Who We Are

Today, we strive to bring those same high standards to marketing efforts across the promotional products industry. We want to hold vendors accountable to their results, and drive engagement through unique, eye catching content. We deliver marketing solutions that transform brands and grow businesses. We look forward to joining you on your journey whether you need a tour guide for the day, or a sherpa for the long haul.

Did you ask what industries we service?

We started in promotional products, and like everyone that enters the space, never left. We moved over to meeting planning, because it seemed like a natural fit. That connected us to hotels and convention bureaus. Through those hotels and meetings we ending up connecting with organizations within law enforcement, automotive, real estate, and athletics.

Why Choose Us?

Not Outsourced
We take pride in doing all of our work in-house. We don’t offer services that we cannot fulfill ourselves. Our employees work directly on all of the projects we take on. Each of our team members are trained and supervised from our corporate office. Every week, our entire team meets to discuss all clients we work with, analyze progress, and offer suggestions to improve.
We Listen
We strive to understand your business goals first. Then all decisions are made with those goals in mind. A shiny new web site is worthless if it doesn’t help you reach your goals. You talk, we listen… then we throw in lots of ideas for improvement.
Creativity
We don’t create concepts in a vacuum – they fit into the standards of your industry. And once we have a total picture of your company, its target audience and goals, we’ll create a detailed plan – that also includes a commitment to stay on budget and on deadline.
We Practice What We Preach
We get thousands of hits to our websites from social media and search engines. A majority of our clients find out about us online. Other companies say they provide these services, our clients trust us because we preach the need for our services and actually do it for ourselves effectively as well.

Andrea Smith

After using other email marketing services, we were really lucky to partner with Eight Legged Media. From consistent e-blast delivery to an outstanding creative and technical staff, Eight Legged brings so much more to the table than cookie-cutter solutions. And with their dashboard tracking tools, we know that not only are our emails cutting through the clutter, but our messages are hitting home with recipients.
