What folks say
★★★★★
If you are looking for professional, kind and experienced, you've come to the right place! Love them and what they've done to help my company grow.
★★★★★
Preston and Laura have helped us tremendously with our Construction business. We reached out to them over social media and quickly got a response and a meeting set with them. They listened, and understood our needs exactly.
★★★★★
We had them streamline our website because we wanted a more focused audience and a more inline clientele with what we do. The results were excellent and now several months later we are seeing an increase in our business.
★★★★★
It only took 15 minutes on the phone with Preston to know we were ready to hire him. Since then, having him on the team has been pure gold. Cone Creatives has delivered serious value to our work and more than paid their own fee. Preston and his team are a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend them.
★★★★★
Working with Preston and Laura Rebekah has been nothing short of an amazing experience! They are knowledgeable, professional, and not only a joy to work with, but great people as well! Highly recommend!
★★★★★
Cone Agency has been an incredible partner on one of our projects. They're total pros, quick to respond and always keeping us in the loop on where things stand.
★★★★★
We've been very happy with Preston and his team. They have helped us immensely in navigating the often tricky strategic and technical issues you will face when building a brand through social media. We've been very happy with our conversion rates and Preston has been very flexible as we've thrown numerous obstacles at him. I can't imagine us going forward with future projects without involving him.
★★★★★
When someone is passionate about your cause and passionate about the quality of their work and services it produces wonderful outcomes.

★★★★★
I am truly thankful for what Cone Creatives and Laura Rebekah have done for us. They took a genuine interest in assisting us to help the less fortunate in Haiti and took us from nonexistent in the cyber world to a beautiful website that is being followed by thousands and clearly explains who we are. Definitely five stars!!!!
★★★★★
These guys killed it for our digital news business. They dug in and become part of our team, which quickly allowed them to understand what needed to be done to grow subscriptions. They also bailed us out by stepping in to fill a void in our staffing. We will no doubt use them again when the need arises.
★★★★★
Laura at Cone Creatives was fabulous at helping my managers as well as myself as we navigated our online store. During this time of the unknown, their company gave us much needed help and guidance to get us off on the right path. We are forever grateful for them helping us tweak our webpage along with ideas of increasing our sales. We cannot thank them enough. If you need someone that is knowledgeable and very helpful, please reach out to them for their services.

Not sure where your marketing is leaking?
One business I worked with thought Facebook ads were costing about $150 per customer. The real number was about $1,200, hidden by a tracking problem. Once that was fixed, they scaled to more than $1M a month in ad spend.

What it really was

Meet the family
A family business in Comfort, Texas.
My wife, Laura Rebekah, and I own and run Cone Agency together, and we have since early in our marriage. When you work with us, you work with us directly. No big agency, no handoffs.
I grew up right here in Comfort. I'm a lifelong Texan, and a few years ago we moved back home. I handle the strategy and I'm the one you'll talk to. Before this I spent more than 10 years in marketing. I was Director of Marketing at HighLevel, I worked with advertisers at Facebook, and I was Digital Director of the 58th Presidential Inaugural Committee.
Laura has been with Cone Agency since 2018. She learned this business from the ground up, and today she's a strong marketer in her own right and my sounding board on everything we do.
We'll tell you straight what's working, what isn't, and what we'd do if it were our business.

What's included in your free Google Ads audit?
If you're already running ads, we'll review your account and show you where you're wasting ad spend, any tracking issues, missed lead opportunities, landing page problems and the quick wins worth making first.
How often do I get reports?
Every month. You'll get a report showing your results and the numbers that matter, plus a call to walk through what's working and what we're doing next.
How soon can we start?
Once we've talked, we typically kick off within 3 to 5 business days.
Why should I choose Cone Agency?
Because we don't do smoke and mirrors. We care whether your marketing shows up in your revenue, not just in a report. You'll work directly with Preston and Laura Rebekah, not a rotating team, and we'll tell you straight what's working, what isn't, and what we'd do if it were our business.
