In 2012, just 2 years out of College, I started my own social media marketing business, working primarily with small business owners from my hometown of Randolph Vermont. Shortly after diving into social media marketing, I realized the need small businesses had for consistent branding, and cohesive online experiences; from online search, to social media, and finally a well designed website focused on user experience and converting visitors into paying customers.
