PROFESSIONAL EXperience

I started my journey working in online sales proving leads to colleges. Later, I had the wonderful opportunity to work on the Google Campus in my hometown Ann Arbor, MI with the Adwords team. I eventually became a supervisor of GDesk overseeing inbound calls as a mentor and educator of my team. I also supervised the Zagat team with Google in the same call center. My experience working on the Google Campus in the past continues to pay dividends as I maintain relationships with former co-workers. Some of my former colleges joined me in my efforts to provide quality services to small business. I left Google in an attempt to start my very first small business as a restaurant/bar owner. That acquisition fell through the cracks in the last minute, but I wouldn’t trade that experience for the world. You live and you learn.

I took my talents south to the great state of Texas to work for a respected Mergers & Acquisitions firm Generational Equity. Good times and a great experience, but also one of the hardest jobs I have ever had in my life.  Calling business owners large and small everyday to discuss divestment options. I learned a ton about business valuations. I have a new understanding of the right way to grow a business and ad value in some very detailed ways.  Looking back on my 1st chance to be a business owner, my new experiences gave me a great respect for the process. Lets just say my original business plan lacked a proper valuation of the business my partner and I tried to acquire.

After surviving my time at Generational Equity, I decided to go back to doing something fun. I began working with the Google Mapping Team while also working as a marketing consultant with a local marketing firm in Addison TX.  I’ve had the chance to provide virtual tour mapping to some pretty awesome venues across the Dallas Fort-Worth metroplex. That incredible experience is what led me to the idea of one day working for myself. It's nice to work for someone and have resources around you, but in the back of my mind there were ideas and approaches I wanted to use for my own. It's my goal to provide affordable options to small business owners.

How I Got Started

I got my start as a business owner after working as a marketing director in Louisville Kentucky.  Some of those positive connections I made in Texas reached out to me and as they say… A Star was born. I am proud to say that after 2 years of running my own private practice that my first client is currently with me today. I center my approach around integrity and education.  I really enjoy educating my clients on the Digital Marketing world and its inner workings. I take pride in staying abreast in all of the new changes in SEO and Paid advertising online.

I take pride in my ability to provide peace of mind to business owners who simply need someone they can trust to do the right things for their brand. I enjoy being there for business owners who also enjoy being involved in the marketing and just need a little help doing the right things. Everything I do for my clients is all about increasing sales revenue while protecting their brand. I am very transparent.  I want my clients to understand everything that I am doing for them so they will have the chance to provide valuable insights ongoing. I help my clients avoid unnecessary spending on costly marketing tools. I don’t engage in the nickle and diming that you will find in larger marketing firms. So far I have been able to provide some incredible ROI across the board for all of my clients to date. I have a solid understanding of how the internet ticks. I am able to use my digital marketing savvy to execute various strategy with great efficiency. As you will notice on my linkedIn profile, I have an eclectic background largely centered around direct sales and digital marketing.
