“18 years” story + values "and then some mentality"

For two decades, ATS Marketing has helped product-first brands navigate complex retail environments with steady ownership, disciplined execution, and long-term partnerships.

Built on Experience. Sustained by Discipline.

We've sat on both sides of the table: retailer and vendor. We know what buyers care about, what slows a launch down, and what small mistakes can turn into big delays.
You won't work with a rotating support queue. You'll work with experienced retail operators: people who have managed launches, handled line reviews, and negotiated directly with buyers.

ATS Marketing is a women-owned business built on the belief that doing what's expected—and then some—still matters.

Our team brings hands-on experience across marketplaces, national retailers, merchandising strategy, operational systems, and performance management. We structure accounts to ensure:

Governance

Senior oversight on strategy and prioritization

Ownership

Clear accountability across retailer relationships

Integration

Dedicated coordination across content, media, and operations

Alignment

Ongoing communication that keeps leadership aligned

For over 40 years, the poem “And Then Some” by Carl Holmes sat on our founder's father's desk.

He built more than 20 small businesses in his lifetime, and that poem was his daily reminder of how to show up as a leader, a neighbor, and a partner.

Today, it sits on ours.

“AND THEN SOME...

These three little words are the secret to success.
They are the difference between average people
and top people in most companies.

The top people always do what is expected...
and then some.

They are thoughtful of others,
they are considerate and kind...
and then some.

They meet their responsibilities fairly and squarely...
and then some.

They are good friends and helpful neighbors...
and then some.

They can be counted on in an emergency...
and then some.

I am thankful for people like this,
for they make the world a better place.
Their spirit of service is summed up in these three little
words...and then some.”

~ Carl Holmes ~

Built on Experience. Sustained by Discipline.

"And then some" isn't a tagline. It's how we work.
It's rearranging a client's trade show booth before doors open because we know it won't convert as is.
It's walking a retail floor and fixing a display without being asked.
It's answering the 9PM buyer email so momentum doesn't stall.
It's asking new partners, "What's your vision? What's your real goal this year?" — and pushing them to think bigger.
We do what’s expected — and then some.
As one client told us, "You guys are angels. You just swoop in and take it." That's what "and then some" looks like in practice.

Our Values

Clients often tell us, “I don’t know how we did this before you.”

Ownership

We don't wait to be asked. If something needs fixing, we fix it.

Big Thinkers Only

We ask new clients: What's your vision? What's your first-year volume goal? If the answer is small, we push bigger.

Good People, Good Products

We work with collaborative teams who trust the process and want to build something meaningful.

Try It. Adjust Fast.

We are entrepreneurial. If something isn't working, we pivot quickly and move forward.

No Drama, No Ego

We look for partners who are open, curious, and willing to adapt as retail evolves.
