Our expertise range from upgrading your website to a fast and responsive mobile-friendly online platform, to displaying your logo and branding prominently on the city’s most driven-by billboards, and of course everything in-between.

We Focus on Strategy So You Can Focus on Your Business
You are the expert, let us prove it.
Graphic Design & Branding
Your brand is your most valuable asset, and if it doesn’t jump off the page (who are we kidding—jump off the screen), you might as well be using WordArt. Our partner, Michelle, gives your brand the hero cape it deserves to help you reach your key demographic.
Social Media Marketing
If you want to reach customers who own phones, there’s a good chance you’re going to find them on social media. Our partner, Ashly, is the secret sauce behind our social media strategies. Let us build a solid social strategy so you can focus on the real world.
Web Design & Development
We offer a completely customizable approach to building your company’s online presence. Our goal is quality above all else. Our team takes the time to learn about your goals and how we can help you attain them online. Plus, we offer your first year of hosting at no cost.
Email Marketing
You may or may not be familiar with marketing touchpoints. Either way, email marketing should be your most consistent. We can help you craft low-cost, effective email communications to reach your sales force: Your loyal customers.
Copywriting & Editing
When you hire Slantics Advertising, you’re hiring on a writer who dreams of one day having his name on the New York Times’ Best Sellers List. One of our partners, Trey, nerds out on grammar. If you’re ever up for a lively debate, ask him about the Oxford comma.
Media Strategizing & Buying
Through years of building foundational relationships, training, countless cups of coffee, and online courses, we’ve got the network and the team to help you plan and execute an advertising strategy to grow your business.

Ashly DePew - Strategist
I've had a passion for building brands since beginning my career and have worked directly with over 100 local and national brands including Planet Fitness, Workout Anytime, OrangeTheory, and Massage Envy.
Having worked in different marketing spaces, I’ve been given the opportunity to approach marketing from many different perspectives which which has led me to realize one thing: Every brand deserves a full-scale marketing team to strategize and execute on their behalf. That is what we have built for you!
We collaborate with everyone, from small to medium sized business owners, to chief marketing officers at large corporations to strategize and execute custom, premium marketing strategies on their behalf. We take a no red tape approach to marketing.
I’m truly thankful every day for my business partners that help make everything we do possible, and of course for the clients who share their brands, goals and dreams with us.
Trey Kauffman - Developer
For years I pushed back against the constant reminders I was born into the dreaded coveted millennial generation. Yet time and time again, as I soaked in the knowledge offered to me by mentors and supervisors, I noticed a consistent pattern evolving: The value of a well-grounded relationship far outweighed that of a one-time sale. Building trust and starting conversations organically has become my passion in business.
My focus through my more than 10 years of marketing and sales experience has been to become as valuable an asset to my company and peers as possible. That focus was easily translated into my own ventures after realizing I would never find the type of satisfaction and fulfillment I wanted working in the corporate world. My resolution quickly became to bring dedication and business ethics to life through Slantics Advertising — a vision which couldn't have been realized without the help of my incredible business partners.
Columbus is the city I've called home for about 10 years, and I'm a big fan of its beauty. If I can find a good running route, mountain bike trail and a sunny patio at one of our many breweries, I'm a happy camper.
Michelle Merz - Designer
With eleven years of graphic design and branding experience and a degree in interactive media design, I have created works for an array of individuals, companies and organizations.
I am obsessed with qualitative research and aesthetic design. The challenge of integrating the psychology of design and marketing, user friendliness and creativity to produce designs that are both memorable and effective is something I thrive on. Strategically, my work aims to elevate brand offerings and strategy by pinpointing audience appeal and distilling core messaging down to its purest and clearest visual form.
When I’m not in front on my computer. I can be found drinking copious amounts of coffee, playing sports, spending time with my two children and seeking out the best tacos and beers Columbus has to offer.

Unlike a lot of agencies, we don’t believe our work is intrinsically valuable. When we develop your website, work with you to craft your stunning new branding, or help you develop the social strategy to put all other social strategies to shame, we want you to feel as if you’re working with your own personal marketing team.
The value you receive from Slantics Advertising is in the relationship we develop with one another. If we’re out-of-sync, the quality of our work will reflect that. Trends don’t equate to growth, pretty as they might look. Our goal is to get you, so we can get your customer. Inspiration comes from understanding. In a global economy like the one in which we’re living, sometimes it can be difficult to feel like you’re being heard.
We hear you loud and clear.
We also get small business. Not every decision is as simple as signing a work order. Sometimes you have to ask yourself what you’re going to have to go without in order to grow. When every dollar counts, trying something new can be scary. Which is why we want to be on your team.
Your success is our own. Your growth helps us grow. Every step of the process, from conception to completion, is designed to alleviate trepidation of the process. This is how we provide value to you.
