Watch the video message from our founder for the visitors and the jury at the COMPOST 2022 conference.

This is Tim Steckel with the Compost Marketing Agency.

We are so excited to be a finalist for the Emerging Composter Challenge.

Since I can’t be with you today, stand next to our poster, and answer your questions 

I have decided to be on standby during the presentation and give you my phone number so you can call me.

It’s (216) 536-4296.

I’ll also put a link below the video. 

If you want to call me now, I’d be thrilled if I actually get to speak to you.

I’m now gonna share a bit about my background and why I founded the Compost Marketing Agency.

And then before I close this video, I will give a short overview of the marketing services that we offer.

When I was 13, I took my first HTML course; that’s the language simple websites are written in. 

When I was 15, I handed out flyers and worked to build backlinks for an eCommerce store. When I was 17, I founded a percussion Trio, became the manager and registered my first domain. We reached #1 position on google for the German word for “drumshow”. Yes, I am from Germany and migrated to the US 6 years ago.

Big corporate accounts like Volkswagen started to find and hire us. That’s when I understood the power of internet marketing.

I went on to work different positions in event marketing and eventually opened my own first marketing agency 9 years ago. 

I am also a passionate composter, I collect my neighbors food scraps in my driveway and have raised and sold composting worms locally to my community.

Last year, I decided to fuse my passion for composting with my professional background in marketing. I want to do meaningful work and have a positive impact on the environment. 

That’s why I have founded the Compost Marketing Agency.

Now, I am going to talk a little bit about what we do at the Compost Marketing Agency:

We will infuse the composting industry with innovative marketing tactics and strategies.

Each member in my team is passionate about composting and has their own area of marketing expertise that they add to our multicellular marketing organism.

Everything starts with a solid foundation in marketing, so we are going to run an analysis on your business. With those results in hand we can lay out a plan on how to move forward over the course of the next 12 months. 

We are getting to know your operation and your local market.

We are focused on digital marketing, which starts with a solid website that serves as your foundation. We connect it to Google Business, Facebook, Instagram, and other social media platforms.

But we aren’t solely a digital agency. Our mantra is to integrate digital marketing with all the things that you do offline, in the “real world”. If there is a disconnect between the two, you are losing traction and are missing out.

Our profits coaching can make a big difference on your bottom line. We are using pricing theories to evaluate your current situation and make recommendations to increase your profits.

Our SEO experts are taking care of the technical aspects that are often overlooked when a website is first built. We must never forget what a website looks like through the eyes of the search engine.

Our team assists you with the copywriting and template graphics that will ensure a consistent output for you. Remember, social media is a high speed platform and we are competing for the attention of the users. Regular content output is very important to maintain consistent organic visibility for your company.

But it doesn’t stop there.

As an augmentation of your team, an external marketing department we do more than just a website and some social media.

Marketing is about building relationships with your customers.

So we are also offering a CRM platform that serves as a hub for marketing automation and outreach programs. This tool integrates two way text communication, emails, calendar management, follow up and can even handle monthly recurring sales for you.

We understand that composting is not just about residential and commercial organic waste collection. You have a valuable end product to sell and we can establish connections to your local growers, the farmers and landscapers. 

Establishing those connections takes time and persistence. We are up against long lasting, generational habits but now the odds are in our favor and we can help you to get another field test started and you know for yourself that once the plants start growing, the results usually speak for themselves.

This was a quick overlook of our services.

Thanks for taking the time to watch the video.

I wish that you have a great rest of your day at the Compost Conference and that you enjoy the other posters.

You can reach me now during the presentation or use my calendar link to schedule a 15 minute call with me at a time that works for you. I am looking forward to speaking with you.
