive positioning audits. Search demand analysis. Client interviews. Keyword intent mapping. Everything we build traces back to real data about your market, not a template we used for the last firm.
How long until we see results?
Paid ads can generate qualified leads within the first month after research wraps. SEO and content marketing build over 3-6 months. We set specific benchmarks during strategy so you'll know what to expect and when.
Do you work with firms outside Washington?
Yes. We're based in Tacoma, but about half our clients are in other states. Digital marketing doesn't require a shared zip code. Results do.
Why only 3-5 new clients per quarter?
Because we'd rather get you results than bill you for headcount. Small roster means senior-level attention on every account. No junior managers reading scripts. No round-robin support tickets.
How much does it cost?
Every engagement is scoped to your firm's goals, market, and competitive landscape. We'll give you a clear proposal with line-item pricing after the strategy call — no vague "it depends" runaround.
