PORTFOLIO

Here are a few projects that I've been busy with.

Why does social media matter so much?
Because it’s often the first impression people get of your business.
And first impressions shape trust.

That’s why we do what we do.
Not to just “post and ghost,” but to help businesses show up with purpose. Consistently. Clearly. Confidently.

A strong social media presence isn’t about chasing trends or beating the algorithm. It’s about building connection, credibility, and momentum.

This is how we help small businesses thrive.

📈 This is why I do what I do.

I get so excited when I see results like this. Not just because the numbers went up, but because it means something clicked.

I love helping small businesses show the world what they’re really about.
I love digging into the strategy, the psychology, the design... and pulling it all together in a way that connects.
And I love when a client feels proud of how they show up online.

It's not just about the beautiful content (although I love that too!), it's about helping businesses tell their story in a way that works.

I’m so thankful I get to do this.

Stop posting every day just to post.
It’s not a strategy. It’s just content fatigue.

This is Shadow. He’s my black lab and unofficial head of quality control. Today he’s showing us what lazy marketing looks like... napping on a pair of Crocs without a care in the world.

Your content needs purpose. A plan. A goal.
Not just a time slot on your calendar that says “post something.”

Two or three intentional posts a week will go much further than seven filler ones.

Less noise. More strategy.

🚀 New Launch Alert!

Excited to share the website I designed for Post Financial. It's clean, quick, and easy to navigate — kind of like your dream insurance experience (yes, that exists).

Highlights include:
🔹 Custom API integration
🔹 A calculator that actually does the math
🔹 Instant quotes with no awkward phone calls
🔹 Built for Ontario, styled for simplicity

Life insurance might not be exciting... but the website sure is.

Take a look: postfinancial.ca

📢 Grab Their Attention in the First 3 Seconds! 📢

👉 A compelling question, a bold statement, or an eye-catching visual can make all the difference.
👉 Without a hook, your message might get lost in the scroll.
👉 A strong hook increases engagement, keeps viewers watching, and drives more clicks.

If your videos aren't getting the attention they deserve, it might be time to rethink your opening! 💡
