Our Core Values

How We Work

At Open Door Marketing Group, our mission is driven by four key core values that we live and breathe by:

Partnership

We are in it WITH you. We listen, collaborate, pivot when needed, and make the magic happen together. The secret to our success is the relationships we identify, build, and nurture while helping our client partners make those same long-term and meaningful connections.

Integrity

Dependability, loyalty, honesty, good judgment, and respect guide the actions and how we make decisions in the interest of our staff and our client partners.

Passion

You’ll hear it in our voices! We love what we do and find no greater joy than realizing the impact our years of experience and strong desire to make a difference has on the organizations we work with. Our goal is always to create the best end-user experience possible.

Creativity

Creativity allows us to view and solve problems more openly and with innovation. We do this through imagination and originality, flexibility and openness to unique ideas, and transparent two-way communication.

OUR CLIENTS

Proud to Work With

    Phil Lockwood

    Founder/CEO, Distill Agency

    Never in my decades of managing teams have I worked with a more enthusiastic person. Finding skills isn’t difficult, but finding people who fully embrace your vision for culture and then do an even better job of implementing than you do yourself is the Holy Grail. Danella is in that category. Yes, she brings decades of marketing-related experience to the table, but it’s her non-stop, 7-days-per-week dedication to being part of a team that really makes her stand out. She never flies under the radar, never backs away from an opportunity, and never stops improving herself or others. Her endless energy and passion for simply being a part of something bigger than herself are at a level I rarely see in founders, let alone in an employee. Working with her will always be one of my more rewarding experiences as a manager.
