Cimarron Winter

What Cimarron Winter does

Cimarron Winter is a privately held, founder-led digital agency headquartered in Minneapolis, Minnesota (424 Washington Avenue North, Suite 206), operating since 2010 as Cimarron Winter, LLC. The firm functions as a fractional MarTech consultancy, delivering tailored enterprise engagements through specialized consultant pods that supplement client marketing and IT departments rather than selling full-time seats. Its core technology focus is the Adobe Experience Cloud ecosystem — Adobe Experience Manager (AEM), Adobe Assets, Adobe Target, Marketo, Adobe Analytics, and Adobe XML Tech Docs — supported by a 10-plus-year Adobe Silver Solution Partner relationship established in 2015, with services spanning AEM implementation, on-premise and cloud migration, multi-site and multi-region management, translation governance, content strategy and personalization, and Adobe platform optimization.

The company's product surface is organized into four service lines: Strategy & Process Services, Systems & Infrastructure Services, Search & Content Marketing Services, and AI & AEO Services. Revenue is generated exclusively through professional services engagements — custom project work and fractional team support — priced per engagement on a multi-year or scoped-contract basis with no public pricing tiers. The customer base is concentrated in U.S. enterprises across manufacturing (3M, Banner Engineering, Tennant, Wilson Tool, MultiTech, PAR Systems), healthcare and medical devices (Abbott Laboratories, Medtronic), information services (Thomson Reuters), and consumer electronics (Best Buy), with additional delivery footprint in the United Kingdom and Australia. The firm does not publish revenue, has not raised institutional funding, and operates with a 1-10 employee lean structure under co-founders Ginger Sorvari Bucklin and Jennifer Kemp, supported by an Experience Director, a Director of Content Marketing, and a Web Technology Director.
