CHECK OUT OUR AWARD-WINNING COMMERCIAL!
Last year, our client, Dieterich Bank, entrusted us with creating a multi-media ad campaign. We came up with a killer concept and enlisted Storyteller Studios to produce the commercial, which won a 2024 Communicator Award of Distinction from the Academy of Interactive & Visual Arts.

The epitome of teamwork, this project was led by Zeal and included Art Direction by Bob Sandefur, script writing by Nicole Plegge Creative, three amazing actors (Jessica Lynn Ambuehl, Mia Bible, and Arlin Peebles), Storyteller Studios' production talents and hard work, and our client's influence and willingness to be "different" in the banking industry.

Congrats to Kate Allaria from Zeal Marketing & Consulting for being named one of St. Louisโ€™ Best Marketing Firms. It has been a joy working with Kate and her amazing clients the past two years. Congratulations, my friend, and thank you for inviting me on this journey with you!

Nothing means more to me than my clients finding value in the work my Zeal Team delivers. But to have my clients nominate me for St. Louis' Best Marketing Firms ... ๐™ฉ๐™๐™–๐™ฉ'๐™จ ๐™ฃ๐™š๐™ญ๐™ฉ ๐™ก๐™š๐™ซ๐™š๐™ก.

I couldn't have imagined two years ago that TODAY, I would be announcing that my company has been recognized as one of St. Louis' Best Marketing Firms. http://www.sbmon.com/Awards/Article/1925/2021-Best-Marketing-Firms

๐—™๐˜‚๐—ป๐—ป๐˜† ๐˜€๐˜๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐˜†: When I first told my dad that I was launching my own marketing company called Zeal, he was concerned about the Z and ... you know ... alphabetical phonebook listings .... to which I replied: "๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ that's not a thing anymore, but I sure appreciate your concern!" Now I'm looking at this list (scroll ALL THE WAY DOWN) and wondering if Dad wasn't right!

But ZEAL is an absolutely fabulous name for my marketing company. Thanks to my very best friend for bringing the idea to our Hibachi lunch two short years ago. ๐Ÿ’™

ZEAL /zฤ“l/ ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ฏ Great energy and enthusiasm in pursuit of an objective or a cause.

Yes, indeed. That's me. That's the passion of small business owners. That's the WHY behind every entrepreneur.

There's no such thing as a "one-man show." Thank you to all who have supported this journey and endeavor of mine. Thank you to my team, clients, strategic business partners, family, and friends.
