Brookings marketing agency

Marketing for South Dakota’s innovation town.

Brookings is home to South Dakota State University, and much of its economy grows from that campus, from the Research Park at SDSU to Daktronics, the scoreboard and digital display maker founded here. Manufacturing and ag science add depth, while Main Avenue and McCrory Gardens give the town its charm. We help Brookings brands think bigger.

A referral from ToolCASE became a 20+ page custom WordPress rebuild for a national credit-union core provider: Partners directory, Events hub, Resources and a CMS a small marketing team can run, delivered within budget.

Marketing, Web, Creative, Email

ToolCASE’s outsourced marketing team: two websites, a steady thought-leadership pipeline on the fraud beat, email programs, enriched prospect lists, pitch decks and trade-press strategy that has Credit Union Times editors keeping Sam in mind as a source.

Brand Services, Web, Email & SMS, SEO

Three years as the marketing team: a collateral redesign, a rebuilt benadvance.com, 20+ association resource centers and a Mailchimp program whose engaged-broker segment opens at 47–50%. Resource-center traffic went from near zero to 15,800+ pageviews.
