ABOUT US
growing your brand through data.
about us
It all started back in 2016, when our founder Sarah was a student at Skidmore College, doing research about why small restaurants were struggling on social media. Spoiler alert: most didn’t have time, budget, or strategy. That research led to a business, and LocalMarke LLC was born. Fast forward through six years in the auto industry, where Sarah learned everything there is to know about data, branding, and everything digital. In 2023, she relaunched as Wave Marketing Co., a modern agency built for brands that want to grow, stand out, and actually use data to build their brand and reach their goals. We're based in Niskayuna, NY, with clients all across Upstate New York and Sarasota, Florida. We’ve helped over 100+ businesses get clear conversion-driven marketing and increase revenue.
why work with us?
Because we’re not your average marketing agency and we’re proud of it! At Wave Marketing Co., we blend data with a whole lot of creativity (and caffeine or bubble tea). We know the algorithms, but we also know what actually makes people stop scrolling. We’re a small team who becomes an extension of your brand, whether you're a taco truck or a luxury spa. No cookie-cutter strategies. We believe every brand is unique and different. We take the time to learn about you AND your brand. Just results-driven marketing that feels like you. We’re fun to work with, honest, and always ready with a new idea (or a killer meme). If you're tired of agencies that talk big but ghost you by week three, come try Wave with our 15 minute response times to any and all client communication.
