And now a word from our happy customers:

Besides being a pure joy to work with, Nick is a professional, energetic, take-charge person who is able to communicate the short term and long term benefits of his ideas. Nick is extremely knowledgeable in using marketing strategies and social media to increase revenue and sales.

The Fort Collins Brewery and Gravity 1020 hired Nick Armstrong after participating in a seminar Nick was a part of. Nothing was status quo in the seminar, from the chairs being arranged differently to Nick bouncing around the room in his brightly colored tennis shoes, we were educated and entertained all at one time. This energy and creativity is what caused us to hire Nick to redo our websites, embrace new social media tactics and market our up and coming restaurant and brewery. We worked along side Nick for a year and half and would recommend his talent and creativeness to anyone willing to take a look at the “standard” way of doing things a little differently that still achieve lasting results.

Meetup doesn’t make available enough stars to rate Nick’s groups! A big THANK YOU to Nick for your generous sharing of information, interesting conversations, and poignant perspectives! I’m continually impressed with the depth and breadth of Nick’s knowledge. Nick is an avid community builder through providing and facilitating the sharing of information and other resources. His friendly, fun and affable personality, coupled with an inviting sense of humor, have resulted in his having a cadre of friends, colleagues and business relationships, all sharing the same strong sense of community and ethics. Nick charges forward to get the important things done, while, at the same time, is always generating and creating new tasks, perspectives, priorities, and relationships.

Nick is not only extraordinary at what he does, he is extraordinary to work with. For each project I have hired Nick for he has gone above and beyond from start to finish. His work is always comprehensive and quality and he is excellent at being able to explain things and give instructions to allow me to properly utilize his set up and work. He is always quick to answer questions or respond to my requests, and always seemed to be on step ahead of me. I would (and have) hire Nick again and recommend him to anyone in need of his services.

Nick and his team delivered a great new website for my company. I am happy with the results and the feedback from our clients and friends was super positive.

Nick is a brilliant marketer and is incredibly skilled at creating and enhancing every aspect of marketing for the businesses he works with. Nick is a master at quickly understanding and clearly communicating the core needs of clients and developing and implementing a comprehensive, holistic solution for his clients. Nick is also very positive, upbeat, personable and a pleasure to work with. I have and will continue to recommend his services to our clients and anyone in my personal network that needs marketing services.

Thank you for coming in to talk to our DECA class. Typically guest speakers are ‘boring and a waste of time’ (according to students) and they said you were the exact opposite, which is a ringing endorsement from teenagers.

Nick Armstrong is one of a kind. Count on him when you need a remarkable idea – or several of them – all at once. Nick is a Howitzer of rapid fire ingenuity. We need firebrands like Nick thinking the unthinkable thoughts in marketing and sales – ones that just might provide a business development breakthrough. We bring him in to specifically shake us up. And we pay him to do that.

If there is a unique community event going on (Ignite Fort Collins/Boulder/Denver, TEDxFoCo, Career Camp, etc), chances are you will see Nick Armstrong at the center of activities. When you see a local event offered and you see that Nick Armstrong is involved, you should register knowing it will be an amazing event. Nick exudes leadership as a community builder. One of Nick’s greatest talents is that of an instructor. He routinely donates his time to teach at the Loveland Center for Business Development (LCBD) and the Larimer SBDC. Nick can take complex subject matter such as web analytics and present the class material in a way that is easily understood. Nick is trustworthy, reliable and very talented; I give him my highest recommendation.

Greenpoint Landscaping researched many marketing companies online and found WTF Marketing… we thought they were cool and relevant. We enjoyed working with Nick, he was fun, very responsive, and has great ideas. We like the look of our new website, functionality, and how it tells our message of what our business really is. He also set us up on a blogging plan to help drive traffic to our website.
