Balcom Agency is an independent, full-service advertising agency with a national footprint and offices in Fort Worth, Texas. Email is one of many things we do to push our clients toward iconic. While we can work with any email provider, Mailchimp usually offers the most flexibility for our clients. Any savings we get through this partnership, we pass on to you. Comprehensive email services • List building and management • Strategy – content, targeting, personalization and scheduling to support your business goals • Creative – writing, design, animation and more, including proofreading and other quality controls • Optimization – tracking opens and clicks, and potentially A/B testing to see what works best for your audience • Compliance with the CAN-SPAM Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act Case study: Mrs. Renfro's The seventh-largest salsa brand in the United States, Mrs. Renfro’s is a Fort Worth-based, third-generation family business. We’d recently built them a new website (which helped decrease cart abandonment by 49% and increase average order value by 23%). But a site alone can’t keep customers engaged, so we added an email campaign to engage them during the holidays, when cooking and gift-giving are top of mind. Our Google Analytics research revealed that while nearly 70% of people who visit a MrsRenfros.com recipe also added products to their cart, only 8% of site traffic was going to the recipes. This insight fueled our five-email series that primarily promoted recipes, as well as bundles and gift cards, for stressed gift-shoppers. Results: The project more than paid for itself and set the stage for future sends. • 321 purchases prompted directly from the emails • $11,895 in sales • 21%-45% open rates (compared to the industry average of 20%) Full-service integration • Branding & Marketing • Website Design & Development • Social Media Marketing • Public Relations • Video & Photography Production • Digital Marketing & Analytics • Media Planning & Buying • Consulting & Culture Building The Balcom difference: We understand the uncertainty that comes with the need to push the limits. But we don’t let it stop us. Or you. At every opportunity, from creative to media, we provide you with two ways to push: the Step & the Leap. You decide how far you’re willing to go. As long as you’re going UP. We push. You rise.

STOP CHASING CUSTOMERS AND START ATTRACTING! If you’re constantly pushing, posting, promoting, and persuading just to get attention, something is misaligned. We help ambitious founders shift from chasing to attracting. From noise to clarity. From scattered tactics to strategic momentum. When your positioning is right, your message is sharp, and your offer is built around real customer desire, marketing stops feeling forced. The right people lean in. They understand your value. They move. We transform bold ideas into iconic, market-ready brands that draw customers in with precision and authority. Not hype. Not gimmicks. Not guesswork. Just strategy, psychology, and disciplined execution. How We Make It Happen Strategic Consulting We clarify your growth vision and align your brand with the customers who are already looking for what you offer. Brand Architecture We build the structural foundation of your brand so everything works together, from messaging to market positioning. Customer Engagement We design customer journeys that create connection, trust, and long-term loyalty. Direct Response Advertising Accountable, performance-driven campaigns engineered to generate measurable ROI. Design & Innovation Creative rooted in human behavior and real consumer insight, not trends for the sake of trends. Strategic Content Creation Messaging and content that attracts, persuades, and converts at every stage of the funnel. If you’re ready to stop chasing and start building a brand that pulls customers toward you, JWALKER Marketing is your strategic growth partner.

A passionate full-stack web-Agency, we enjoy leading our clients through the process, starting with strategy and concept, design to implementation and maintenance. Think. Design. Develop. Established in 2007, we are a team of passionate specialists in terms of internet technologies, supporting our clients in developing digital solutions. Our expertise ranges from strategy and conceptual consulting to design and development of sophisticated websites and applications as well as online marketing, search engine optimization and social media. Philosophy We focus on pushing towards an ongoing progress of the digital strategy, together with our clients. Yes, we are an award-winning partner, but really – we want to concentrate on what’s the most important: Concept & Strategy The core of a successful project is the joint creation of its requirements and goals. Who is the target audience? What’s the added value for users? What challenges in terms of content and technology needs to be mastered? Design, Interaction & UI We live “content first” – i.e. we like to work in a form follows function way, much rather than the other way around. The usage of web standards and responsive concepts empower users to experience optimised usability across all platforms. Development & Maintenance No question, we are technology-junkies. However, we don’t want to force “that one solution” down our clients’ throats; we put big emphasis on choosing the best tool for whatever task needs to be tackled. We call ourselves “technology agnostic”. That being said, we emphasise on using proven tools, focussing on TYPO3, Shopware, Drupal, WordPress, Laravel as well as Magento. Partnerships are a big part of our strength. Amongst others, we partner with TYPO3, Brevo, Drupal, Magento, Mollie and Sendcloud, as well as – obviously – MailChimp. Studio Mitte & MailChimp We're already catering to a number of different clients – from very small shops to multi-national clients. While we also consult in online marketing and MailChimp integration questions specifically, we like to dive in and develop a strategy together with our clients. Why Studio Mitte? We emphasise on seeing eye to eye with our clients and focus on long term relationships. We jokingly call ourselves the web fire brigade. Why is that, you ask? Good question … On a regular basis we get called into existing setups and projects, to get the processes unstuck and get the project across the defined finish line. We’d love to hear about your ideas and challenges!
