Chandlerthinks is a strategic minded, agent-based marketing company that helps communities create a sense of place and assists brands in developing their strongest voice.
We believe clients deserve a team of specialists instead of a house of generalists. This allows clients and related projects to always have the right people for the job versus whomever happens to be available. Want to know more about "agent-based marketing?"

We're located at 324 Main Street, Suite 2, Franklin, Tennessee 37064— just a few miles south of Music City.
Our primary focus is leading and managing the process of place branding for cities, communities and tourism destinations. Collectively, our team has assisted more than 50 communities with the process of developing a competitive identity for the purpose of building tourism, economic development and community momentum.
We help places promote themselves. Attractions, events, festivals, museums, tours, schools, communities and DMOs. We help them with research, determine ROI, develop marketing plans, social media coaching, digital marketing and the good, old-fashioned traditional advertising.

We do a lot of digital marketing for clients for one reason - today's marketers demand to "fish where the fish are." As a result, the evolving needs of clients are focused on learning what's next in social media and staying relevant in the creation and harvesting of their digital footprint. Social, search, web development and more. Sure. We've got a "guy" for that — we create a team of specialists, remember?

It takes three years to earn the coveted Tourism Marketing Professional (TMP) credentials, but Chandlerthinks’ Director of Research Greg Fuson, can now claim to be a Southeast Tourism Society Marketing College graduate.
Chandlerthinks utilizes an agent-based marketing model. In other words, we believe clients require a team of specialists, not a house of generalists. Please meet just a few of those specialized marketing agents.
