Who We Are

We are a focused digital marketing agency specializing in done-for-you brand and communication strategy, social media, sales funnels, SEO, advertising and copywriting for Functional Medicine practitioners. After years working in the corporate world, we realized we want to help others work ON their business rather than FOR their business.

Now, we raise Functional Medicine business owners to new heights with the power of digital marketing. We use the detailed technical skills that we have sharpened over our many years in corporate development to make sure you are getting the best results for your money.

Landy Miyake's experience as a health and wellness entrepreneur taught her about the importance of marketing to business growth.

Jennifer Wenzel uses her 20+ years of healthcare education and marketing experience to improve clients' online presence.

Root Cause Marketing is run by two women, former co-workers turned best friends and business partners, who team with Functional Medicine practices to help them bridge the gap between where they are and where they want to go.

We understand that online marketing poses very specific challenges. We are here to help Functional Medicine practitioners every step of the way in this exhilarating, yet sometimes quite overwhelming journey of marketing and advertising their practice.

There are so many questions you might have: How do I market my business online? Which social media should I use? How do I figure out what (and when) to post? How can I make sure I’m maximizing my marketing dollars in the online space? And those are just a few of the questions Functional Marketing practices have when it comes to online advertising.

We think of ourselves more as educators versus marketers, both for our clients as well as your potential patients. With Functional and Integrative Medicine not fully embraced by mainstream society, it is our mission to bring this specialty to the forefront so that people are more open and willing to learn about this unique and powerful branch of medicine.

We also believe strongly in educating our clients about marketing practices. You won't feel overwhelmed, confused, or perplexed when you work with us. Instead, we spend the time (if you want us to!) to explain what you're investing in, the processes we use and advocate, and the steps along the way - so you know what we're building to help build your business.

YOUR BUSINESS IS IN GOOD HANDS WITH US

We both come from educational backgrounds. Jennifer has worked in the online education space and Landy is a former health and fitness instructor and adjunct professor. We are both passionate about helping others, and particularly love helping to elevate Functional & Integrative Medicine practices to a place where they have time and financial freedom; to get their businesses to the place where they are able to be successful and live out their dreams.

Having a combined total of 25 years experience in the healthcare, wellness and fitness industries, we are excited and passionate for the opportunity to partner with Functional Medicine practices. We have an affinity for this specific scope of health care because we have both experienced wellness through Functional Medicine. We truly believe healing can begin from the inside out. By getting to the root cause of the problems, and treating that, then only then can true healing begin.

We are so excited to begin this journey with you. Reach out to us if you’re ready to increase your bookings and help more people. We’d love to help!
