A Chicago Marketing Agency You Can Actually Reach

Rise Marketing HQ helps Chicago-area businesses get found on Google and turn those searches into calls, with SEO, Google Ads and websites planned as one piece of work.

Straight answer first: we're a Wisconsin team. Our office is in Brookfield, about 90 miles north of the Loop, and we've worked with more than 50 clients since 2020.

Where Should a Chicago Business Start?

Pick the sentence that sounds most like your week.

  1. "We rank for our own name and almost nothing else."

    Search visibility is the gap. If you have people who can make changes, consulting is usually the cheaper route. If you don't, managed SEO.

    Compare consulting and SEO
  2. "The map results show three competitors, never us."

    That points to your Business Profile and local signals: categories, reviews, and pages for the areas you actually cover.

    Start with local SEO
  3. "Ads are running, but the leads are poor."

    Usually the search terms, the offer or the landing page. We review the account before suggesting any change to the budget.

    Start with a Google Ads review
  4. "Our website looks dated and nobody fills in the form."

    Then the site is costing you leads. A rebuild or a set of focused page fixes, depending on what the audit finds.

    Start with web design

How Working With a Wisconsin Team Works

Christos Karampetsos, our founder, joins the first call with every new client. Filipos Maziotis then manages the project day to day, and the rest of our eight-person team handles content, technical work and links. You'll hear back within one business day.

Almost everything happens on video calls, shared screens and a plain-English monthly report. If you'd rather meet face to face, tell us and we'll plan a visit around it.

We're set up for the city and the suburbs alike, from the Loop and the North Side to Evanston, Oak Park and Naperville. The areas we target for you follow where your customers actually are.

Questions From Chicago Business Owners

Do you have an office in Chicago?

No. We're based in Brookfield, Wisconsin, roughly 90 miles from the Loop. Our Chicago-area work runs over video and phone, and we drive down when meeting in person is worth it.

Why hire a Wisconsin agency instead of a Chicago one?

You get a small team with named people on your account, published prices and a 60-day guarantee. Google ranks your business by where your customers are, not where your agency sits.

Do you have results from Chicago clients?

Not yet that we can publish. The case studies on this page are Wisconsin businesses, and every number on them comes from the client's own Google data.

What's the difference between this page and your SEO consultant page?

This page covers everything we offer Chicago businesses. The consultant page is for teams that want expert direction while they do the SEO work themselves.

How much does SEO cost?

Plans start at $1,000 a month and go up to $5,000 for multi-location businesses. Consulting, ads and websites are priced separately.

How fast will we see results?

Ads can bring calls soon after launch. SEO takes months to build, though our guarantee covers noticeable results, more clicks and more interactions within the first 60 days.
