Grit Over Gloss. Always.
We’re a high-performance marketing team with Idahoan grit. Small, sharp, and built for businesses that care more about results than buzzwords.
Why We’re Not Like Them
Origin Story
We started Manticore because we were tired of watching good businesses get screwed. Overpriced websites. "Marketing" that goes nowhere. We knew service businesses deserved better—so we built the team that actually delivers. No fluff. No filters. Just results that make sense and money.
What we beleive
Our clients aren’t just customers—they’re partners. If you grow, we grow. But that means it’s a two-way street. You’ve got to want the win as much as we do. We’ll lead, but we expect hustle on your side too. That’s how this works.
Non-negotiables
If you don’t understand your marketing, it’s not working. Most business owners can’t explain what their agency does—and that’s a problem. We’ll never serve you jargon or hide behind “industry speak.” If you ask what we’re doing, you’ll get a clear, punchy answer. Every time.
How We Work
This isn’t a buffet. You don’t pick a little SEO and a side of social. We set the strategy because our name’s on the line, too. We lead, you move. That’s how results happen. You’re not buying a menu—you’re hiring a team that owns outcomes.
Idaho → U.S.
Started in Pocatello, Idaho. Sharpened in Boise. Now we help build service businesses across the U.S. If your marketing doesn’t work, we’ll burn it down and build something that does.
Years Team Experience
You don’t talk to a rep. You talk to the person doing the work.
You Want Results? Here’s the Math.
We brought receipts. Every number below comes from real clients, real campaigns, and real outcomes. We track everything, explain everything, and fix what doesn’t work. Simple as that.
93%
came from another agency that f*cked it up first
0%
of our clients say “I have no idea what they’re doing”
100%
Of clients stuck around (minus like 2… their loss)
346%
just because people like seeing big-ass numbers.

The changes are subtle but you’ll notice the difference… #editing #socialmedia #contentcreation #rawfootage #fyp
Nobody tells you this part when you start a business…
you’re going to spend a lot of time figuring things out as you go.
Testing.
Adjusting.
Trying something, realizing it didn’t work, then trying it again a different way.
That’s not failure.
That’s literally the process.
The people who win in business aren’t the ones who get it right the first time—
they’re the ones who keep shooting, reviewing, and improving.
Just like this.
Take the shot → look at it → tweak it → go again.
Same thing with your marketing.
Same thing with your offers.
Same thing with your systems.
You don’t need to be perfect.
You need reps.
Because every rep gets you closer.
What’s something in your business you’re still “figuring out” right now?

Small business owner reality:
You’re trying to run the business…
and market the business…
and somehow make it all look good at the same time.
Meanwhile this is what it actually looks like behind the scenes.
Messy. Loud. A little chaotic.
But it’s moving.
Here’s the part most people miss—
you don’t need a full production crew to grow.
You need to show what’s real.
The process.
The people.
The experience.
Because customers don’t just buy the product—
they buy what it feels like to be there.
So instead of overthinking your marketing,
start capturing what’s already happening.
That dinner table?
That’s content.
That behind-the-scenes setup?
That’s trust being built in real time.
Perfect isn’t the goal.
Real is.
What’s something in your business you could start showing more of right now?
