“I’m a 38-year veteran entrepreneur having owned now, 14 businesses. It’s rare to find someone like Derek Champagne that pays attention to the smallest details. Derek’s team at The Artist Evolution is simply amazing. If you are looking for someone to guide you through a difficult maze of options and come out on the other side a winner, you have found the champion of champions.”

“Derek Champagne is a marketing genius. I’ll never forget the day I received “Don’t Buy a Duck” in my mailbox autographed by the author himself! This is an excellent example of how Derek operates — he is always adding value without being asked. 

Over the 2 years I have known Derek, I have had the opportunity to work with him in business and podcast settings. He always offers practical marketing advice that I can apply right away. The greatest value Derek offers though is the sense that what you do really matters. He is an excellent listener and I always feel like a hero when I work with him. His presence is amazing.

This past year he released an online marketing course (because small guys like me can’t afford his big boy agency). Again, the value is tremendous for small business owners and entrepreneurs that aren’t ready to hire an agency for their marketing needs, they can employ the best practices in a DIY manner via the online course. 

Derek is extremely generous, wickedly smart, and incredibly personal businessman that can help you take your marketing efforts to the next level. 

I highly recommend any opportunity that you have to work with Derek.”

Daniel Evan Bauer

“Derek is, first and foremost, a people person. His commitment to me as a client, makes doing business with him an easy decision to make. He is an expert in his field, and is always ready to help me reach my goals. It is that sincere dedication that turns many of his clients into lifelong friends. I look forward to doing business with Derek and The Artist Evolution for many years…and being friends for even longer than that!”

“Derek is a genius at marketing and you can trust that he knows what he’s doing. You can come to me and complain if you find otherwise. That’s my guarantee. You’re safe with Derek and his company, so just go for it! 
That being said, the more important quality that Derek possesses is his genuine care for others and desire to help you succeed in business. You can’t put a price on that kind of relationship. Many people offer marketing services but most don’t care about your success as deeply as Derek does. You’re getting your own personal gladiator to defend you when you bring his company into your team. If you want to win in business, he’s the guy who won’t stop until you’ve accomplished the mission.”

David Rhodes
Sales Funnel Strategist

“In the online world of instant unlimited marketing information of varying quality, it’s never been more important to know someone you can trust to make sense of it all. Derek has been that person. A man of impeccable professionalism, he leads a team that always puts their customers first. We’ve worked together helping his clients get exposure on targeted podcast interviews. Our team has consistently been wowed by his team. Derek sets the tone and sets the bar high for service, creativity, and integrity. There are few people I would trust with the future of my company, Derek Champagne is that man.”

Thomas M Schwab

“It is so rare that you meet someone with Derek’s level of experience, knowledge, energy, compassion and humility. I know those are a lot of virtues to have in one person but he definitely has them all. Derek has started, run and sold multiple businesses, he’s lived a fantasy life playing music on the Sunset Strip in Hollywood and he’s grown companies faster than anyone can imagine. Doing all of these would give most people an ego, but Derek is still one of the most humble and caring guys you will meet and that is why working with him and talking with him is always such a pleasure. He is also so committed to giving more value than he receives, you know if you work with him you are guaranteed to get a good return on your investment. I would recommend Derek to anyone looking to take their marketing (or their life) to the next level.”

When it comes to creating ads and getting results they are all star performers and have the ability to take on the “heavy lifting” for ongoing marketing campaigns.”

“We are very pleased with the efforts and results we have received by having them develop, execute, and manage our marketing and advertising. We have found that by hiring The Artist Evolution to manage our marketing and advertising needs, it has freed me to work on other important tasks for my company because they do the heavy lifting for our campaigns. Derek and staff have been great to work with, they have great new concepts and ideas, and we are happy with their implementation. One major improvement has been revamping our brand (We were using our original logo from 1996 and it was time for an update) and increasing our awareness and presence in the community. in preparation for each new campaign, they ask the appropriate questions and research before tackling any new project so that they have a clear understanding of our needs and overall objectives. They have been very hands on with the physicians and eager to meet with them one on one as needed.”
