Why 25 Fathoms?

SCUBA divers are certified by depth - first open water, then advanced, and concluding with technical certifications. The deepest certification before unlimited is 25 fathoms (150 ft).

There's a parallel between diving and the work we do. First, we initially penetrate the surface, exploring what's easy and popular. Some choose to go deeper to find bigger and better things, e.g., shipwrecks, innovations, etc., but doing so requires additional training, practice, and equipment.

The deeper you go the BIGGER the PRIZE!

25 Fathoms guides companies unfamiliar with the depths of their projects or online presence to find the hidden treasure they desire: MORE time, MORE customers, MORE profit!

Testimonials

  • Rick and his team put a digital marketing plan together for us, reworked our website and LinkedIn presence and are helping us stay connected with our clients and prospects with a monthly newsletter. We'd have never gotten started without their leadership and guidance and now have an internal Marketing Manager working side by side to grow our digital marketing investment.

  • Hired these guys for a new e-commerce web site and then received a request for a 2-hour meeting...thought to myself, "what could we possibly do for two hours this early in the website design process?" Turned out to be the most productive two-hour meeting I have ever been in. These folks have a real discovery/design process. Impressive!

Manufacturers are different, but they don’t have to allow their uniqueness to be their downfall.
