Marketing

01

SEO

Imagine being discovered by all potential customers searching for products or services related to your business. That's right; you're the number one option, the most highly ranked resource. That's the power of SEO (Search Engine Optimization). With so many competitors, businesses struggle to showcase themselves without an SEO strategy, even if they are the best resource or place to buy. Paid search advertising will help, but if you're not implementing SEO with paid ads, you risk costing yourself more than you can manage with ads that only go so far. If you want to play and be seen by leads, you need SEO - the key to visibility, credibility, website health, organic ranking, and conversions. 

02

Email

Email marketing is powerful, connecting businesses with their customers and prospects, building brand awareness, encouraging engagement, and driving sales. By sending targeted and personalized messages, companies increase customer loyalty and trust. Furthermore, email provides measurable results, allowing companies to track the success of their campaigns and make data-driven decisions. In today's digital age, a strong email strategy is imperative for business advancement. Here at Sherpa, we have some of the best email writers and strategists in the business. Our team knows how to grow, captivate, and convert email leads, making them loyal, long-term customers.

Our Methodology

We look for partners spanning a large spectrum of industries and sizes. We work with some of the world’s largest non-profits down to start-up consumer product organizations. We tend to look for investment opportunities that are paired with passionate founders with extensive industry expertise.

 

We find that the best customers are those who can take advantage of all of the services we provide, especially those businesses we already have an equity stake. By bringing all of a business' needs under one team, we can help reach goals more quickly through internal conversation and communication.

Not every business needs a long-term consulting engagement. Sometimes, you just want to jump-start change or focus energy on a new initiative. Our Summit Sessions are perfect 1 to 2-day opportunities to have our team guide these discussions and create concrete, actionable goals at the conclusion.
