A note from the founder:
Edit Media Consulting was created to help businesses win business.
As the wife of a small business owner, I've seen the time it takes to keep businesses running. Marketing and communications often fall by the wayside despite their criticality to generating awareness and future business.
That's where Edit Media Consulting comes in.
I left my role in integrated marketing and communications at a Fortune 50 brand after nearly 10 years to lead marketing for my husband's firm. I quickly realized that I love helping businesses tell their stories — the passion and excitement of someone running a business is palpable. And that person should be focused on running the business, not the details that come with developing and implementing a media strategy.
Call me a trailblazer if you want. My professional career began just as social media was starting to be used as a marketing tool, so I've been testing and learning new media strategies for my entire post-graduate life. I bring this experience and my education — a bachelor's degree in journalism with an emphasis in public relations, and a master's in journalism and strategic media — to work with me every day.
Now, I have a team of experts who understand the value that businesses bring to the community, and the importance of their success to the people behind the scenes.
We would be honored to tell your story.
