About TDC Marketing

From Corporate Photography to Fractional CMO

TDC Marketing began as The Downtown Creative as a corporate and architectural photography company and grew into the Fractional CMO it is today. Founded in 2009, we existed purely to strengthen the Visual Brand of our clients. Over time, we noticed that the assets being created weren’t being used as strategically as possible and found opportunities to serve our clients not just at the ‘1,000-foot’ level, but also the ‘10,000-foot’ and the ‘30,000-foot’ levels as well.

Beginning in the world of Content has given TDC Marketing a competitive advantage in the landscape of Marketing agencies. Combining expertise in Content with Marketing Strategy was the ‘melding peanut butter and chocolate’ moment for TDC Marketing - one made the other better.
