Ruth's Proven Expertise

With 21 years of marketing and advertising experience — including 12 years at Prairie Mountain Media — I bring a seasoned, results-driven perspective to every project. Having grown up in Boulder, I consider this community my happy place. Although I spent some time away starting in 1990, returning home in 2014 was a dream come true. Today, I use my deep local knowledge and two decades of expertise to help my clients navigate the unique Colorado business landscape with confidence.

Local Perspective & Connection

I am conscious and intentional when creating every campaign because I understand that every business faces a unique set of goals and challenges. I deeply respect the investment you make in your brand, and I operate on the simple principle that we are a team — your success is my success. There is nothing more rewarding than the moment a client tells me their campaign produced tangible results and truly moved the needle for their business.

Strengths & Purpose

My greatest strength is acting as a seamless extension of your team — if you don’t have a marketing department, I fill that role. I pride myself on understanding your goals and crafting custom campaigns that maximize impact within your budget. I am deeply committed to the science of targeted email marketing, focusing on the precision of geo-demographic audience curation and high-converting subject lines. With clear metrics like click-through rates and high-value options — such as our $300 targeted group emails reaching 50,000 opt-in consumers — I ensure every dollar of your investment drives a tangible result.

Proven Success & Approach

In a fragmented market where consumers are constantly bombarded with information, I prioritize multi-platform solutions that meet people exactly where they are. For a recent client with a specialized home improvement service, I developed an integrated campaign designed to both educate the market and drive immediate action. We began with a strategic Search (SEM) campaign to capture high-intent users, then layered in native storytelling through a professional Business Spotlight. This featured a full-page print article and a digital package that utilized professional photography to showcase the client’s unique process. To reinforce this message, I executed a consistent print and digital ad campaign alongside targeted, home-improvement themed emails. By focusing the messaging on clear, concise “before and after” results and emphasizing a faster, more affordable alternative to full remodels, we successfully built top-of-mind awareness and turned a complex service into a compelling, easy-to-understand solution.

Beyond the Office

When I’m not in the office, I’m usually out enjoying the very best of Colorado’s seasons. You’ll likely find me exploring local trails on my bike, catching live music at an outdoor venue, or heading into the high country — July in Crested Butte to see the wildflowers is a personal favorite that I never like to miss.
