About Armbar Marketing

At Armbar Marketing, we’re not your typical marketing agency. We’re a lean, scrappy, data-driven team built specifically for small business domination — and we’re proudly based in San Diego, CA.

We’ve worked behind the scenes for national brands, but our passion lies in helping the little guys punch above their weight. Whether you’re a gym, contractor, wellness pro, or family-run business — we exist to give you big-agency results without big-agency bloat.

Why We Exist

Most agencies either overcharge small businesses, or they treat them like an afterthought. Not us.

We believe that:

Local businesses deserve elite-level marketing
Data should guide every decision
You should never wonder where your money is going

That’s why we offer flat-rate packages, easy reporting, and a real human you can text if things ever feel unclear.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of businesses do you work with?

We specialize in helping small, local, service-based businesses — think gyms, contractors, wellness providers, med spas, and home service pros. If you’re based in San Diego or nearby (or operate nationally but think like a local), we’re likely a great fit.

How long does SEO take to work?

Great question — and the honest answer is: it depends. Most of our clients start seeing traction within 60–90 days, but real compounding growth tends to hit around the 4–6 month mark. We offer quick wins early on, but we always build for the long haul.

Do I have to sign a long-term contract?

Nope. Our plans are month-to-month because we believe results should earn your trust — not contracts. That said, we do work off 6-month roadmaps to ensure strategic execution and growth.

What’s included in your $399/month starter plan?

Our starter plan covers the essentials:

Local SEO optimization
Google Business Profile support
Keyword strategy
Technical fixes
Reporting dashboard access
Perfect for solo operators or small teams looking to get found fast without overspending. You can always scale up when you’re ready.

Can you manage my ads or social media too?

Absolutely. We run high-ROI Google & Meta ad campaigns and offer done-for-you social content + automation. Whether you need leads now, or want to stay top-of-mind long-term, we can help.

How It Works.

No-Cost Consultation

Research

Step 1:

We start with a free deep dive into your current marketing efforts. We analyze what’s working, what’s missing, and where opportunities exist. This phase can take up to two weeks, depending on the complexity of your business—at no cost to you.

Research & Strategy Development

Step 2:

We work closely with you to determine which services or products you want to prioritize and grow. From there, we develop a comprehensive 6-month strategy focused on increasing visibility, improving conversions, and maximizing ROI.

Identify Quick-Win Opportunities

Step 3:

Before executing the full plan, we fix immediate issues that are wasting marketing dollars. These may include low-hanging SEO optimizations, ad inefficiencies, website tweaks, or reputation improvements to get you instant traction.

Full Plan Execution

Step 4:

We systematically roll out the custom strategy we built for you, which can include:
✔️ SEO optimizations
✔️ Google Business Profile improvements
✔️ Workflow automation
✔️ Google Ads & Meta Ads optimizations
✔️ Landing pages & lead magnet creation
✔️ Content strategy (blogs, case studies, etc.)
✔️ Networking & partnership opportunities

Monitor, Optimize & Scale

Step 5:

We don’t just set it and forget it. We track performance, analyze data, and adjust based on real-time results. Whether it's scaling ad campaigns, improving conversion paths, or identifying new growth channels, we keep pushing forward until you dominate your space.

🚀 The result? Your business goes from struggling to scaling with a proven, data-backed approach. Ready to get started? Let’s talk.

Proof Is In The Pudding.
(What does that even mean? Idk but we got it.)

The client was solely dependent on referrals, which, while effective in the short term, isn’t a sustainable growth strategy. We developed a targeted plan to rank for their most profitable keywords and implemented a structured six-month strategy to transform their online presence from invisible to industry leader.
