Ten years ago, my husband and I purchased Casey’s Automotive, a local small business that initially thrived on a loyal clientele—but I was convinced we could reach so many more people with the right marketing mix. I tried and failed a lot, learning firsthand what worked and what didn’t as I built our reputation at community events, on social media, and even with branded vehicles rolling through town.

In under two years we opened a second location; by year four we’d doubled the size of our original shop; and seven years in, Casey’s Automotive had grown to three thriving locations—and everywhere we went, people would say, “I see your brand everywhere! How do you do it?” 

That’s when I realized my passion: helping other local business owners piece together their own marketing puzzles, and between raising our four kids and managing Casey’s marketing, I began consulting with neighbors, artisans, and fellow shop owners—teaching them how to be found, followed, and loved by their communities.

And now I'm sharing that knowledge with everyone through The Marketing Puzzle E-Book.
