ORGANIZATIONS

Nonprofit organizations are vital to the community as they help contribute to economic stability and mobility. Many community members rely on organizations like these to help with food assistance, education and so much more. We understand that you may not have the budget or resources to strategically market your organization. We assist local nonprofits to help increase awareness of the awesome work that they provide for the community.

BUDDING

STARTUPS

We understand that it takes a village when launching a new business, just ask Megan! As a small business, the last thing that comes to mind is your marketing and communication efforts. There can be so many different costs that come up with starting a business such as rent, supplies and the occasional unforeseen bill. We provide low-cost to no-cost services when you are launching your start-up. Just don’t forget us when you’re a Fortune 500! (wink wink)
