The story behind Switchback Marketing

Switchback Marketing is a marketing agency for roofing companies, founded by Aaron Thomas in 2018 as SalesGadget. The name changed because the story deserved a better fit. The team, the services and the pricing stay the same.

From Aaron

Why I chose Switchback.

I wanted a brand that felt more fitting. Something with a story behind it, some personality, and room to become a fun lifestyle brand.

Switchback was my favorite because of the story behind it.

If you have seen a trail winding up a steep mountain, you have seen the idea. Instead of heading straight up the steepest section, switchbacks give you a more manageable route. You are still climbing. You still have a destination. You are just taking a smarter path to get there.

Building a business can feel like a climb. There are different routes, changing conditions and plenty of decisions along the way. Good marketing should help you choose your next move with more clarity.

The new brand gives us a way to tell that story, from the mountain-inspired logo to Cliff, our mountain-goat mascot. For our clients, the important part is simple: our team, services and pricing are staying the same.

A guide for the climb.

Cliff is our mountain-goat mascot. He brings the mountain-and-route idea into the brand: keep the destination in sight and pay attention to the next step. You'll see him around. The work stays focused on strategy.
