We exist to give local businesses the same marketing and data strategies the corporations use — so the little guy can compete, and win.
San Diego Trades was founded on a simple belief: the powerful marketing and data strategies that big corporations use to dominate their markets shouldn't be locked away from the local businesses competing against them.
Our founder spent years inside some of the world's leading global consultancies and marketing organizations — Accenture, Harte Hanks, and Publicis Groupe — building expertise across marketing strategy, data, technology, sales and sales process. That's where the corporate playbook gets written: the identity data, the audience targeting, the funnel design, the measurement discipline that national brands invest millions into.
Then came a very different chapter — starting and running a successful Roof Maxx dealership here in San Diego. Being in the field, competing for real customers against much larger national players, made something obvious: small businesses were fighting with one hand tied behind their back. They didn't lack hustle or quality — they lacked access to the same data and marketing strategies the big companies took for granted.
That realization became the mission of San Diego Trades: take the enterprise-grade playbook — identity resolution, intent data, audience enrichment, the works — and make it usable, affordable and effective for local businesses. To teach and equip owners to leverage the exact strategies corporations use, and finally level the playing field.
What drives us most is helping businesses get the absolute most out of every dollar they invest to drive customers to their websites. Whether it's SEO, paid ads, email, or intent-based targeting, too many owners pour money into traffic that never converts — because the strategy connecting the spend to the sale is missing.
We close that gap. At San Diego Trades, everything we do is focused on the customer and on helping them grow revenue. Not vanity metrics, not clicks for the sake of clicks — real, measurable growth. If a dollar you spend doesn't move you closer to a customer, we want to fix that.

Identity resolution, intent and enrichment — the corporate data advantage, for you.
