Local Entrepreneur Launches Direct Marketing Consulting Firm

Seeks to Help Local Service Businesses Drive Profits

  • Tuesday, March 18, 2014

Local entrepreneur best known for his ownership of a remodeling company and political consulting work is launching a direct marketing consulting firm in the Scenic City. 

“Local residential, B2B, and professional service firms tend to be really good at what they do but often ineffective when it comes to acquiring new customers," said Brandon Lewis, owner of Service Growth Group.  "There are a lot of marketing firms out there that specialize in fuzzy objectives like brand image, social engagement, and impressions – we focus on making your phone ring or your email inbox fill up with requests for consultations.” 

After selling his home services company, Painter Ready, that Mr. Lewis grew to over $1 million in small ticket sales with 20 associates despite launching during the housing melt-down, Mr. Lewis spent several months wrapping up a political project but has now turned his full attention toward this new endeavor. 

“I love developing systematized methods that allow people to solve their problems," said Mr. Lewis.  "That’s why I wrote the eBook 11 Reasons Service Companies Stop Growing which people can download for free at www.ServiceGrowthGroup.com.” 

Mr. Lewis says that most service businesses experience a slowdown in sales and profitability in years five and seven, but are often unable to account for it or improve their situation without outside marketing and advertising assistance.  Mr. Lewis’ firm hopes to provide that much needed assistance.

“The fact is I have never picked up a paint brush and still couldn’t make a living as a painter doing the work myself, but I have a thorough understanding of marketing and advertising from an educational, real-world, and personal development perspective. That’s what it takes to become a category leader in your local market,” concluded Mr. Lewis.
