Gold Gorilla Media

What Gold Gorilla Media does

Gold Gorilla Media is a privately held, founder-owned digital marketing agency headquartered in Port Clinton, Ohio, founded in 2016 by Justin Majeroni. The company delivers a full-service offering covering website design and development, digital marketing campaign management, social media management, graphic design, SEO, photography and video, and business automation for small and mid-sized businesses, with a vertical specialization in automotive, marine, RV, and powersports dealerships. Named clients and case studies (Fox Cycle Works, Clemons Boats, Norris Marine, Salon 53, Uniquely Tatum Coaching, Studio Conceal) indicate a long-tail SMB book concentrated in the Ohio and Great Lakes region.

The technology stack centers on WordPress-based custom website development hosted on Google Cloud infrastructure, supplemented by a custom-built CRM that bundles SMS/email marketing, review management, sales pipeline, and social media scheduling. A proprietary contactless ticketing system developed during COVID extends the product surface into vertical-specific commerce tooling, and the company partners with accessiBe for ADA accessibility and with leading Dealer Management System providers for dealership data integration.

The business model blends one-time project revenue (custom websites priced $5,000–$30,000+) with recurring monthly subscriptions across three social media management tiers ($800, $1,500, $2,200/mo) and self-serve DIY tools (Online Listings $99/mo, Social Planner $149/mo, bundled $249/mo). Go-to-market is sales-led and consultative, relying on direct outreach, free consultations, detailed intake questionnaires, and regional chamber-of-commerce relationships rather than inbound PLG or channel partnerships. The firm operates with 1–10 employees, has no disclosed external funding, and reports no acquisition, M&A, or leadership transition activity.
