Marketing Services

Work with an A/E/C industry expert.

Barbara Shuck, FSMPS, CPSM

No matter how hard you try, clients still say they don’t know what you do. There is a better way to stand out and be noticed for your experience and expertise. With more than 25 years in A/E/C marketing services, I’ve seen it all and feel your frustration. Long hours. Go’s that should have been No’d. Boring boilerplate. 

As a nationally-recognized* veteran marketer and StoryBrand Certified Guide, I help companies clarify their mission, messaging, and marketing.

*Awarded the Society for Marketing Professional Services (SMPS) Weld Coxe Marketing Achievement Award in 2022 for outstanding service and lasting industry contributions in the areas of research, education, leadership, marketing communications, and innovative programs.

Why hire an A/E/C marketing consultant?

Marketing Services

Your team is in the trenches every day and may not be aware of the latest practices that drive results. The long list of “when we have time” tasks are overshadowed with proposals and winning work. You need a StoryBrand Certified Guide with special expertise in design and construction to help you simplify the complex, clarify the vague, and help you stand out in the highly competitive A/E/C industry.

Barbara routinely works with A/E/C consultants, including the creatives at Dovetail Design and BlueMaize Consulting in Arizona and others across the country. She also has a strong network of StoryBrand Certified Guides who specialize in videography and digital marketing services.

We were looking for an “outside” third party consultant with actual leadership expertise. Barbara showed us how leaders don’t need a title to lead, which especially helped our younger staff. She pulled the engineers into the presentation, which increased their leadership confidence.

Working with Barbara adds value to our client services and within our team. She is an integral part of our clients’ pursuits that result in us exceeding expectations and lead to numerous project wins. Barbara is a strategic partner with a plethora of industry knowledge. She has the courage to make tough decisions, and the compassion to listen to client needs. Barbara is always ready and flexible, and we count on her to jump into the trenches to help clients win.

When I launched my consulting business, I was struggling and wandering in my own marketing messaging. Barbara presented a structured method to accomplish my objectives— a compelling message presented succinctly— and showed me a process that works for all communications. Now I have a clear message and can focus on what I do best which helps my business move forward.
