Ankeny is one of the fastest-growing suburbs in the Des Moines metro. That growth brings customers, and it brings competitors. Whatever you do, somebody two exits down does it too.
We do the same work the big agencies sell, with owner-level attention and without the overhead baked into the invoice.
In a town of 1,500, being known is half the battle. Ankeny is not that. It is a fast-growing Polk County suburb sitting on I-35 just north of Des Moines, and new businesses open every month. When somebody in Ankeny searches for what you do, they scroll past a wall of companies that look a lot like yours. Being good at the work is not enough. You have to be findable, and you have to look like the obvious call.
The big agencies know it, and they pitch Ankeny businesses hard. Their invoices carry the account managers, the office lease, and the software markup that come with a big shop. You pay for the machine whether the machine is thinking about your business that month or not.
We are a small shop based in Stuart, and here is the part the other agencies cannot say: we are in Ankeny all the time anyway. Our founder’s son goes to school at North Polk in Alleman, a few miles north of town, so school pickup happens here five days a week. Some of our best client videos get filmed waiting in that pickup line. When you call, you get the person doing the work, not a coordinator reading from your file, and meeting face to face does not require an appointment three weeks out. Call or text (515) 422-6208.
Three clients, three different trades. The work looks different for each one. The attention does not.
Landscape design and landscaping across the Des Moines metro.

Not a package grid. The specific work that wins a crowded market.
Your prospects compare you against a dozen tabs before they call anyone. Your site has to answer their questions faster and look sharper than the shop down the road.
Your Business Profile current, your reviews growing, and your services showing up when an Ankeny homeowner or business owner searches. In a suburb this size, the map decides who gets the call.
Real photos and real updates from your business, posted consistently. Not stock images with your logo dropped in the corner.
No ticket queue, no account coordinator. You text us, we answer, the thing gets done. That is what small-shop service means in practice.
"After having a relationship end very poorly with a previous marketing agency, Nate was able to salvage the pieces I was left with and put them back together in an even better fashion than before. In the last two years, my business revenue has doubled to more than $500k and I attribute a lot of that growth to the work that Nate and Marketing Main Street has done for us. I look forward to continued growth with Marketing Main Street."
Yes. Tebock's Landscape, Leetown Advisors, and Obsidian Heating and Cooling are all current Ankeny clients.
Same work, same data, no metro office overhead baked into the invoice. And we are in Ankeny constantly anyway: our founder's son goes to school just north of town, so being available here in person is a Tuesday, not a road trip. Nick TeBockhorst's review on this page says the rest better than we can.
