Question 1

What's the difference between Advocate Studio and Advocate 1917?

Accepted Answer

Advocate 1917 is the parent agency — generalist, full-service, working across 100+ verticals. Advocate Studio is our deep-specialty practice for industries we've productized our methodology around (wedding photographers today, attorneys and home services next). Same team. Same legal entity (Blashton LLC). Different positioning for clients who want industry-specific systems.

Question 2

Do you only work with Tennessee businesses?

Accepted Answer

Local Tennessee businesses (Nashville, Franklin, Brentwood, Spring Hill, Columbia) are our primary focus for the generalist Studio engagement — that's where our local-SEO and on-the-ground presence carry the most weight. Our vertical practices (wedding photographers, etc.) serve clients nationwide. If you're in TN, you get both.

Question 3

What does an engagement actually cost?

Accepted Answer

It depends on scope. The lightest engagement is a positioning + website + Google sprint that takes 14–30 days. From there, ongoing work is a monthly retainer scoped to your goals. Specifics get covered honestly on the strategy call — no obligation.

Question 4

How is this different from a generalist marketing agency?

Accepted Answer

Two ways. First, Studio engagements are built around the specific industry you're in — not a one-size-fits-all template. Second, the strategist on your account is the one running it; there are no junior account managers and no offshore handoffs.

Question 5

What if my industry isn't on your verticals list yet?

Accepted Answer

We can still help — through Advocate 1917, the parent agency. The Studio brand exists for industries where we've built a productized system. If we haven't built one for yours yet, the call will end with either a referral or a path forward through the parent agency.

Question 6

What does the guarantee actually cover?

Accepted Answer

The short version: qualified leads, or we cut you a check. Each engagement is scoped to a flat lead-count KPI based on the package. If we don't hit it, you get a check — we don't run free-forever retainers, and we don't take your money without delivering. Spend floors, what 'qualified' means for your business, and minimum engagement length are all documented in writing before signing.

Question 7

Do I own my ad accounts, my website, and my data?

Accepted Answer

Always. Your accounts, your domain, your CRM, your data. We never hold accounts hostage and we'll hand off cleanly any time you ask.
