Frequently asked questions - marquette, mi
Do i need to be in marquette for us to work together?
1
Nope. We work remotely with all of our clients, which means we can be as hands-on as you need without either of us needing to drive anywhere. Video calls, email, Slack — whatever works for you.
what kind of marquette businesses do you work with?
2
All kinds. We have a soft spot for UP businesses in outdoor recreation, tourism, trades, and retail — but if you're a small business owner in the Marquette area who needs better marketing, we're probably a good fit.
how is sisu different from other marketing agencies?
3
Most agencies either lock you into a single service or hand you off to a subcontractor. We don't do either. You work directly with an experienced marketer, your plan adapts as your business does, and we keep things clear and jargon-free.
how much does it cost to work with sisu marketing?
4
Our retainers start at $1,000/month, but we build flexible, a-la-carte packages all the time - just ask! We like to make sure you're only paying for what you actually need.
do you offer one-time projects or only retainers?
5
Most of our engagements are 6-month retainers, but we're happy to talk through what makes sense for your situation. Reach out and we'll figure it out together.
