Email marketing wasn’t on my radar until an out-of-the-blue sophomore-year internship changed everything. I got the call while I was sitting in the library and had a split second to decide: Do I drop my Design Studies minor to take this 15-hour/week internship? As you can probably guess, I said peace out to my minor and plunged into the world of email marketing for small businesses.
A year before this, I was actually writing a monthly newsletter for my university’s Business Sustainability Collaborative inside a now-defunct platform called Bronto (RIP).
At that point, I was still questioning, “Does email marketing even work? Is it still worth it?“
Fast forward to my junior year: I landed a role at iContact, a leading email marketing software company, where I got a crash course in everything from writing to list segmentation to deliverability. Turns out…it came naturally to me.
That was when I truly discovered the power of sending one message to hundreds, even thousands of people at once.
From there, I went on to work at a digital marketing agency where I managed blogging, social media, email marketing, and client accounts. Nearly a decade later, I’ve consulted and worked with dozens of creatives and service providers to build email strategies that connect, convert, and grow their businesses.
These days, I’m offering full-service email marketing exclusively inside Flodesk (my fav platform offering email marketing for small businesses). Check out how I’ve structured this service offering and how we can work together!
