Amber Gaige isn’t just a marketing strategist — she’s a marketing force. As the founder of Far Beyond Marketing, a boutique agency in McKinney, Amber is redefining how entrepreneurs think about growth, brand strategy, and long-term success.
With over 20 years of hands-on experience as a fractional CMO, senior VP of marketing, and consultant to national franchises, Amber is a certified StoryBrand Guide known for bringing clarity to the marketing chaos. “Marketing isn’t just about tactics,” she says. “It’s about building a strategy that works while you sleep — one that aligns with your operational goals and drives real growth.”
Amber is a third-generation entrepreneur and a sixth-generation McKinney native. Her roots run deep, and not just in Texas soil, but in the entrepreneurial spirit. Her career took a major leap when she sold her first business, a lead generation company, just five years after launching it. Now, she leads a growing team of 14 at Far Beyond Marketing, delivering white-glove, customized marketing strategies for business owners who are ready to level up.
Most recently, Amber celebrated a milestone that speaks volumes about her influence: her book, “The Far Beyond Marketing Guidebook: Stop Being Duped by Ineffective Marketing!” hit bestseller lists in four countries. “It took about a year to write and another year to edit,” Amber says. “The whole time, I kept thinking about the overwhelmed entrepreneur trying to figure out where to spend their next marketing dollar.”
The result? A straightforward, no-fluff guide that’s as powerful as it is approachable. “It’s a back-pocket guidebook for when entrepreneurs are making big decisions,” she says. Designed as an easy weekend read, the book is packed with budget recommendations, actionable strategies, and even an appendix for quick reference. “It’s not a textbook — it’s a guidebook,” Amber says. “It’s the kind of resource every business owner should have within arm’s reach.”
Whether she’s speaking at a chamber event, guiding an entrepreneur through a 90-day marketing strategy, volunteering at church, or serving on the Women’s Alliance of the McKinney Chamber, Amber is all-in on service — to her clients, her team, and her community. She’s a proud mom to her 8-year-old son, who keeps her busy and inspired every day.
In her free time, Amber is an audiobook enthusiast who’s always learning. “Books keep me sharp and grounded. Whether it’s business, leadership, or just a great story — I’m always listening to something new.”
If you’re a business owner who’s tired of flashy gimmicks and ready to get real about your marketing, Amber is someone you want in your corner. From website development to media buying and beyond, Far Beyond Marketing offers done-for-you solutions that bring peace of mind and results.
“I love helping entrepreneurs win,” Amber says. “That moment when we take the guesswork out of it and they start seeing traction — that’s what it’s all about.”
