SJM Digital Consulting

Positioned in Chicago and working with local service contractors, restaurants and bars, and premium e-commerce brands, SJM Digital Consulting is a small digital marketing consultancy operating with a team of 1-10. The agency describes itself as serving businesses seeking to move beyond commodity-level positioning toward premium client acquisition, targeting sectors such as contractors and architects, fine dining and hospitality venues, and luxury or high-ticket online retailers. Its stated aim is to replace inconsistent or unmeasured marketing spend with structured, trackable systems. The agency's declared services span SEO, paid search, paid social, email and SMS marketing, website build, CTV advertising, conversion rate optimization, A.I. implementation, tracking and reporting, and growth strategy planning, alongside Google Maps and local listings work. Its stated methodology follows a staged framework, beginning with an "Infrastructure" phase covering analytics setup, CRM integration, conversion optimization, technical SEO, and marketing automation. This is followed by a "Trust" phase involving premium website development, listings management, online reviews strategy, and reputation management, and an "Active Search" phase focused on Google Ads management, SEO, local search work, competitor analysis, and keyword strategy. Pricing is structured around options including bucket-of-hours contracting, a lead generation system, e-commerce advertising packages, and a restaurant-specific revenue package. The site also references case studies and blog resources as part of its client-facing materials.
