About TLC

It’s no coincidence that the acronym for Trish Leonard & Co. is TLC… because ‘Tender Loving Care’ is exactly what Trish Leonard delivers.

“If I’m going to put my name on something, it’s got to be a product that meets all the elements of a comprehensive approach to the way we care,” she said.

Since its founding in 2009, TLC Marketing & Creative Services, Inc. has grown into a results-driven, award-winning agency dedicated to helping businesses, nonprofits, and associations succeed. What began with small acts of service has become a trusted resource across Bonita Springs, Southwest Florida, and beyond. Recognized as Small Business of the Year by the Bonita Springs and Greater Estero Chambers of Commerce and named among the Best Marketing Firms by Best of Florida in 2025 and 2024, TLC continues to be guided by service, strategy, and community impact.

Our work is rooted in building lasting partnerships, understanding client needs, and delivering tailored solutions that drive both immediate results and long-term growth. Quality, positivity, and social responsibility define everything we do, from campaign design to community engagement. With a focus on listening first, we provide creative, strategic, and impactful marketing that strengthens connections and creates growth opportunities. Our Motto: “Every Business Needs A Little TLC”!

“Soon we started to receive unsolicited requests from local businesses willing to pay for our services,” said TLC founder Trish Leonard. “Referrals are the best compliment”.

In 2018, the Bonita Springs Area Chamber of Commerce named TLC as its Small Business of the Year, and today, our agency enjoys its award-winning ranking throughout Southwest Florida.

Whatever trajectory your business has in mind, it begins with the ‘TLC Relationship.’ Not surprisingly, Leonard identifies this as being the common denominator in every contract.

“We want to get to know our clients in ways that establish accountabilities on both sides of our spectrum of care. It takes focus to establish this underpinning but once established it becomes very efficient,” she said. “Often it leads to a long-term relationship -the most rewarding of all. “Who doesn’t need a little TLC!”

Our Mission:

To deliver superior service and foster outstanding relationships by upholding quality, positivity, and social responsibility.

Our Vision:

To be the trusted leader in marketing, delivering exceptional service, purposeful creativity, and sustainable solutions. We are committed to dynamic partnerships while upholding our dedication to client success.
