★ Our Most Powerful Service

Intent-Based
Lead Generation

Powered by Digi-data.

Most agencies wait for customers to find you. We identify them before they search. Digi-data — our proprietary lead intelligence platform — surfaces in-market buyers using real behavioral intent signals across the web.

These aren't scraped lists. These are people actively researching your service category right now — delivered directly into your Digi-dash CRM pipeline with contact info, intent score, and behavioral context.

How Digi-data Works
01 
Intent Signals Captured
Digi-data monitors browsing behavior, search patterns, and content consumption across millions of web properties — identifying people actively researching your category.
02
Leads Scored & Filtered
Raw intent data is scored by recency, frequency, and relevance. Only high-intent prospects matching your industry, geography, and buyer profile are surfaced.
03
Delivered Into Digi-dash
Qualified leads land in your CRM pipeline with contact details and context — triggering automated follow-up before your competitors know they exist.
04
Automated Nurture Activates
Email, SMS, and AI chat sequences fire automatically based on lead behavior — warming prospects until they're ready to book or buy.

Each block below is a full case study — challenge, work, and result — with numbers pulled directly from GA4, Google My Business, Facebook Professional Dashboard, and Instagram Professional Dashboard. Pull the data yourself — it's all verifiable.
Restaurants

534

Google Reviews — Most in Their Market
Challenge
A neighborhood bar & grill with loyal regulars but no marketing infrastructure — no review pipeline, no SMS list, no organic content engine, and no way to measure what was actually driving foot traffic.
Work
Built and runs the complete marketing system: review generation flows, SMS promos, monthly content calendars, paid media, Google Business Profile management, online ordering attribution, and reputation response. Operating as embedded marketing partner since 2024.
Result
534 Google reviews — the most-reviewed bar & grill in their market — with $27,969 in tracked online order revenue from organic search alone, 376K+ Facebook content views in 12 months, and an 88.6% website visitor engagement rate vs. a ~55% industry average.

★

157 Reviews · Zero Negative · Schaumburg's Most-Loved Med Spa
Challenge
A respected med spa with strong clinical results but no consistent digital strategy. Local search visibility was inconsistent, review velocity was slow, and the website wasn't converting the traffic it was already getting.
Work
Engaged as Fractional CMO since 2017. Built and maintains the full marketing stack: local SEO, Google Business Profile optimization, automated review generation, content production, paid media, email/SMS campaigns, and ongoing site conversion work. Eight-plus consecutive years of strategy and execution.
Result
157 Google reviews at a 4.8-star average with zero negative reviews — the highest-rated med spa in the Schaumburg area. 100% review response rate, 90.8% organic search engagement rate, and a fractional CMO relationship now in its ninth consecutive year.

Monthly Instagram Views — Month 8
Challenge
A new podcast launching cold with no audience, no sponsor pipeline, and no organic discovery engine — two hosts with strong content but no system to turn each episode into multi-platform reach.
Work
Producer and marketing partner from launch. Built the master content playbook that turns every episode transcript into a full multi-platform content drop: YouTube full episode, Spotify audio, Instagram reels, TikTok clips, Facebook short-form, and email — with equal host representation across every clip. Operating on minimum marketing cost as the show builds, with producer credit and revenue-share ownership stake.
Result
59,500+ monthly Instagram views by Month 8 — 84% of those views reaching non-followers (true organic discovery, not friends-and-family). +112% month-over-month growth. Four paying sponsors secured in under 8 months from a cold launch, including Muggs N Manor Bar & Grill (also an active agency client), Rebel Kitchen + Bar, and Wilderness Air Escapes.

09 — The Founder

Built by Someone
Who Actually Runs

The Business.

Johnny Arreola founded The Marketing Agency in 2013 with a clear premise: businesses of every size deserve the same quality of marketing infrastructure that enterprise brands take for granted — from neighborhood restaurants to Hollywood talent to multi-state commercial trades. Since then, we've served hundreds of businesses across web, SEO, social, email, video, CRM, and now AI-powered automation.

Johnny is also a TV and film producer with credits at NBC Studios and ABC — a PGA and DGA member who builds complex, multi-part systems on time and on budget. That discipline drives every client engagement. You're not getting someone who schedules posts. You're getting a system.
Founded 2013 —
Hundreds of businesses served across seven industries: healthcare, restaurants, entertainment, talent, trades, financial, and physical therapy — from neighborhood spots in the Chicago suburbs to multi-state and national engagements.
TV & Film Producer —
PGA & DGA member, NBC Studios and ABC credits. Broadcast production standards applied to every client engagement.
Fractional CMO since 2017 —
Renaissance Med Spa managed from strategy through execution for 8+ consecutive years.
Stroke survivor —
Johnny's personal experience in physical therapy after his 2024 stroke gives The Marketing Agency an authentic and unmatched perspective in the rehabilitation and healthcare space.

"We started in 2013 building websites and social pages for local businesses. The tools are completely different today. The principle hasn't changed: a business that runs on good marketing systems beats one that doesn't. Every single time. AI is just the newest, most powerful version of that principle."
