An avid climber, Denise Horton, the founder of Teton Marketing Partners, has summitted Mt. Kilimanjaro and 13 of Colorado’s famous 14,000 ft peaks. She knows firsthand that climbing is a powerful metaphor for life…and business.

Teton Marketing Partners, Inc. (TMP) is named for one of the greatest mountains in the world, the Grand Tetons, in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. An avid mountain climber, Denise Horton, TMP’s Founder, recognizes the similarities between climbing mountains and conquering markets. TMP develops marketing strategies for companies eager to grow. We help our clients find new revenue streams and drive more profit from their current business. Our goal is to be an instrument of profitable change. Our creativity is pointed directly at the bottom line.
The philosophy by which we partner with our clients considers the following key points:
- Start early and set a goal. In climbing, it’s the unforgiving peak you want to summit. In business, it’s the ever-changing market you want to conquer, or the customers you want to acquire. Either way, critical preparation, clarity, creativity, doggedness and flexibility are key elements of success.
- Work with a team you trust. When scaling a mountain, you’re careful about selecting your team. The same applies in marketing. Utilizing a top team of experts, TMP makes your vision and business goals our own. We respond to each client with a perfectly tailored marketing plan and effective, revenue-generating programs.
- Be prepared. You have to be able to quickly and smartly adapt when mountain climbing. In business, it could be an immediate response to a competitive threat or a bold move to capitalize on a new business opportunity.
- Look back. And finally, when it’s all over, you take stock of what you’ve accomplished – could you have achieved your goal faster, cheaper and better? Could you have implemented the marketing plan differently? Whether you’ve just climbed a mountain literally, or are running a business, results are key.
- The summit is not the end. Indeed, accomplishing your initial goal is cause for celebration. It’s also the time to plan your next new product, explore a new market or add new distribution partners.
Teton Marketing Partners brings an experienced, results-oriented team with dynamic ideas together to help drive your business success.
