Joshua Mackens

Owner, Founder, CEO

Tutelary Marketing

Josh retains many different hats at Tutelary Marketing. Being the owner, he is responsible for the overall direction of the company and it’s growth and success. He also happens to be the lead “Local SEO Engineer” as well. He is deeply involved in the development of Tutelary Marketing’s Local SEO product, innovation, and research. Local SEO changes constantly and Josh’s passion for Local SEO keeps Tutelary Marketing on the cutting edge.

The Local Business Internet Marketing University

Josh is also the founder of the Local Business Internet Marketing University. Josh’s vision with the University is to fill a need: make life easier for local businesses. There’s not a lot of education or community out there for local businesses to make them better, faster, and stronger. Josh and the University are changing that.

More Than You Wanted to Know (About Josh)

Here's a bit more about Josh, just in case you're curious.

Joshua grew up in Clarksville, TN where he lived in the same house for 18 years of his life. He worked with his dad, who was an entrepreneur himself, on many different businesses, including construction, home building, and farming as well. Josh played basketball all 4 years in high school (a passion he still maintains) and when he graduated, decided to attend Trevecca Nazarene University in Nashville, TN. Majoring in Business Management, he graduated from Trevecca in 4 years and after working as the lead marketer for a small local hot tub retail company in Nashville for awhile, opened up his own digital marketing agency, Tutelary Marketing, promptly 1 year after graduating. After 2 years of experience and vast success with Tutelary Marketing, Josh decided to start openly teaching local businesses who couldn't afford a digital marketing agency how to market their local business themselves and that's how the University was born.

So, what does Joshua do when he isn’t bringing unbelievable Local SEO results to his clients, consulting on Local SEO, directing Tutelary Marketing, or running the University? Well, he likes to sit back, relax, maybe watch a little of “That 70′s Show” or possibly even “The Office”. He also likes to play basketball as much as possible, get outside on exceptionally beautiful days, and socialize with just about anyone and everyone on subjects such as: anything and everything. He has been known to slam down particularly enthralling books in a day and is always taking recommendations. He loves ties and is particularly adept at throwing down the Double Windsor (how about that knot?!). He also enjoys a good puzzle & absolutely loves board games, Settlers of Catan anyone?

Key to Success

Josh's key to success is knowing where true success comes from, the Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit.

Something No One Knows About Josh

His last name is actually not real. Somewhere along the line one of his ancestors changed their last name to Mackens and kept it. It could have been to avoid the civil war or...some other reason one might change their last name. If you've seen his real last name running around anywhere, please let him know.
