Houston marketing, web & digital advertising firm

HOLD TIGHT : ) Website under RE-construction to update with all the new things we’ve been working on!

Our client experience includes a range of industries and businesses from small shops to Fortune 500 companies including top 10 home builders, fashion couture retail chains, investment bankers, multi-location restaurants, individual entrepreneurs, and most any industry you can imagine. Let us handle your branding construction and or modernization, graphics, web and apps. The only things we do not do ourselves in house are deep SEO and social advertising, and for that we have teams we’ve worked with for many years we’ll refer you to. Ad Factory is dedicated to crafting unique and “stand out in the crowd” marketing solutions by merging a unique discovery process, advertising psychology, strategy, and mad skills – usually at twice the speed of larger agencies. We are your experienced, quick and affordable Houston website design and strategic marketing solution.

A few recent items from the whiteboard:

1. An executive compensation consulting firm felt their current branding package was lacking. We augmented their brand guidelines, added color, brand patterns for web and print ad use, and reorganized their website.

2. A craft beverage company was killing it on the wholesale side, but their retail was lacking. We upgraded their branding, redesigned their website and e-commerce, and laid out a strategic marketing plan including SEO, email ads, social advertising, and paid ads to quadruple their retail sales within 5 weeks.

3. A custom home builder was getting a few calls a month from their outdated website but wanted more. In order to hone in on their target market and get the higher end clients we modernized their brand, website, and marketing materials including email and social media templates for ads.

4. We were hired by the Federal Government to setup servers, build a brand, website and develop software for GLO and HUD underrwiters to process government business grants , meeting federal security standards, data handling rules and it went live after being audited by Earnst & Young.

5. For many, many years we have been contracted by PR agencies and ad agencies as backup for their overflow, and or take on projects not within their typical scope of work.

Due to reconstruction there’s not as much to see, but here is some of our recent graphic, web, UI / UX, packaging and other design:

A few Testimonials

“We have worked with Heather for over 17 years. She is very professional and we appreciate her quick turnaround time. Heather's management of our website, e-commerce, graphic and marketing needs is critical to the success of our store. We highly recommend her business.”

“Ad Factory was our sole interactive agency and had responsibility for creating all marketing campaigns including Email, Social, Web, and internal marketing assets. She managed national campaigns, print, collateral and media buys with our other departmental heads. I highly recommend Ad Factory. They are easy to work with, they deliver great work and produce outstanding results. Ad Factory was extremely responsive to our needs and deadlines, which often required last-minute changes and numerous versions to address the requirements of our 12 divisions across the US. They never let us down.”

“Ad Factory was always there for us in our time of need, 15+ years. At Tootsies we have a lot of last minute projects that arise and Heather takes such great care of us and gets us what we need quickly. I know I can always rely on Ad Factory and never have to doubt their professionalism. I do not know what we would do without Heather! She bends over backwards for her clients and her creative talent shows through her work!”

"We had been looking for someone to design and manage our web presence, graphics, ads, social, mail, print and marketing - a designer that actually "got" what we did and could tell our story. Since May of 2012 we have been thrilled with the results we received from Heather."

For nearly ten years Heather has been creating graphics, designing and managing multiple websites, and strategically helping my restaurants and other ventures including Cafe Adobe, Texas Back in Business, and others. She also set up a very complex website for one of my ventures that required government contract level attention and a custom application that went through HUD and Earnst & Young audits. Her company responds more quickly than any advertising or online firm that I have ever hired. The quality is good and they are always cheerful. Highly recommended!

"I've had the pleasure of working with Heather for more than 16 years for my company(s) marketing, positioning, branding, website, social and e-commerce. I found she has not only industry leading expertise but more importantly, she's remarkably resourceful in providing creative yet cost sensitive solutions. She very quickly got a grasp of our needs and pointed out numerous substantial items which we had not considered. Heather is exceptionally creative and comprehensive in her approach to marketing efficiencies. I couldn't recommend her any higher, especially for small to mid-size businesses looking for cost effective, creative solutions with bottom line impact.”

"I would like to offer my personal and professional recommendation for Heather Foelsing. Since 1995, I have utilized her skills specifically for advanced Photoshop techniques in regards to post-production on photography for magazines. We have hundreds of photographs in various high-circulation publications. Heather's skills with all of Adobe Creative Suite products are expert and in this very competitive field, I rely on her when my clients demand the best."

"We work with Heather at Ad Factory. She is very responsive, creative and knowledgeable. Working with Heather is a joy. She takes time to explain and provides choices that fit our needs."

“We have continuously used Ad Factory for several of our businesses over the last 15 years. Heather is extremely professional and creative. She is knowledgeable in all facets of design work from marketing consulting to complex websites. Anytime we have questions or new ideas in design, we know a quick phone call to Heather will give us the answers we need. Combine that with her ability to just get the job done quickly and you can understand why we keep going back to AdFactory again and again, and will continue to do so.”
