I'm Maggie — a creative director and marketing consultant who believes that you can build your business, with the power of visual connection

I'm just a girl from an East-coast beach town,
 and I always knew I would have some artistic purpose for my life...
but I didn't know how or where.

In 2003, I graduated high-school and changed my major three times in college. No path felt like "me", until I started working at Starbucks, while taking local classes. I fell in love with customer service, management, but also selling. I would challenge myself on up-selling, and increasing sales with offers of samples, pastries, and more. While working for Starbucks, I took some art and photography electives and quickly realized I wanted a career where I could incorporate business, with fashion, but also selling. 
I moved to Philadelphia, PA and earned my minor degree in Visual Merchandising and then my B.S. degree in Fashion Retail Management and Marketing 

While earning my degree, I completed internships with Urban Outfitters, Juicy Couture, and Nicole Miller. I realized how much I loved selling and managing a team in the "clothing industry". and after graduation, I started management roles with companies such as Justice, PacSun, and others. While working for these companies, I utilized social media to increase sales, targeting the local demographic, and challenged my team members to increase units per transactions, especially in the slower winter months here at the beach, where we profit on summer tourists. I had success and was recognized for achievements. During this time, I married and had my two sons, who are now almost fourteen (14) and eleven (11). While pregnant with my second son, I started photographing professionally, which has lead to where I am today. For years, I worked really hard to not only build my business, but to retain my clients, by ensuring that my marketing stands apart from the competition. 

I have had years of success as a business owner. I have designed and built my own websites, graphics, and more. If I can't find something online, I make it myself. This has kept me modern, true to my aesthetic and MY target client. After getting numerous requests from friends who own small businesses to help them with their marketing or branding, I knew I could launch a second (2nd) business to continue to help motivate and educate business owners on how visual marketing and branding is CRUCIAL to success.

And now I'm here to help you do the same.
