Book a callFort Collins & Northern Colorado
I’m Phil Carpenter. I led Mish Media and have worked with Northern Colorado businesses including Mishawaka and Riverside Colorado. Now, through Hidden Lever, I work directly with owners who want an experienced marketing partner to stay involved.
Let’s talk about your businessBased in Ohio today. Continuing to work with Fort Collins and NOCO businesses remotely.
Experience in your market
Ongoing marketing leadership & consulting
My work with Mishawaka connects marketing direction, digital systems and continued support for a venue where the experience is the product.
During our work together, Mishawaka achieved 20% year-over-year growth. The relationship spans my agency leadership and continued consulting work.

As CEO, I scaled Mish Media from a new agency to $500,000 in revenue in less than six months. That meant building client relationships, leading the team and turning a growing workload into a functioning business.
That experience shapes how I work with owners today: with a practical understanding of sales, delivery, people and the pressure of making growth work. I continue to support the Mish Media team as a consultant.

Through my work with Mish Media, I helped build and establish the Riverside Colorado brand as it grew into a recognizable Northern Colorado destination.
The relationship brings together brand direction, marketing and continued collaboration with the agency team. It is the kind of work that develops as a business earns its place in the community.

Maybe your name is known locally, but inquiries aren’t keeping up. Maybe you’re opening a new location, refreshing the brand or trying to turn a busy season into repeat customers.
We can work on positioning, search visibility, the website, campaigns and follow-up within one ongoing relationship. If you already have staff or an agency, I can help lead the work and connect it to the business goals.
Marketing for venues and entertainment businesses →An ongoing marketing partner
I work with business owners on a monthly retainer. You get a marketing partner who learns the business, helps decide what matters and stays involved as the work develops.
A campaign that isn’t working. A growth goal you’re unsure how to reach. A team that needs direction. In a 20-minute introduction, we’ll talk through the situation and see whether I can help.
We’ll define the priorities, my responsibilities, how we’ll work together and a monthly retainer before work begins. Ad spend and outside costs are discussed separately.
We start with the most useful changes, review what’s happening and adjust. I can do the work, lead your team and coordinate partners as the business needs.
No preparation needed. The first call is a conversation about your business and whether working together makes sense.
