What's actually different about Tyler & East Texas
Tyler had about 110,000 residents in 2023, according to Census Bureau estimates, and the metro area passed 245,000 people that year, according to the Tyler Economic Development Council. It sits about 100 miles east of Dallas.
Tyler is known as the Rose City. The area has a long history of commercial rose growing, and the annual Texas Rose Festival is a local tradition.
Today the economy leans on health care. Large hospital systems and specialty clinics make Tyler a medical destination for much of East Texas, and they are among the area's biggest employers.
The city is also the main shopping and service center for a wide rural region. People drive in from surrounding counties for doctors, stores, contractors and professional services, so local businesses often serve customers far beyond city limits.

Industry playbooks relevant in Tyler
The part clients actually remember.
Not the reports. The uncomfortable conversation that changed the trajectory.
We had the capacity and the certifications the whole time. We just never had anywhere for a brand doing research at 11pm to actually find any of it before deciding to call someone else instead.
We had the technical capability the whole time. What we didn't have was a way to show a property owner we understood their actual numbers before they ever got on a call with us.
We were running two different companies out of one website and wondering why neither side converted well. Splitting them was obvious in hindsight and something we'd never have done ourselves.
