Get out from behind the 8-ball.

I help small businesses market their business online.

Most small businesses don't need a full agency. They need one person, focused on the right things, actually doing the work — social media, your website, and everything else your marketing needs.

Free, no-pressure call. Just a real conversation about where your marketing needs help most.

Why business owners choose to work with me

  • Hands-on, not handed off

    You work directly with me: no account managers, no rotating juniors, no team you'll never actually talk to.

  • Real experience, not theory

    Nearly seven years running marketing for a multi-location healthcare business taught me what actually moves the needle, not just what sounds good in a pitch.

  • Built for how people search now

    Google, Google Maps, social media, reviews, AI search: I make sure you show up everywhere someone's deciding whether to trust you.

Where I can help most

Social Media & Content

This is where I spend most of my time: strategy, captions, short-form video ideas, content calendars, and graphics that actually sound like your business, not something pulled from a template.

Websites & Landing Pages

Clean, fast, mobile-first sites built to turn visitors into calls. This page is one example of the kind of work you'd get.

Full-Service Marketing Partner

SEO, Google Business Profile, online reviews, email marketing, ads: the pieces most small businesses don't have time to manage themselves.

Recent reels, real reach

Before I manage your social media, I run my own. Here's what my last three reels on Instagram and Facebook did:

285K views
167K views
115K views

Part of 1.2M+ views across every channel I run.

One person. Every time.

I'm Ryan Prutsman, owner of 8-Ball Consulting. Before this, I spent almost seven years leading marketing for a multi-location healthcare practice in Colorado, accountable for real results, not just deliverables.

Today I work with small businesses across the U.S., plugging into whatever part of their marketing needs the most attention, and treating every client's business like it's my own.

Based in Littleton, Colorado

Common questions

Do I need to sign a long-term contract?

No. Most work is month-to-month, and we reassess as we go. No long-term traps, just results.

How fast will I see results?

It depends where you're starting, but most clients see real movement within 90–120 days, often faster for reviews and local visibility. SEO and trust-building compound the longer we work together.

I already have a website and social accounts. Can you just fix what's not working?

Yes. I can step into any part of your marketing (search visibility, your website, social, reviews) and focus on the gaps instead of starting over from scratch.

Ready to get out from behind the 8-ball?

Every business has a gap somewhere — search visibility, reviews, your website, your social presence. Tell me where yours is, and let's fix it.
