Join the Marty Party

Marty Boyer earned a degree from Northern Kentucky University. He is a married father of two. 

Professionally, Marty has spent over 15 years building and running businesses across Northern Kentucky and Cincinnati — from manufacturing and ecommerce to technology and consulting. Before owning his own organizations, he served as Chief Product Officer at a WPP company, giving him a rare combination of corporate and small business experience.

That moment stuck with me. Now what I’m writing isn’t political talk or posturing, it’s pure passion. I signed up to defend my country in the US Army and was honored to serve my country at that point in my life. I volunteered to protect our borders from evil.

2026 Kentucky General Election

Residents have been asking for better communication from our city for over seven years. It's been raised at meeting after meeting. To be specific, there were 47 instances cited of resident communication failures. The full analysis of seven years of council meetings found that “we need to get the word out“ came up repeatedly, yet we simply haven’t done that. I believe that I can create a system and channels that are not burdensome to staff, Mayor or Council to improve resident communication. I’ve been building communication, marketing and CRM systems for my own companies and other companies as well, including Fortune 50 organizations.

Some of our city’s most critical processes live in institutional memory rather than documented systems. The city's technology stack is years behind what's available - and several upgrades can be made in a cost effective manner. From accounting, payment and communication systems, we have to improve the systems that operate our city. I've modernized two companies from the ground up. Park Hills deserves the same treatment — better tools for staff, real-time information for council members, and automated transparency for residents.

As we develop tools to strengthen the business corridor, we can never lose sight of what makes Park Hills worth fighting for in the first place — our resident experience. The convenience, the safety, the neighbors, the green space. That's why people love it here, and it should always remain our top priority. This also means investing in resident experience — and yes, that means spending money. Those funds should be budgeted, governed, and planned with intention. But prioritizing that investment isn't optional. It's how we protect what makes Park Hills special. Be judicious and pragmatic, but invest in our resident experience.

I love the businesses in Park Hills — the ones here today and the ones that came before — both as a patron and as an entrepreneur. There's real work to do in shaping our commercial corridor, starting with codifying ordinances that retain, attract, and support local businesses. That said, we have to be realistic. Our commercial inventory is limited, and that shapes what's possible.

Believes there's "real work to do" in shaping the commercial corridor, starting with codifying ordinances that retain, attract, and support local businesses.
