I didn’t start in a boardroom.
I started at 15 years old, designing graphics for local shops and restaurants.
Before I had a driver’s license, I had clients.
I didn’t know it at the time, but that early experience shaped everything about how I see marketing today. I wasn’t working with massive budgets or brand-name corporations. I was helping real business owners who needed their marketing to work — not win awards, not follow trends, but bring customers through the door.
That perspective never left me.
After earning dual degrees in Graphic Design and Strategic Communications, I graduated and within days landed my first full-service advertising client. That was the moment Media High Ground was born — not as another agency chasing industry buzz, but as a partner built for founders who are scaling and ready to invest in marketing the right way.
The Problem I Saw in the Agency World
As I grew in the industry, I noticed something that didn’t sit right with me.
Most agencies are built to serve:
• Big budgets
• Big brands
• Big egos
But there’s a massive group of companies in the middle — founder-led, growing fast, ready to put serious money into marketing — who can’t get the attention of those large agencies. They’re either told to “wait,” handed off to junior teams, or sold flashy tactics that don’t connect to real customer behavior.
That’s the gap we exist to fill.
Because marketing isn’t about trends.
It’s about understanding customers deeply and reaching them wherever they are — effectively, consistently, and strategically.
What We Do Differently
At Media High Ground, we don’t start with media channels. We start with behavior.
What drives someone to choose one brand over another?
What emotional triggers matter?
Where does trust get built?
What makes someone act?
When you understand that, you can attract customers on virtually any medium — traditional, digital, emerging, or niche. The channel becomes the vehicle, not the strategy.
Our clients depend on us for:
• Brand Strategy
• Media Buying
• Leadership & Sales Development
• Digital Transformation
But what we’re really doing is tying every part of the business together so the brand promise matches the customer experience. Marketing should not operate in a silo. It should reinforce leadership, sales, operations, and long-term vision.
The Power of Two Perspectives
In 2023, something special happened. My father, Tom Parsons, joined the company.
He brings decades of experience in sales and marketing across thousands of companies. Where my strengths are execution, design, and strategic brand thinking, his mastery is in sales performance, leadership alignment, and scaling revenue engines.
That combination gives our clients something rare:
A nimble team with both creative execution and real-world sales expertise under one roof.
We don’t just make brands look good.
We make sure they grow.
Who We’re Built For
We are built for B2C companies led by founders who:
• Are scaling
• Are ready to invest in marketing
• Want strategy, not fluff
• Need a team that actually understands their customers
These leaders aren’t looking for the loudest agency. They’re looking for the right partner — one who treats their business like it’s their own.
Why “High Ground” Matters
The name Media High Ground is intentional.
High ground means perspective. It means clarity. It means seeing the full picture — the brand, the customer, the sales process, and the future.
We exist to make sure our clients’ marketing isn’t just active — it’s aligned, intentional, and legacy-driven. Because when the brand promise is kept consistently, growth isn’t accidental.
It’s inevitable.
