Working with Phoenix businesses
A real person, focused on getting you seen.
I’m Stu, a New Zealand-based digital marketer. I work with businesses across New Zealand and the United States, getting them found online and winning more work in markets where standing out is half the battle. With 15+ years in the trades and over a decade running my own business behind me, I get what small local businesses need.
I’m not based in Phoenix, but everything runs online, so distance is no barrier. You deal with someone who actually does the work himself, not a faceless agency or an account manager reading from a script.
Phoenix is the capital of Arizona and the heart of one of America's fastest-growing metros, the Valley of the Sun, with a booming population driving huge demand for home services, HVAC, construction and the trades. From downtown and Scottsdale out through Tempe and Mesa to surrounding communities like Chandler, Gilbert, Glendale and Peoria, customers search locally for services near them. In a fast-growing, competitive market, a sharp website and strong local SEO are what get you found first.

Is Phoenix a competitive market for digital marketing?
Yes. Phoenix is one of America’s fastest-growing cities, so the same local searches are fiercely contested and standing out is worth a lot. That makes showing up first, with a fast site and sharp local SEO and ads, more valuable here than in a quieter town.
Are you based in Phoenix?
EightySix Digital is a New Zealand agency run by Stu Clark. I’m not based in Phoenix, but I work with businesses across the United States and New Zealand and everything runs online, so distance is no barrier. You get someone who does the work himself, not an account manager reading from a script.
Which Phoenix areas do you cover?
All of Phoenix and across the Valley of the Sun, including downtown, Scottsdale, Tempe, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Glendale and Peoria, out to the wider Valley including Surprise, Avondale, Goodyear and Queen Creek.
Should I use SEO or Google Ads for my Phoenix business?
Both work well together. Google Ads gets you to the top of Google in Phoenix today, ahead of the pack, while SEO builds local rankings that bring steady leads over time without paying per click.
Do you only work with businesses in Phoenix?
No. I work with businesses across Phoenix and the wider Valley of the Sun, and right across the United States and New Zealand. Everything runs online, so wherever you are in the metro, from Scottsdale to the West Valley, I can help you get found and win more work.
