About Us
Built for Service Businesses.
Powered by AI.
The Valley Marketing Group is a Phoenix, AZ AI marketing agency helping service businesses across the Valley outwork, outpace, and out-convert their competition.
Our Mission
Service businesses are the engine of the economy — but most are still competing with tools built for a slower era. Missed calls, slow follow-ups, and ad budgets vanishing into thin air.
We started The Valley Marketing Group in Phoenix, Arizona to put enterprise-grade AI in the hands of service-business owners. Not a SaaS dashboard, not a generic chatbot — custom AI agents trained on your business, deployed and optimized by a dedicated team.
Our mission is simple: help every service business operate like it has a 24/7 ops team, a full marketing department, and a senior strategist on call — without the payroll.
How We Work
No Templates
Every build is custom — trained on your business, your voice, your customers.
Results First
We measure everything. If a system isn't producing ROI, we tear it down and rebuild.
Industry Focus
We know the service-business playbook — the seasonality, the demand cycles, the competition.
Always On
Your AI doesn't take days off. Neither do we. Same-day support, every day.
Meet the Team
Small by design. Every client works directly with the people who built their systems.
Joshua Filani
Founder & Head of Strategy
Joshua is the face of The Valley Marketing Group — leading every client relationship, audit, and growth strategy. He translates complex AI systems into plain-English wins for service business owners and stays on the front lines of every account.
Robert Hicks
Co-Founder & Head of AI Development
Robert architects and builds every AI system that powers client results — from custom Google Ads agents and AI phone receptionists to automated lead pipelines and real-time dashboards. If it runs in the background and makes money while you sleep, Robert built it.
