ABOUT GROUP B

Two people.

Real work.

Group B is a small studio in Burlington, Iowa, built around the idea that the people who plan your marketing should be the same people who execute it. No handoffs. No account managers. No "the strategist will get back to you next week."

OUR STORY

We started Group B for one reason.

After years of watching businesses pay good money for marketing that looked great in a deck and didn't move a single number, we got tired of it. The problem wasn't the strategy or the website or the email — it was that nobody connected them.

So we built a different kind of shop. Small on purpose. Senior-only. We take a small number of clients each year and we treat their revenue like our own. Every project starts with the same question: what number are we trying to move, and how do we know if it worked?

That's it. That's the whole pitch.

THE TEAM

Who you'll actually work with.

No bait-and-switch. The people you meet in our first conversation are the people who'll build your project. Both of us are senior, and both of us are operators.

Grant Stoecker

Founder & Operator

Eight years running marketing at a mid-market manufacturer Align Production Systems, nearly doubling revenue at Flying Eyes Optics, plus work with brands like Hagerty, Porsche Design, and Fox Sports. Through ChronoGrant I've also grown one of the largest watch communities in the Midwest and run activations with ORIS, Bremont, and Ball & Buck.

Most agencies sell curb appeal — run the playbook, hit the metrics, send a report. They skip the system underneath that actually makes marketing work. Group B is me doing the opposite. I'm not an agency, I'm a revenue systems operator: I find what's actually breaking your marketing function and build the system that fixes it.

I work best with founder-owned companies who want help, not vendors who want a brief. Based in Burlington, Iowa. Built to last, not to sell.

HOW WE WORK

A four-step process. No surprises.

Discover

We dig into the business, the data, and the goal. No proposals before we understand what you're actually trying to do.

Define

We agree on the metric, the scope, and the timeline. One document, one number to move, one team accountable.

Build

We execute. Weekly check-ins, async docs, no status meetings. Everything ships to a real environment for you to see.

Grow

We measure, iterate, and double down on what's working. The first version is rarely the final version — that's by design.

WHAT WE BELIEVE

Four principles. Non-negotiable.

Revenue, not vanity.

Impressions, followers, awards — they don't pay the bills. We measure work by the dollars and customers it brings in.

Senior people, every engagement.

No juniors learning on your dime. The people who pitch you are the people who build for you.

Own the work, don't farm it.

Strategy, design, copy, dev, analytics — all in-house. No offshore agency under our agency under our agency.

Say no often.

If we can't move the number, we'll tell you. If a project isn't a fit, we won't take it. Better business for both of us.

WORK WITH US

We'd rather

build than

pitch.

We take on a small number of clients each year. If you're trying to grow something real, get in touch — we'll have a straight conversation about whether we can help.
