PROJECT OVERVIEW

Why they partnered
with Asterisk

Carley Stenson started working with Asterisk Marketing in 2023 to grow her lead pipeline and streamline marketing efforts. Prior to joining Asterisk, she had worked with another marketing company running mostly Facebook ads. While they generated a lot of leads, the quality was poor, with many fake emails, numbers, and unmotivated prospects. She was looking for a proactive partner to create targeted campaigns that consistently generate high-quality leads, freeing up time to focus on client relationships and closing deals.
