What We Do
Turnkey Marketing helps small businesses succeed.
We provide outsourced marketing management services to busy small business owners - mostly in the automotive industry. We are a small but mighty team that cares deeply about our clients. We love seeing them thrive, and we're delighted to help them grow. We move fast but precisely, and we take pride in a job well done.
Core Values
- We genuinely care - We listen to, care for, and serve people beyond what's typically expected in a business relationship. We care for others because we believe in people and their dreams.
- We face challenges with optimism and grit - We recognize there are always options in this abundant world; we keep our cool and don't fold under pressure. We move forward with hope and confidence because we know that if there's a will, there's a way.
- We own it - We believe that our work is bigger than the task at hand. We have an ownership mindset, take responsibility, keep our word, and do what it takes to get the job done because good work done well contributes to the common good. We all win when everyone does their part.
- We do the right thing - We aren't driven by what is convenient but by what is right, good, and fair, even if it is uncomfortable, more work, or hurts us financially. Even if others go low, we go high.
- We check our egos at the door - We know we aren't perfect and aren't afraid to try new things, share our opinions, or make mistakes. We aren't driven by the need to be right but by the insatiable desire to be excellent. We are open to learning from others.
- We build trust - We build trust through transparency, self-accountability and open, authentic communication. We assume positive intent, and we're the first to extend trust.

Who You Are
You know it's not about you. Titles, status, and individual success mean less to you than being part of a strong team. You let others shine and you don't have to be first. You share credit, highlight the accomplishments of your colleagues, and understand it takes everyone to win.
You're driven and focused and don't need-or want-someone to tell you what to do next. You also embrace accountability because you believe results matter. You enjoy learning and can take advice from anyone, knowing you'll be better for it.
You understand yourself and others. You know that healthy ideological conflict and challenges come with working with people, and you handle them with grace. You have good judgment and intuition when it comes to working with others and you know the impact of your words and actions.
You're not into drama and don't take an "us vs. them" mindset.
And those six core values? Those beliefs define you.
What Will You Be Doing?
The Graphic Designer creates engaging and on-brand graphics for our clients. You will also have some marketing responsibilities that we will train you on.
We care deeply about our clients and we believe that work done well changes the world. You will get to know the personality of our clients and create visually appealing "insta-worthy" graphics for their social media accounts, ads, etc. You will be in charge of the entire process of defining requirements, visualizing and creating graphics including illustrations, logos, layouts and photos. You'll also be the one to shape the visual aspects of things like product packaging, exhibitions and more. Your graphics should capture the attention of those who see them and communicate the right message. For this, you need to have a creative flair and a strong ability to translate requirements into design. If you can communicate well and work methodically as part of a team, we'd like to meet you. The goal is to inspire and attract the target audience.
