Why YOU Need to Care About Automating Your Digital Marketing (Authentically!)

Why YOU Need to Care About Automating Your Digital Marketing (Authentically!)

As much as I’d love to work with you and have your social media marketing, email marketing, and content writing work be outsourced, sometimes budget just doesn’t permit it. Trust me, I get it!

Meet the Wee Writer, Emma Sloan

I’m 4″11, which means you could say that the phrase “Good things come in small packages” was meant for me!

But let’s start from the top: my name is Emma Sloan, and what I lack in height I make up for with the ability (and passion) to help your business thrive. 

Having spent the majority of my life surrounded by entrepreneurs, small business owners, and heads of non-profits, I was floored by the amount of time brands spend trying to keep themselves afloat rather than elevating their businesses. That’s where I come in.

I am:

-A digital marketer of over five years
-An accredited writer with 100+ publications to my name
-A Writing and Publishing graduate of the University of Victoria 
-A certified social media marketer, email marketer, and content writer 

Today I’ve compiled the best of my FAQs for those of you who want to get a preliminary lay of the land ahead of our initial discovery call… because let’s face it: who doesn’t try to research the other person before meeting for the first time?
