Atomicdust Named Best Marketing Firm in St. Louis for Fourth Year
St. Louis Small Business Monthly’s annual Best in Business guide recently recognized Atomicdust as Best Marketing Firm in their 2015-16 issue.
Every year, the guide showcases top companies in 12 key categories, from Best in Reliability, to Best in Quality, to Best Law Firm, to our favorite: Best Marketing Firm. We were previously listed among the Best Marketing Firms in St. Louis in 2011, 2012 and 2013 (and named a Best Web Firm in 2014). Each time we received the news, we cheered, we high-fived, and we did what every humble marketing agency would do – we blogged about it.
Well, here we are again. Atomicdust is honored to receive another nod from St. Louis Small Business Monthly’s annual Best in Business guide – and to have come out on top for the second time.
In an interview with SBM, Atomicdust Partner/Creative Director Mike Spakowski revealed all of his secrets – or at least his advice for other business owners, as well as the smartest move he’s made with Atomicdust in the past year.
Mike told SBM that as a leader, it’s your role to look six months into the future. “Once you stop looking toward the future and where you want your business to be, you will find yourself on autopilot – stuck working in the business, rather than on the business.”
As for his smartest business move, Mike shared our decision to part with a client whose culture was negatively impacting our own. Maintaining positive, effective teamwork internally comes first. Without that, there’s no future for the business – no cheering, no high-fives, and nothing to blog about.
In the Best Marketing Firm section, Atomicdust was accompanied by finalists Brick47 Marketing, Boxing Clever, MSW Marketing and Stealth Creative, as well as a list of 27 other firms excelling in the industry.
Congratulations to all the 2015-2016 Best in Business winners and finalists!
