What's your business, and who are your customers?

My business is a Digital Marketing Agency. We specialize in Website Design and Development, WordPress security, and E-Mail Marketing. We have clients from all different business sectors. These include Non-Profits, Real Estate Sector, Information Technology Sector, Health Coaching Clients, and Retail Clients. We can help any type of business, from a small business to a multi-national.

Tell us about yourself

After a 21-year career in health care providing technical support, I started a Digital Marketing Agency 14 years ago. At that time, we were only doing websites. Since then, we have grown. I am motivated by serving my clients and helping them succeed.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

One of them was helping a client run ads that had a $2000 ad spend. This transited into $80,000 in sales for the client.

What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?

Sometimes it is managing your time and trying to balance multiple clients.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

  1. Find mentors smarter than you.
  2. Learn from your mistakes.
  3. Become an avid reader. This will help you in the long run.
