How We Do Marketing

Our purpose transcends traditional marketing. We’re driven by a deep-seated belief in humanity and that authentic connections can transform lives and reshape our world. Your vision is our mission. We’re here to develop and connect people and their ideas through strategies that are as genuine as they are effective. Whether it’s turning challenges into triumphs or building relationships one idea at a time, we are committed to creating a future where every interaction matters.

We believe that when you strip away the hype and focus on the real Why behind your business, you unlock the power to truly connect. At the core of our work is the commitment to authenticity, driven by values and the relentless pursuit of growth. This isn’t about superficial strategies; it’s about transforming how you live, lead, and inspire others.

Our Core Values:

  • Design & Branding

    We believe that true success begins with being real. By embracing who you are, we help you shine—no pretenses, just honest, compelling storytelling.

  • Websites:

    Every person is unique and valuable. We prioritize empathy, compassion, and respect, knowing that genuine human connection is the cornerstone of lasting impact.

  • Digital & Social Media

    Our strength lies in unity. We cultivate collaboration and shared growth because we know that together, we can achieve far more than any one individual alone.

  • Local & Networking

    Challenges are opportunities in disguise. We inspire resilience and optimism, lighting the way forward even during life’s toughest moments.

  • Multi-Media Project Development:

    Never settle. We continuously explore new ideas, challenge conventional thinking, and push the boundaries of what’s possible to keep your brand dynamic and relevant.

Website Packages & Strategic Development

We specialize in professional, story-driven, development-first websites. Every build is designed to align your digital presence with your real-world operations. Whether you’re launching a new brand or cleaning up a mess someone else made, we help you turn your site into a growth tool—not a headache.

We’re known for our single-page website package as a powerful starting point for new or evolving businesses: focused, clean, and ready to convert. From there, we scale as your systems grow.

  • SEO That Evolves:

    We build with long-term discoverability in mind—structured to work with both how people search and how AI scrapes.

  • Conversion Strategy:

    Your site is mapped to user behavior—CTAs, lead magnets, funnels, and visual flow are all intentional.

  • Professional Design + Copy:

    We bring design and language together to create something visually compelling and strategically sound.

  • Backend Infrastructure:

    We build out the tech stack behind the site so it actually supports your business—forms, automations, analytics, and integrations.

Our builds aren't just “launched.” They’re aligned—with your business model, your goals, your audience, and your growth path.

Our Authentic Marketing Philosophy

Team-Driven Collaboration:

We believe the power of authentic relationships is unlocked when we work together. Our approach puts people first—merging the diverse insights of our team and our clients to create solutions that are greater than the sum of their parts. Your vision is amplified through shared passion and purpose.

Storytelling Strategy

Every brand has a narrative, and at Stigma, your story is the heart of your strategy. We craft messaging that reflects your true identity, ensuring that each campaign, design, and digital initiative resonates with authenticity. By focusing on the genuine elements of your journey, we create marketing that feels natural and compelling.

Integrated & Flexible

Our process seamlessly blends creative design, digital innovation, and personal development to fill in big-picture plans and gaps. This integrated framework allows us to adapt to different needs, evolving market dynamics, and shifting challenges, ensuring that our strategies remain value-based and effective over time.

Intentional Organic Growth

Embracing a growth mindset means nurturing progress that is sustainable and genuine. We focus on cultivating long-term success through deliberate, people-first strategies that prioritize authentic relationships and measurable, real-world results. Our commitment is to build your brand slowly and steadily, ensuring that every step forward is rooted in purpose and integrity.

"What does your name mean?"

STIGMA is about the ideas that get in the way of good ideas.

"Stigma" isn’t just a name—it’s a challenge. People and businesses get held back by labels, assumptions, and limiting beliefs. We exist to help people break through those barriers, own their narrative, and redefine their identity on their own terms. The story we tell and the way we tell it matters.

"...and the Llamas?"

It's about the ideas that get in the way of good ideas.

We loved llamas before it was cool. Llamas are resilient, adaptable, personal, and unapologetically weird. They’re a reminder that branding and marketing don’t have to be boring, safe, or predictable. Like us, llamas stand out, show up, and take care of their own.

Llamas don't care if you think they're weird.

- OUR PROCESS: How Stigma Works -

A Relational, Collaborative Approach

Every partnership begins with a conversation—not a pitch, not a pre-built strategy, but a real discussion about your business, vision, culture, challenges, resources, and goals. We take the time to understand where you are and where you want to go before exploring ideas together. If there’s something Stigma Marketing & Development can do to help, we build a plan that makes sense for both of us—clear, intentional, and built for real impact.

This process ensures that every collaboration is thoughtful, strategic, and built on trust—because marketing and development should feel like a natural extension of your vision, not a forced transaction.

 

STEP 1: Connect

It all starts with reaching out and a conversation—whether that’s through a contact form, an application, or a direct conversation. No pressure, no gimmicks—just an opportunity to kick ideas around and see if it's a good fit.

