About Us

We love small businesses and want to see them thrive. Hire us to be your trusted partner and navigate the sea of marketing opportunities to find the best way to share your brand and products with the world. We work with small business owners in New England, the Tri-State area and beyond to enhance your branding and messaging so that it talks to your prospects and customers and not at them.

 
Our passion for seasonal and small businesses all starts with our mission statement.​

Mission Statement

Small Businesses are the fabric of our communities. Each touches and enriches our lives. When they succeed, we have kinder, closer, and stronger communities.

 

I am a seasonal and small business champion. I educate, support and help small business owners thrive by developing targeted, on-brand messages that talk to and create deeper connections with their prospective customers.

 

In turn these efforts build awareness, grow our local communities and make their dreams a reality.

​

  • Brand Messaging Development & Strategy

  • Traditional Marketing and Advertising

  • Digital & Direct Marketing

As your collaborative partner, we'll identify the best approach to launch your business, new product or rebrand to get the awareness and engagement you want with your target audience.

Owning and Running a Small Business is Hard.
Does Your Small Business Face Any of These Challenges

  1. You Feel Overwhelmed Doing It All  - You'd love to have someone else handle it for you or at least collaborate with your team about your brand and messaging strategy,
     

  2. You need to Develop your Brand Messaging & Identity - No one quite understand who you are or what your business does/stands for. You may not even understand who to sell to,
     

  3. You need to Launch a New Product or Promotion - You have an upcoming new product launch or promotion for a class, milestone anniversary or more, but you're not sure where to start,
     

  4. You Need to Drive More Leads, Sales and Traffic to Your Site/Store, Social Media is creating awareness but not leads. You want to consider/implement Email, Direct Mail or Digital Ads.
     
    ​

  5. Your business needs to Create a Website/Google Business Profile - You aren't being found just via social and need to add credibility with a site and set up a Google Business Profile that will work behind the scenes for you,
