Brian was there for us when we had just a few days to put together a complex proposal for a P3 bridge replacement project we were bidding that involved detailed technical and financial plans. As a contractor, we had no experience in putting together the marketing and narrative pieces that the proposal required. Brian not only walked us through the process, he helped us put together a complete and professional looking proposal. His extensive experience and knowledge of construction and engineerin…

I was looking for an effective and precise way to market my new Black Splitter log splitting products to potential customers and that’s exactly what I got with Fraley Construction Marketing. Brian exceeded my expectations by suggesting a project application story instead of a standard new product press release, and identifying and getting it published in at least six industry trade publications. I will be doing more marketing projects with Brian in the future.

We found Brian and his team easy to work with and they did an outstanding job on our website. Brian offered editorial work when needed and his team put together a great layout and format for our site. Once we decided to get serious with the content, our site came together quickly and now we have a more professional representation of Earth Engineering on the Internet. I highly recommend Fraley Construction Marketing for anyone involved in the engineering or construction industry who wants someone…

Fraley Construction Marketing shared our willingness to challenge the status quo and brought to the table industry-specific knowledge.

We knew Fraley Construction Marketing had some larger clients and we are much smaller in terms of revenue and operations. However, Brian welcomed us as a client and we’ve never felt any less important than the big companies. We are good at delivering our construction services, but not so much with marketing them.  Brian’s advice is always sound and from the heart.  We consider him an equal part of our operation.

Fraley Construction Marketing provides us with a diverse mix of marketing services. It’s a cost-effective alternative to having a full-time marketing director. Most importantly, Fraley offers a thorough understanding of our needs as a civil engineering and surveying firm.

Fraley Construction Marketing has achieved incredible results in our company’s marketing efforts. Brian has taken our social media and press releases from zero to overwhelming.