 

STEP 2: BrainStorm!

We meet—either in person in Missoula or remotely—to explore your ideas, challenges, and potential solutions. Together, we clarify your vision and develop a plan that aligns with your business and available resources.

 

STEP 3: Implement

With a clear strategy and agreed-upon roles, we move forward. Work begins after the first payment, ensuring everything is structured, expectations are set, and the plan is ready to be executed effectively.

 

Let’s Talk – A Free Brainstorm

No pressure, no sales pitch—just a real conversation. Whether you’re overwhelmed by marketing, unsure how to structure your content, or just need a plan that actually makes sense, we’ll sit down, talk through the mess, and help you find clarity. No gimmicks. No catch. Just strategy, insight, and a little breathing room.

Not sure where to start? Let’s figure it out together.

Marketing FAQs

We take a relational, hands-on approach to help businesses, entrepreneurs, and organizations clarify their vision, develop sustainable marketing strategies, and create content that drives real connections. Whether you’re looking for branding, website development, consulting, leadership training, or content strategy, we focus on teaching, simplifying, and empowering so that marketing feels natural—not like a chore.

Below are some of the most common questions we get about our services, philosophy, and approach. If you don’t see what you’re looking for, reach out—we believe every great strategy starts with a conversation.

We don’t just offer marketing services—we help businesses and individuals develop, refine, and execute their ideas through a mix of strategy, branding, digital marketing, and hands-on consulting. Our services fall into three key areas:

  • Marketing & Branding: Website design, branding, social media strategy, email marketing, SEO, copywriting, and business development.
  • Training & Consulting: Leadership training, team development, strategic consulting, and marketing education to help businesses grow without relying on outside agencies forever.
  • Content & Program Development: Helping businesses, nonprofits, and entrepreneurs create structured content (blogs, podcasts, videos) and develop programs that build engagement and long-term value.

Most agencies start with marketing tactics—ads, social media, promotions—without considering if they align with a business’s actual strengths. We do the opposite.

Our Upside-Down Marketing Engine starts with real business and authentic service. Instead of forcing external marketing strategies, we look at what’s already working inside your business—your relationships, expertise, content, and culture—and turn that into organic, sustainable marketing that grows naturally.

This model erases the gap between what you do and how you market yourself, making marketing feel like an extension of your work instead of a separate, overwhelming task.

 

We work with people and businesses who care about doing things differently. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, nonprofit leader, creative, coach, or small business owner, our goal is to help you clarify your message, develop your brand, and build marketing strategies that feel natural.

We’ve worked with:

  • Coaches & Consultants refining their programs and building strong personal brands.
  • Startups & Small Businesses creating sustainable marketing and branding foundations.
  • Nonprofits & Social Initiatives building long-term content strategies that amplify their impact.
  • Faith-Based Organizations navigating modern branding, engagement, and community building.

 

Yes! Marketing is only part of what we do. We also help businesses develop their leadership, internal communication, and team marketing skills so they don’t have to depend on outside agencies forever.

We provide:

  • One-on-one leadership coaching for business owners, pastors, and executives.
  • Workshops & training for marketing teams to become self-sufficient.
  • Consulting on team structure, operations, and brand communication.

We believe marketing isn’t just external—it starts with how your team operates, communicates, and shares your message.

Yes, but not in the way most agencies do. We don’t just churn out social media posts—we help businesses create meaningful, evergreen content that builds long-term brand authority.

That includes:

  • Blogs, podcasts, and video content that showcase expertise and drive organic engagement.
  • Educational and training programs that turn a company’s knowledge into structured, scalable content.
  • Messaging frameworks that help businesses consistently communicate their story across platforms.

We focus on quality over quantity—helping businesses build content that remains valuable long after it’s created.

We don’t chase vanity metrics like followers or clicks. Instead, we measure:

  • Authentic engagement—Are the right people interacting with your content and brand?
  • Growth in relationships—Are you building meaningful connections that translate into customers, partners, or opportunities?
  • Long-term sustainability—Are our strategies making marketing easier for you, not harder?

Because real success isn’t about algorithms—it’s about whether your business is growing in a way that aligns with your vision.

Most agencies keep clients dependent on them. We do the opposite—our goal is to train you and your team to confidently manage marketing yourself.

We do this through:

  • Marketing training sessions & workshops
  • One-on-one coaching for business owners & marketing teams
  • Custom strategy development that businesses can implement on their own

We believe in teaching, simplifying, and empowering, so marketing becomes something you understand and control. This way, we all can do more, together.

We don’t sell marketing. We develop people, brands, and ideas through authentic strategy, education, and content that actually makes an impact.

What makes us different?
We focus on relationships, not transactions.
We train clients to own their marketing, not rely on us forever.
We start with who you are, not just what you sell.
We believe in marketing that feels natural, not forced.

If you’re tired of gimmicks, feeling stuck, or don’t know how to market yourself in a way that actually fits your values, Stigma Marketing & Development was built for you.
