About
At Bensley Creative, we help Indianapolis and central Indiana businesses grow with smart, strategic, and completely customized marketing and business development support. We’re not a flashy agency with confusing jargon or cookie-cutter packages. We’re a small-but-mighty team that listens first, learns fast, and gets to the heart of what makes your business unique, so we can build marketing that actually works.
We specialize in helping local business owners, service-based companies, and established firms clarify their message, reach the right customers, and grow with purpose. From Squarespace and WordPress website design to branding, social media strategy, email campaigns, marketing automation, and full marketing plans, we bring creativity and practical execution together under one roof.
Our approach is collaborative, personal, and rooted in real business results. We’re not just here to make things look good (though we do that too). We’re here to build systems, structure, and clarity that support sustainable growth for Indianapolis-area businesses.
What Makes Us Different
We listen first. Your business isn’t a template, and your marketing shouldn’t be either.
Experience that spans industries. We’ve worked with solo entrepreneurs, law firms, creative studios, and comedy clubs, so we get what it means to move fast, stay flexible, and be real.
Creativity meets strategy. Every solution looks good and performs even better.
Grounded, approachable, and easy to work with. No egos. No fluff. Just real results.
Our Guiding Principles
Clarity First: Clear messaging converts. Confusion costs you leads.
Growth with Heart: Success should feel good and align with who you are.
People Over Trends: Algorithms change. People don’t. We keep your audience at the center of everything.
Flexibility & Function: Your business evolves. Your marketing should too.
Honest Collaboration: We’ll tell you what we think, back it up with strategy, and include your voice every step of the way.
Whether you’re just starting your small business or scaling up an established firm, we’re here to support your vision with strategy, creativity, and execution. At Bensley Creative, we’re not just building brands, we’re building momentum.
Anna Bensley
Founder & Lead Consultant
Hi, I’m Anna Bensley. If you’re reading this, you probably want to know who I am, what I do, and why it matters, so here it is.
I’m the founder of Bensley Creative, a full-service marketing and business development firm that works with Indianapolis small businesses, law firms, and creative brands. I’ve worn a lot of hats; marketer, web designer, strategist, coach, creative director, legal industry insider, mom of four, and every one of those experiences makes me better at helping businesses grow.
My background spans law firm marketing, nonprofit development, brand strategy, and digital marketing. I’ve built Squarespace and WordPress websites, executed full-scale email campaigns, created social content systems, and designed marketing strategies that deliver measurable results. I’ve worked with gritty start-ups, respected local firms, comedy theaters, and even global companies, and the lesson is always the same: business owners want someone who gets it, listens, and turns ideas into action.
I’m known for seeing both the big picture and the small gaps most people miss, for being quick-thinking and creative, and for digging in to show off what makes your business different in the smartest, most impactful way.
Outside of work, I’m a volleyball coach, wife, mom, and believer in early-morning hustle and late-night ideas. I value honesty, growth, freedom, creativity, and community, and I believe you can be a smart, successful business owner and a real human who laughs, messes up, and keeps showing up.
If you’re looking for a marketing partner who’s down-to-earth, insightful, and all-in on helping you grow something meaningful, you’re in the right place.
