About Us

About Med Spa Magic Marketing

We help med spas become the obvious choice in their market.

We are a small, fully US-based team of strategists, media buyers, creatives, and SEO and CRM specialists, and we work only with med spas: established and multi-location practices, plus a growth path for practices on their way there. We build the brand layer that wins the comparison, run ads calibrated to each practice, and prove the return with real numbers.

Our story

It started with a kid who would not just use the formula.

Growing up, Ricky drove his family a little crazy. Told to “just use the formula” on a math problem, he refused until he understood why the formula worked. That instinct to find the root cause, not just follow the playbook, is still how we approach every practice.

Ricky started in 2011 as a self-taught SEO obsessive, then mastered Google Ads, Facebook and Instagram ads, and email, working across industries and as a trusted consultant to other agencies. Some of his very first clients were med spas, and two of them still work with us today.

In 2022, Ricky and his wife Mary went all in on med spas. Since then, we have built the Med Spa Success Strategies podcast and YouTube channel into one of the most trusted resources in the industry, written the book on the system, and grown to seven figures with a small, fully US-based team.

“I’m a marketing person who started a business, not a business person who started a marketing agency. For our clients, that difference is everything.”

What we believe

Four beliefs that shape every strategy we build.

Marketing is competition.

Every patient compares you to two or three other med spas. Our job is to help you win that comparison, so you become the obvious choice in your market.

The offer is the cherry, never the sundae.

Reputation is usually the biggest factor in a patient’s choice, around 60% in a sample scorecard, though every patient weighs it differently. We build the brand layer first, then use offers to tip the decision, never to carry it.

Know your numbers.

We manage to your cost per retained patient, how fast you earn it back, and what each patient spends over 24 months. Not lead counts.

Tell the truth, even when it costs us.

If a campaign is not worth your money, we say so. If your practice is not ready for ads, we tell you on the first call. That is why our clients stay.
