    ByCathy Edison June 2, 2026June 2, 2026

    TL;DR: Why Is My Website Getting Traffic but Bad Fit-Leads?  Website traffic only matters if it brings the right people to your business.

    Your Website Is Not a Crockpot: Why “Set It and Forget It” Is a Bad Plan

    ByCathy Edison May 25, 2026May 25, 2026

    TL;DR Your website is not something you launch once and ignore. For professional services firms, government contractors, public entities, and local service businesses, your website is part of your credibility, lead generation, recruiting, and customer experience.

    ByCathy Edison May 25, 2026May 25, 2026

    How Often Should I Update My Website (and What Happens Without Website Updates)?

    ByCathy Edison March 24, 2026April 30, 2026

    ByCathy Edison March 16, 2026April 30, 2026

    Is Competition from Large, Out-of-State AEC Firms Affecting Texas Companies?

    ByCathy Edison February 4, 2026April 30, 2026

    Short answer: Yes. Texas-based architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) firms are facing increased competition from large national and global firms entering the state, creating uncertainty about project pipelines, win rates, and sustained stability. However, firms with strong local knowledge, clear positioning and early trust-building strategies still have a significant advantage, if they know how to…

    ByCathy Edison December 10, 2025February 4, 2026

    The Growing Disconnect Between Marketing and the Customer Journey

    ByCathy Edison December 10, 2025December 10, 2025

    Marketing leaders love touting omnichannel experiences. But between the ambition and reality, something essential is getting lost across the customer journey. Recent research shows this gap is more than just frustrating; it can actually be risky.

    ByAshley Walker December 5, 2025December 5, 2025

    Personalization has been a staple in modern marketing for years but new data from the Content Marketing Institute shows something important: while 91 percent of tech marketers say they personalize their content, 59 percent of those experiences still feel… basic. We’re talking “Hi, {first name}” and not much else.  And most of that personalization is happening in only one channel: email. …

    ByCathy Edison August 4, 2025August 19, 2025
