About Appy Marketing

Helping local businesses stop losing leads and start growing since 2009

Our Mission

We believe every local business deserves to be found by the customers who need them most. Our mission is to provide simple, automated systems that fix the “leaky bucket” problems plaguing small businesses—missed calls, invisible online presence, and lack of reviews.

The Problem We Solve

Local businesses are facing unprecedented challenges. AI-powered search is reducing visibility by 68%. Customers expect instant responses 24/7. Reviews make or break reputations. Meanwhile, business owners are busy doing what they do best—serving their customers—and don’t have time to manage complex marketing systems.

That’s where we come in. We provide software-based solutions that work automatically in the background, capturing every lead, building your reputation, and keeping you visible in an increasingly competitive landscape.

Our Values 

What guides everything we do

Solutions-Focused

We don’t just identify problems—we solve them. Every service we offer addresses a real pain point that local businesses face every day.

Client-Centered

Your success is our success. We build long-term partnerships, not one-time transactions. We’re here to help you grow sustainably.

Results-Driven

We measure success by your results—more calls answered, more reviews earned, more customers walking through your door.

Why Choose Appy Marketing 

Experience, expertise, and a proven track record since 2009

15+ Years of Experience

We’ve been optimizing Google Business Profiles since 2009, long before most agencies even knew what local SEO was. We’ve seen every algorithm change and adapted our strategies accordingly.

Software-Based Solutions

Unlike traditional agencies that require constant manual work, our systems run automatically. This means consistent results without the high labor costs—and without you having to think about it.

Sustainable Partnerships

We’ve designed our services to provide ongoing value, not quick fixes. Our clients stay with us because the systems we build become essential parts of their business operations.

Attention to Detail

From claiming your GBP to responding to every review, we handle the details that make the difference between being found and being forgotten.
