The Truth About Agencies

​

Most agencies don’t care whether your business succeeds or fails. They’re not attached to your money or your vision.

​

Anybody can max out a credit card on Google Ads — and many do. The problem? They don’t care if clicks turn into contracts.

​

For most “preferred Google advertisers,” the game is simple: keep you spending. They’ll talk impressions and clicks, but never conversions — because most don’t know how to get them.

​

Agencies sell traffic.
We build revenue systems.
That’s the difference.

​

From Craigslist Ads to Authority Brands

​

Magnet Media Marketing was born from the hard lessons of building The Mobile Boat Guys — a high-end marine detailing company that grew from nothing into a recognized authority in Seattle’s recreational boating community.

​

When we started, we did what most business owners do: we hired an agency.
We paid thousands for a website, Google Ads management, and “marketing” that produced almost nothing. Six months later, we didn’t own the site, didn’t own the leads, and had no rankings to show for it.

​

At the same time, our Craigslist ads — written and posted on a shoestring budget — were producing more leads than the agency ever did.

​

That was the turning point.

​

Building Our Own Engine

​

We moved onto Wix, secured our own domain, and started learning SEO from the ground up. Alongside that, we picked up a copy of The Ultimate Guide to Google Ads (Bryan Todd, Perry Marshall, Mike Rhodes) and learned how to run paid traffic with precision — without burning through budgets.

​

Within months, our site ranked on Google’s first page. The leads followed. Even when we lost a domain, we ranked the new one again in a matter of months — proof that systems beat setbacks.

​

Over the next 10 years, we transformed a brand that didn’t exist into a recognized authority in the Seattle boating community. Not by throwing money at agencies, but by mastering the blend of:

​

• Behavioral science — understanding how buyers actually make decisions.

• SEO and content architecture — building search visibility that compounds.

• AI-driven automation — creating systems that scale without extra manpower.

 

Why MMM Exists

​

We created Magnet Media Marketing to give other high-ticket service operators what we never had: a partner who builds revenue infrastructure you own.

 

Our mission is simple:

​

• To make sure you never lose your website or your leads.

• To ensure every click — organic or paid — moves buyers closer to trust.

• To engineer systems that keep working long after you step away from the computer.

 

From Boats to Boardrooms

​

Today, we work with:

​

• Real estate investors in Las Vegas.

• Custom trades and restoration businesses.

• Operators who charge $5K+ per job or $20K+/month retainers.
   

What unites them? They already run strong businesses — but they need an inbound system as strong as their reputation.

​

That’s what we build.
