02 — About

Premium.
Integrated.
AI-powered.

Marketing Dept. is a premium, dark-luxury marketing agency for local and regional businesses. Built around three principles — a single point of accountability, a studio-grade standard for everything we ship, and an AI operating system that does the repetitive work so humans can focus on the work that matters.

Our edge is Atlas by Marketing Dept. — an in-house AI operating system that quietly runs the repetitive parts in the background, so the work you see stays high-touch.

Jose Guerra, Founder of Marketing Dept.

Jose Guerra

Founder — Marketing Dept.

I started Marketing Dept. because I was tired of watching local businesses hand their marketing to five vendors who never talked to each other.

I built the systems first — including Atlas, the AI layer that now runs the repetitive work behind every account — then built the studio around them. It's still just me at the top of every relationship.

Marketing as infrastructure.
Brand as a system.
AI as the operating layer.

— House thesis
03 — In their words

“We replaced four vendors with one studio — and for the first time our marketing actually moves as one thing.

They didn't hand us to a junior. The founder ran our account from day one — and it showed in the work.

— Owner · Multi-location med-spa · LA

The monthly content drop alone gave us six weeks of posts. Everything just reads more expensive now.

— Founder · Boutique fitness · LA

Leads finally land where my sales team actually works. No more chasing forms across five tools.

— GM · Home-services group · Santa Clarita

Quiet, precise, and fast. It feels less like an agency and more like an in-house department.

04 — Questions

Pricing is quoted per engagement — a single monthly retainer for all five services, or à la carte for any one. It's monthly with no lock-in. Tell us what you sell and we'll send a tailored proposal within two business days.

No. Everything runs month-to-month. We'd rather keep earning the relationship than trap you in one.

All five services — ads, content, email & SMS, social and website — built and run as one integrated system through GoHighLevel, and powered by Atlas, our in-house AI operating layer.

Onboarding takes about a week. Your first content drop and live ad campaigns typically go out within the first two to three weeks.

Founder-led, one studio, one standard. Nothing gets handed to a junior or outsourced to a freelance pool — and Atlas quietly runs the repetitive work so the output you see stays high-touch.
