Marketing Help Starts Here
Appletree Advertising is a resource for small businesses.
We can provide the elements you need to complete your marketing projects or find a solution to advertising challenges. I work with businesses that market to the consumer or to other businesses. Our goal is to help you get your project DONE.
Do you need to design or update your website, organize a plan for social media, or create printed materials like business cards? You have landed in the right place!
Helping busy people is what we do.
Just like many small business owners, I wear a lot of hats. After 25 years in business, I have had many “experiences” that have built my treasure trove of marketing knowledge! Bring me your questions and challenges, and let’s explore how we can market your business.
What happens during our first consultation?
You should know upfront, we will have questions! We need to have an understanding about your business service or product in order to help you position yourself to attract the business you want. We will not take on projects without communication, it is just not beneficial to either of us.
- Design websites from scratch
- Evaluate your current website and make a plan of action for better organic ranking

COMPANY PHILOSOPHY
To help the business owner who needs promotional materials or is looking to create more revenue or higher profits for their business with marketing campaigns. Graphic design is one of the tools we use, along with creative thinking and research knowledge, to help the businesses we work with stand out and have a better response rate for their marketing efforts.
Not every business needs to run google ads! We are happy to discuss all the options for reaching your target market, and the related cost comparisons.
