Meet Robert Anthony | Owner

We had the good fortune of connecting with Robert Anthony and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Robert, we’d love to hear more about your end-goal, professionally.
By the end of my career, my goal is to have built a successful digital marketing agency that not only thrives in helping businesses achieve their growth potential but also sets the standard for quality and innovation in the industry. I want to be recognized as a thought leader who provides strategic solutions, inspires others in the field, and creates a supportive and growth-oriented work environment. Additionally, I aim to give back to my community through mentorship and building opportunities for aspiring entrepreneurs. Ultimately, I want to be in a position where I’m proud of the positive impact my work has had on my clients, my team, and the industry as a whole.

What should our readers know about your business?
My business focuses on offering strategic web design, branding, and digital marketing. What sets us apart is our dedication to truly understanding our clients’ needs and providing customized solutions that drive real results. We don’t just build websites; we create digital experiences that resonate with their target audience and help their businesses grow.

I’m most proud of our ability to adapt and innovate quickly. We’ve developed streamlined processes and automated systems that allow us to deliver high-quality results more efficiently than ever before. Watching our clients’ success is what excites me the most—knowing that our work has a direct, positive impact on their growth.

The journey to get here wasn’t easy. I’ve faced challenges with cash flow, finding the right talent within budget, and refining our sales process. Overcoming these obstacles required patience, continuous learning, and a willingness to pivot quickly. For instance, one of the biggest game-changers was training my grandmother to help with lead generation and cold calling.

The lessons I’ve learned along the way are invaluable: the importance of building genuine client relationships, the power of persistence, and the significance of constantly improving both personally and professionally. What I want the world to know about our brand is that we are committed to delivering real value and that our passion for seeing our clients succeed drives everything we do. My story is one of perseverance, adaptability, and always striving to bring out the best in others through our work.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
If my best friend were visiting Memphis, I’d put together a mix of city life and outdoor adventure. We’d start with spending a day fishing—either heading out to Catch ’Em Lake for some good ol’ bass fishing or to our family land, where the peaceful surroundings make for a great escape from the city.

Since I train at Law School MMA, I’d invite them to the gym to watch a class or even join in if they’re feeling adventurous. It’s an awesome place to break a sweat and experience the strong community of fighters and coaches.

For those with a passion for creativity or crafts, a stop at Johnsons Fabrics https://www.johnsonsfabrics.net would be on the itinerary. With a vast selection of unique fabrics, it’s the perfect place for picking out materials or just being inspired by the beautiful textiles. It’s a great family-owned spot to support and get a true taste of Memphis’s local businesses.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I’d like to give a huge shoutout to my family, who have been my constant support system throughout my career journey. My dad, who has always been a hard worker, and my grandmother has been a huge help. I also want to acknowledge my mentors and colleagues who have guided me in growing my digital marketing business, offering invaluable advice on everything from client retention to scaling operations. Lastly, I’d like to recognize any of the individuals who work for me or have worked for me for their dedication and support in helping make my vision a reality.
