About us
Hey, we’re Marketing Bru.
“Bru” is South African for mate, the friend who’s got your back. That’s the kind of marketing partner we set out to be for service businesses around the world.
Our story
8+ years helping service businesses win more work.
We’ve spent more than eight years specialising in digital marketing for service-based businesses, helping them bring in more leads, calls and bookings.
Along the way we saw the same problem again and again: good businesses with great reviews were losing work to competitors with better websites and smarter Google marketing. Many had already paid big agencies for websites that looked fine but didn’t make the phone ring.
So we built Marketing Bru around one simple idea: a website should be your best salesperson, and every marketing dollar should be traceable to real calls and jobs. We build the website, feed it with the right traffic and show you exactly what’s working.
