What Makes Us Different
Optimal Business Consulting's team of Certified Pardot Marketing Automation Consultants has several years of experience with specific focus on using a consultative approach to optimize the Pardot Marketing Automation platform to put effective lead management and nurturing systems in place using automation and proven best practices.
We've developed over a dozen proprietary and proven methodologies to enhance Pardot lead acquisition and management.
We integrate CRM, marketing, sales, and web solutions to generate highly qualified sales leads, improve lead-to-sales conversion, and build customer loyalty…and we use technology and systemized processes to automate everything to help scale your business.
We collect business requirements and ask questions in order to fully understand business needs and how they relate to desired key outcomes and performance measurements.
We will provide platform-specific technical recommendations and hands-on execution with delivery support to ensure a successful implementation.
We'll discover and provide new process improvement opportunities, and in many cases will diagram processes out for a clear picture and understanding of what is or should be happening.
During implementation we provide several valuable authored documents and process diagrams as needed which we can walk through together that will help facilitate understanding of Pardot features and recommended best practices, and which will assist in the process and get everyone on the same page with regards to data architecture, goals, campaign process, task sequence, responsibilities, expectations, timelines, etc.
Typically, for new implementations you’ll have your first campaigns running within 45-60 days and the full onboarding process completed within 60-90 days (depending on the package/plan selected).
We work with Pardot end user organizations of all sizes, plus we often work with Salesforce Partners and Solution Providers as their Pardot Experts.

We love business and we love to help people and to solve problems, so…
Our mission is to help good companies become great companies by cost effectively scaling to the next level with marketing automation, process optimization, and revenue attribution helping our customers realize ROI from their marketing stack so their businesses can grow.
And to have fun doing it 😉
Approach
Expertise: Several years of Pardot Marketing Automation Consulting experience with consultative approach to help put lead management and nurturing systems in place using proven best practices.
Attitude: We approach every customer project with an ‘always learning’ attitude and apply our modern, data-centric technology driven approach to provide our customers with the competitive edge they need and the opportunity to grow!
Ownership: Our customer’s success is our success! So we are always looking after our customer’s best interests as if we were a main stakeholder or owner in their business. Decisions need to be made with the specific circumstances of the customer in mind; a particular solution that worked well before may not be the best approach in every case. This approach allows us to keep a proper frame of mind when considering decisions on customer projects…would we do it this way if it were our company and if it would directly impact us as if it were our business?
Business Case: We also approach things from a practical business standpoint. What is the business case? Does it make sense to do it this way? Can we automate this step or process for a better long term result?
History
Established as Digital Marketing Agency ‘Mile High Marketing‘ in 2009, we rebranded to ‘Optimal Business Consulting, LLC’ in mid 2018 as a Colorado Business Consulting Agency specializing in Pardot Email Marketing Automation.
We were unhappy with the cookie-cutter status quo of the marketing agency landscape, so in 2009 Mile High Marketing was established as a digital marketing agency in Denver, Colorado. With our goal being to help our customers reach their full potential with the marketing tools available at the time, we focused on Marketing Consulting to businesses with an emphasis on WordPress website development.
In 2018, we realized too many businesses were not getting enough usefulness out of their Salesforce technology stack for marketing and sales, often despite huge capital investments. So we rebranded to Optimal Business Consulting and shifted our focus to the Salesforce.com ecosystem with a special focus on the Pardot Marketing Automation platform. Since that time we have served many happy customers within diverse industries as an extension of their team as their Pardot Marketing Automation Experts!
