Supercharge your Marketing

your business is struggling and you’re not sure why

If your website is not converting, your marketing isn’t inspiring or you’re falling out of love with your business, it’s probably because because of one or more of 3M’s.

Your mission is defined. Your messaging isn’t clear. Or, your marketing is not converting.

we take a holistic view of your business to make it thrive on every level.

We look at things holistically to give you insights, confidence, and inspiration to take the steps toward a thriving and fulfilling business. Our process is “Inside, outside, Upside down.”

The word 'Inside' written in black cursive font.

We start with the “Why”

We uncover the reason your business exists, and how you’re only solution to solve your client's problems. With a Mission Statement, powerful One-Liner and StoryBrand Script, your teams will be aligned, and you will have a solid backbone for all your communication and marketing moving forward.

Then, we create what the world sees:

Most agencies design first, then try and fit eveything in. Once the Mission and StoryBrand are set, we build out from there and create the words, images, graphics, website, videos, funnels,  marketing materials, collateral,  emails, sales letters, and social media that will engage, enlighten and convert strangers into loyal fans.

And look to do things differently:

We take the whole picture and look at things from a completely different and unexpected POV. How can we see things from a another perspective? Where can we zag where others zig? Is there an offer, service, or rethink a product that breaks the norm for your industry? How can we be unique?

Chances are, the reason you’re not in love with your business at the moment is because your mission, messaging, or marketing is not clear and you’re not manifesting the success you want. 

If your Mission is off, it can show up in a few ways: 

  • Your work/life balance is out of harmony. 

  • You and your team are not aligned on specific financial goals.

  • You’re falling out of love with your business.

Your Messaging is confusing when: 

  • Website visitors can’t articulate what you do or why you’re different. 

  • Your website or emails are not converting into sales.  

  • Let’s not forget your visual messaging! - Your design, colors, and photography do not illustrate your premium level of service. 

Your Marketing is suffering if: 

  • Your website is not optimized to capture leads and convert. 

  • You don’t have a way to turn strangers into paying clients. 

  • You’re not manifesting success. 

Right now, you have the curse of knowledge and you’re too in the weeds to see things clearly from your client’s point of view. 

At VC-5, we look at your whole business from the inside out. Using the proven StoryBrand framework, layered with life and business coaching tools, and modern branding and design, we’ll create a flowing system where your mission, messaging, and marketing are attracting leads and converting them into loyal fans. 

Don’t spend another dollar on advertising or marketing that isn’t working. Or hiring someone to pretty up a broken website. Start on the inside, find your voice, articulate your messaging, and find inspiration and a new energy. You can fall in love with your business again and create a business that thrives on all levels.

  • "I could not be more grateful for Lee’s ability to define and creatively illustrate my firm’s value proposition to a broader audience. The services we offer are highly specialized, but Lee was able to develop themes and messaging that effectively communicate our “call to action” to potential clients in a manner that resonates. Specifically, our potential clients know they need help, but do not know where to turn. Lee’s vision helps answer that question and drive our growth."
