a refreshing change of pace

We have worked with marlo on several projects over the years and their can-do attitude combined with their level of expertise in marketing, messaging and social media has been excellent. We have partnered in both new hotel openings as well as existing hotel and restaurant bar initiatives across a number of our managed properties – everything from completely integrated marketing programs to vlog creation to social influencer engagement initiatives. And not only do they know how to market travel, but they’re fun to work with and always tell it like it is, which is a refreshing change of pace.

They were instrumental to our success

Marlo’s team played a crucial role in helping us craft the pre-opening campaign for our new campground/glampground in Kennebunkport: Sandy Pines Camping Resort. Through their energy and enthusiasm for the resort they generated an incredible amount of attention and coverage for us in our first year. They were instrumental to our success. And more importantly that same creative energy continues to support us through the third year of our partnership. We consider them to be part of the team!

someone we can trust on every level

We initially hired Marlo to re-launch Grafton Street in early 2002, quickly realizing the value she brought to all of our establishments. While the amount of editorial coverage her team is able to consistently obtain for all of our locations is impressive, the added-value that they deliver – from private parties to new business relationships to marketing and advertising – has cemented marlo marketing's importance in our business' continued growth. Knowing we have found a true marketing partner, someone we can trust on every level, is worth every cent.

Marlo has helped the Town of Provincetown in building out the content of our Tourism website, concept and create Press Kits (which have been used widely), coordinate press trips, and has done an excellent job in promoting Provincetown worldwide as a travel destination. Additionally, the editorial the town has received is extremely valuable. Marlo and team have to work with a number of personalities and have handled it professionally and gracefully.
