We believe that with passion, grit, and the right marketing tools, every woman can achieve success on her own terms.
“We believe every small business deserves access to high-quality, creative marketing services in alignment with their values and goals.” – Dr. Samantha Dean, Founder + CEO
Our Mission: What We Do & How We Do It
At AD Creations Marketing, we empower female-founded e-commerce businesses to grow their businesses, exceed their goals, and create something beautiful they are proud to share with the world. How? By providing affordable, effective, and ethical marketing services tailored to the needs of each client.
AD Creations Marketing combines the data-driven strategy, high-quality results, and team support you’d expect from a large marketing agency with the welcoming atmosphere, open communication, and transparency you get from a small business.
Our clients reap the benefits of increased brand visibility and time saved while knowing their marketing is in safe hands. We tailor our services to each business owner’s vision, values, and goals so their marketing plan is as unique as they are. With the time they save, they are available to love on their customers as only they can, explore new ideas, and positively impact the world.
Our Vision: Why We Do It
We envision a world where female business owners are empowered to accomplish their goals and achieve their dreams. We partner with badass women leaders and take marketing off their plates so they can grow, thrive, and build their legacy. We live out our mission so they can live out theirs.
“We are on their side. We are on their team. I want to give them a high-five or a hug when they accomplish their goals. Wherever we are, I want to be able to celebrate with them like ‘YES! You did it!’” – Dr. Samantha Dean, Founder + CEO
Everything we do is grounded in transparency, integrity, and collaboration. These are the values this agency was built on. You may not associate the word “transparency” with marketing and we get it. We’re also here to change that.
At AD Creations Marketing, you will always know what’s happening in your marketing plan. You will know where every dollar of ad spend is going and the results from each campaign. We believe in honest, ethical marketing. It’s integrity in action and leads to the best results. At the end of the day, your business is just that – yours. You deserve a marketing plan you can understand and a say in the things that matter most to you. You deserve a partner who helps carry out your mission so you can grow, thrive, and accomplish your goals. At AD Creations Marketing, that is the outcome we set out to achieve for our clients every single day.
Founder + CEO
Dr. Samantha Dean
Hey there!
I’m Dr. Samantha Dean, but you can call me Sam.
I founded AD Creations Marketing to bring affordable & ethical marketing services to women-led small businesses and non-profits. I’m a doctorally prepared data scientist with deep roots in both academia and marketing.
What’s that mean for you?
It means your marketing strategy is backed by research. It means raw metrics have been transformed into something beautiful that you can understand and follow. Ultimately, it means results.
I envision a world where female entrepreneurs are empowered to grow, thrive, and impact the world in the most beautiful ways. By living out my mission, I get to help them fulfill theirs. And, lucky for me, I get a front-row seat to celebrate with them when they do!
In addition to being an agency owner, I’m an advocate for federal parolees, author, educator, cancer survivor. I love the life I’ve built in my hometown, St. Louis, MO. This city is a beautiful mix of history and undeniable potential. I’m proud to call it home. I volunteer my time at local non-profits such as Girls on the Run, Duo Dogs, and Needy Paws Rescue to play a small part in the big impact they are making in our community.
With this business, and in every facet of my life, I aim to create a positive impact. I want to partner with the changemakers and make this world better than we found it. At AD Creations Marketing, I get to do this each day alongside my team and our clients.
If you are looking for an affordable, ethical marketing agency to support you and your dreams, I can’t wait to welcome you home.
Here’s to making something beautiful together!
Thank you for taking the time to learn about my business. I hope to hear from you soon!
Sam
