I help mission-driven teams develop people-first marketing programs, building engaged communities that champion your mission and drive meaningful, measurable impact.

Hi, I'm Anthony Ashley. I help Christian nonprofits and other mission-driven teams build compelling brands, develop winning marketing programs, eliminate technical debt, and solve strategic problems.

As a leader, I love developing talent, removing roadblocks, and empowering teams of self-starters.

Organizations I work with see dramatic growth in audience size, audience engagement, marketing ROI, and revenue.

Being real here: I think putting the meaning and heart back in marketing, brand, product development, vocation, just makes for happier people–colleagues and audiences–because no one likes nihilistic, soulless work and everyone loves a good story.

Connect With Anthony.

Core Competencies

I maintain a balance of strategic perspective and technical expertise with a wide range of experience.

Brand Strategy - How do we ascertain the set of perceptions of the business, its products, and services, which are held by all stakeholders both internal and external? How do we identify and close the gap between our aspirations and the reality experienced at various brand touch points?

Content Strategy - How do we use the right channels and media to consistently deliver value to our audience so they subscribe, grant trust, and are accessible and amenable when the next CTA is delivered? How do we go from "paycheck-to-paycheck" marketing to building marketing assets that provide compounding interest for the business?

Digital Strategy - How do we pursue our mission/vision while prioritizing customer experience and UX, communicating the brand with fidelity, understanding and paying down technical debt while simultaneously adapting to the modern technological landscape, and innovating product development/delivery with winsome marketing?
