“Calling all small business owners – Lauren is your answer! I have a background in marketing, have owned my small business in real estate for over a decade, and have been looking for someone who “gets it” and is also attentive and hands-on. Lauren is exactly that. Not only does she assess your company’s needs and make a customized plan based on that, but she is incredibly creative, hands-on, detail oriented and a gifted project manager. I have never been able to find an incredibly talented creative director, who also has a business mind to manage the entire campaign/launch/project start to finish. Lauren can do all of that, all while offering amazing service and becoming your friend and advocate. Lauren can do it all! Do yourself a favor and hire her to help with any of your marketing needs!”
