The Succeeding Small Team

We are proud to introduce the passionate experts that make up the team at Succeeding Small. As a digital marketing agency based in Colorado Springs, we deploy strategies that are as unique as the entrepreneurs we’re serving. With diverse skill sets and backgrounds, our in-house team of specialists comes together with a shared passion for innovation, creativity, and giving back to the small business community. We are dedicated to continuous growth and improvement, where we always take pride in the work that we create.

My name is Madeleine Costa, founder of Succeeding Small. I began my company when I realized I sought something different than the large-scale marketing companies that dominated the market. I wanted to serve the small businesses that reminded me of those that made up my family for generations. It was important to me to provide superior marketing at an affordable price.


After earning my Bachelor’s degree in English and Marketing, studying the complex algorithms that search engines use to rank websites and successfully managing dozens of digital marketing campaigns, I have been able to form a deep understanding of how to successfully grow small businesses online.

As a Colorado Springs native, I love that my job allows me to give back to the small business community that helped shape my Colorado Springs experiences. Whether you’re a family chiropractor or a photographer, I always enjoy being able to experience an entrepreneur’s journey to becoming a successful small business owner.


My favorite part about being an account manager at Succeeding Small is forming genuine relationships with our clients. As the communications bridge between our clients and the Succeeding Small team, I’m able to tap into our clients’ needs and help our team craft meaningful communication strategies.

I was first introduced to Succeeding Small as an intern while pursuing my business marketing and philosophy degree from UCCS. In the internship program, I fell in love with working with small businesses, seeing them grow, and getting them the digital visibility that they deserve.

I now work as a copywriter for Succeeding Small where I create unique content for local businesses to grow their online presence. It is incredibly rewarding to work with small businesses and their owners, hear their stories, and deliver engaging content to boost their brand awareness in today’s digital world.

With a decade of copywriting expertise across diverse industries, I craft compelling narratives that captivate audiences using words that convert. From tech titans to budding startups, my pen has danced with brands large and small, delivering messages that resonate and drive action. 

Through meticulous research and creative finesse, I’ve mastered the art of transforming complex ideas into digestible content. Whether it’s snappy taglines, engaging website content, or persuasive marketing collateral, my words help influence and inspire connection. With a proven track record of delivering results, I thrive on the challenge of bringing your vision to life through the power of language. I am thrilled to bring my expertise to Succeeding Small and be part of an innovative team.

In addition to our incredible team, we are also proud to offer a digital marketing internship program. We prioritize education and continuous learning, and this program allows us to extend that culture into the student community. We partner with UCCS and other universities in Colorado Springs to educate students in digital marketing. During the internship, students learn every service we provide, work with real small businesses, and get the opportunity to find what they’re most passionate about within the world of digital marketing.
