You run the business
we drive the leads
Two founders with agency and technology backgrounds, bringing enterprise marketing tools to local and growing businesses at a price that fits.
Why we started
Wild Forge
Tom and Ted have spent their careers working with marketing tools and technology most small businesses never get to use. We started Wild Forge Digital to change that: the automation, tracking and analysis the big players rely on, set up and run for local and growing businesses at a price that makes sense. We work in any industry, because the pain points repeat: wasted ad spend, leads that go cold, a website nobody maintains.
We aim at the customers who fit your business best, not just the most clicks
You add the value for your customers; we make sure the right people can find you
We use enterprise tools, so a small business can compete with bigger ones
Marketing still comes down to people. You know your business best; we make you easier to find.
Paid search and strategy
Tom McGlennen
CEO and co-founder
Tom has ten years of digital marketing experience building and managing websites and Google and Microsoft Ads strategies for businesses of every size. He helped his previous agency become a Google Premier Partner and a Microsoft Elite Partner.
He has worked with hundreds of businesses on performance, strategy and return on ad spend, including bringing large advertisers' returns back to three to five times.
Tom's focus is learning what makes your business unique, then using the right tools, search terms and ad management to make the most of your budget.
Marketing technology and automation
Ted Schneider
CTO and co-founder
Ted has spent two decades building technology for organizations of every size. At Wild Forge Digital he focuses on marketing technology: the tracking, automation and data analysis that show where leads came from and what they turned into.
He builds the automations behind reporting, lead follow-up and routine site checks, inside clear guidelines, with a person reviewing the results. Decisions stay with people.
He has worked with corporate teams, startups, non-profits and consulting clients across many industries, and brings that range to every business we take on.
How we work
no shortcuts
We have spent years getting good at marketing automation tools, and we want as many local and smaller businesses as possible to have that know-how working for them, so they have a real chance at more of their market.
Founders on your account. You work with Tom and Ted directly, from the first call to the monthly report.
Every industry, same discipline. The details change from business to business; the pain points repeat, and so does what makes someone click an ad or pick up the phone.
No shortcuts. We do not cut corners, and we check the work before it reaches you.
