Case study · Independence Ranch

Full-stack marketing that scaled hunter demand—and the business.

Independence Ranch—positioned as the largest hunting ranch in North America—was a multi-year engagement. I owned the marketing stack end to end: Google Ads, Facebook Ads, SEO, websites, SMS, email, and related programs tied to how the ranch sold hunts.

~3× revenue · ~24× organic over four years

The problem

A destination hunting business needed deep ownership of acquisition and the digital layer—not a vendor who touched one channel once a month.

What I owned

I owned the marketing stack for years: paid Search, paid social, SEO, websites, SMS, email, and programs aligned to ranch sales.

What was done

  • Demand that filled the calendar

    Marketing drove strong hunter demand. The stated business outcome from this engagement: roughly 3× revenue, with enough momentum that the owner acquired another ranch.

  • Full-stack ownership

    Google Ads, Facebook Ads, SEO, websites, SMS, and email were one operator’s responsibility across a multi-year stretch—not siloed channel hobbies.

  • Organic foundation

    LinkedIn / site-documented organic traffic grew roughly 24× over four years with top-ranking keywords—the search foundation underneath the paid and CRM work.
