Beach Chair Marketing

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the owner of Sylvia Ho Mortgages, a mortgage company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Beach Chair Marketing?

I hired them to help with my marketing.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Beach Chair Marketing helps me post every day on three different platforms: LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram. They also create infographics and change videos into content material.

What is the team composition?

Márcio (Founder & Creative Director) is my main contact.

How did you come to work with Beach Chair Marketing?

I found them through a professional network.

What is the status of this engagement?

Our engagement with Beach Chair Marketing started in April 2020.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Beach Chair Marketing thinks outside of the box. If something doesn’t go in the right direction, Márcio tries something else. He can keep up to date with all of the marketing trends.

Each month, Márcio gives me data regarding our market direction, clicks, site visitors, and social media engagement. He also helped bring other clients together into a project where we help each other with marketing and posting.

We can look at the metrics he provides and then determine which direction to go into. The metrics help us determine what our visitors liked or didn’t like. As long as things are moving in the right direction over time, I’m good with that.

How did Beach Chair Marketing perform from a project management standpoint?

All of the project management is done through my team. Márcio is very responsive.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Márcio is very personable and communicative. He understands his stuff. He doesn’t overpromise and underdeliver.

Marketing is a fluid environment. He never sugarcoats anything and strives to set up his client expectations. He’s honest, attentive, and hardworking.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Have a chat with him. Márcio is very personable and organized. He’s up to date on the industry. His monthly reports give an idea of whether you’re heading in the right or wrong direction.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

When I worked with Beach Chair Marketing, I was at a chatbot design and development startup.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Beach Chair Marketing?

We needed a logo at an affordable price, so I spoke with Márcio (Founder & Creative Director). 

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

I’m the kind of client that knows what they want, so I told Márcio exactly what I wanted. I’m not a design specialist, so he helped me figure out some of the flaws in the designs I came up with. He recommended ideas that would help the designs appeal to a broader audience.

Along with logo design, he helped with business card and letterhead designs, Facebook banners, and email signatures.

What is the team composition?

I only talked with Márcio, but he had other people on his team working on the designs.

How did you come to work with Beach Chair Marketing?

I actually messaged him through LinkedIn, and then we realized that he had heard of me from a networking event. It was interesting that I had randomly reached out to him and that he had already known about me.

How much have you invested with them?

I roughly spent $500.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together in Fall 2019.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

I got exactly what I wanted for a solid price.

How did Beach Chair Marketing perform from a project management standpoint?

Márcio was on point with communication. He responded to everything within an hour. Nothing was ever missed. We mainly talked through email, where he would send me PDFs of the work. We did meet up now and then.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Márcio is a no muss, no fuss kind of guy. He gets the work done.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Not sure. He did everything I wanted.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Be as detailed as you can with what you want. I put in the time to figure out what I wanted so that I could tell them.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the president of ByoStraw Coatings. We’ve developed a paint that kills viruses and superbugs.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Beach Chair Marketing?

We wanted an idea of the market growth for coatings like ours. We wanted to know what we could expect for growth in Canada and the US.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

We called Beach Chair Marketing and asked if they could do some research for us. The team gave me a few charts and reports that indicated past growth and potential future growth in the US. Beach Chair Marketing primarily focused on what we could expect from revenue if we started selling our product in Canada. We told them we were looking to sell in Canada, and potentially in the US.

What is the team composition?

We worked with one person from Beach Chair Marketing.

How did you come to work with Beach Chair Marketing?

We found Beach Chair Marketing on Google. We chose them because they're Canadian and a bit smaller, so they looked like a lower-cost option for us.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent about $500 CAD.

What is the status of this engagement?

We engaged with Beach Chair Marketing in July 2025.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

Beach Chair Marketing was very helpful and had a quick turnaround time. Even though market research wasn't their primary area of expertise, the team had a background in it. Beach Chair Marketing went above and beyond.

The project was essential because we were applying for grant funding. We needed to know what kind of future this coating would have in the marketplace. The project helped us establish that there was definitely strong growth in the market, write a business plan, and better understand the market realities of this kind of product.

How did Beach Chair Marketing perform from a project management standpoint?

Our deadline was pretty flexible. We didn't have a strict deadline, but completing it within a month was preferable. Beach Chair Marketing was well within that time frame. We communicated with the team via email and Zoom.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Beach Chair Marketing was willing to help us with something they usually don't offer; that impressed me.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I can't think of anything.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Schedule a Zoom meeting with Beach Chair Marketing. That's the best way to do an initial engagement and get the most out of your consultation.
