MARKETING CONSULTANT MAINE-FOR SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS WHO ARE DONE GUESSING
Clarity Before Action.
Most marketing doesn’t fail because of effort.
It fails because of misalignment.
I’m Curtis Roberts — Marketing Consultant Maine — and I help small business owners stop wasting budget and start making decisions that actually fit their business. The Clarity G.R.O.W. Session starts at $250. We start with a 20-minute Fit Call.
Sound familiar?
You’ve spent money on a website. Maybe ads. Maybe social media. Maybe a rebrand. Some of it works. Some of it doesn’t. Most of it, you can’t tell.
You’re getting calls from marketing vendors every week and you have no idea who to trust. You’re about to spend more — on a campaign, a hire, an agency — and something tells you to slow down. Marketing Consultant Maine.
That instinct is right.
The problem usually isn’t execution. It’s six questions most businesses skip before they ever spend a dollar:
- What is our capacity for growth right now?
- Who exactly are we targeting?
- What decision are we asking them to make?
- What problem are we solving for them?
- What makes us meaningfully different?
- How will we measure results?
When those answers are unclear, execution becomes expensive. Messaging becomes inconsistent. Results become unpredictable.
of marketing budgets are wasted due to unproductive activity.
Clarity is the multiplier.
I’m Curtis Roberts — a Maine-based marketing mentor with 40 years of experience, from Chicago direct mail agencies to national accounts at MCI to local market execution at the Portland Press Herald and Staples in Falmouth.
I help small business owners pause before investing more — and ask the right questions. Not as a consultant who shows up with a slide deck. As a trusted advisor who works alongside you.
The Clarity G.R.O.W. Session is a structured 3-part process:
Sessions start at $250. Complete engagements typically range $750 – $5.000. Every engagement begins with a free 20-minute Fit Call.
