👋 i'm a marketing freelancer / portfolio careerer / community-centered marketer / content creator
Across digital marketing, storytelling, education, and hospitality, I’ve spent the past several years helping mission-driven brands clarify their voice, build systems that actually support teams, and turn ideas into deliverables.
Currently:
• Freelance marketing & content strategist working across hospitality, wellness, education + with the team at Playbook Marketing Co
• Creator of Strategy Loading... a series exploring local creatives, entrepreneurs and other nontraditional paths.
• Digital marketing and video content creator connecting local businesses, creators, and values-led brands
I’m drawn to the motivation behind why people build things: the curiosity, ambition, pivots and expectations shaping how we work.
My projects live at the intersection of business, creativity, and digital culture, and I care about translating big, abstract ideas into grounded strategies people can realistically use.
If you’re building something a little unconventional, I’m probably already curious.

Looking to grow your business this year?
Plan to leverage digital advertising to profitably attract your ideal customers?
Do you want to grow your business but are concerned about wasting money on contractors, employees, or agencies that don’t deliver results?
This could be the perfect opportunity you’ve been waiting for...
My name is Patrick Eagan and my partner Brett Smith and I have spent the last 10 years actively managing over $50 million in advertising spend on Facebook alone.
Since 2015 we've worked in 47 different industries with over 300 clients to help their businesses generate wildly profitable marketing results.
Here’s just a few examples of those campaigns:
- Generated over $18,000 in new sales for a flooring company in 29 days!
- Sold out an entire e-commerce sporting good store in six weeks!
- Helped bring in $473,000 to a medical technology start up!
- Grew a service business by $25,000 per month during our first month!
- Sold $30,000 worth of an education program in the first 14 days!
- Added $10,000 per month to a professional coaches business!
AND those are just some examples of the results we’ve been able to generate for clients over the years!
If you want more details, I put together a sixteen page collection of example campaigns in over 20 different industries. Inside are screenshots of the results, examples of the campaigns, and much more!
Shoot me a message if you’d like to check it out! -Just say “Can you send me the results guide?”
Now, you may be wondering… “If you’re that good, why are you on Upwork? And why do you have no track record on here?”
Good questions.
Until 2020 we'd been working full time on helping deliver results for the clients of our agency, Reliable Marketing.
During that time most of our clients came to us through referrals or our own marketing. (we practiced what we preach)
For that reason we’ve only ever done a few small projects on Upwork before the agency really took off.
This year my partner and I decided to wind down the agency business and just focus on continuing to help a few of our long term clients. (didn’t leave them stranded)
We're obsessed with marketing and helping clients but just not interested in growing an an agency-style business with employees and a high volume of clients.
Instead, we're looking to help out a few select businesses more intimately this year to rapidly growth their revenues with proven marketing strategies and tactics.
I do have some bad news however...
To be honest, we're in absolutely zero rush to get into a business relationship with just any company.
Believe it or not this isn’t some marketing or positioning tactics. (if you’re the kind of person that is that skeptical of everything please don’t bother messaging me)
I’ll be upfront with you. In working with over 300 clients we’ve learned some hard truths about marketing.
Most agency owners and freelancers have a massive incentive to promise the world to win your business.
They’ll tell you that just about anything you ask for "can be done" and often won’t ask a single question about your business. They promise the moon and deliver... well usually next to nothing!
Here’s the BRUTAL truth.
The best marketing in the world can’t save a broken business.
If you don’t have a solid product, proven economics, and a history of sales through other channels…
Investing in paid advertising is most likely just going to be a quick way for you to go broke.
That’s why before we work together we genuinely want to know everything there is to know about your business and what your goals are.
That way we can put together a plan to achieve those targets based on reasonable projections and timelines.
If that doesn't sound as exciting to you as blind promises of an upfront billion percent ROI… then you may want to look for an inexperienced marketer who can waste your money for free.
However if you’re looking to grow your business this year AND want to get a plan based in reality we'd love to jump on a quick 30-45 minute call and learn more about your business and goals. Brett and I switch off taking these calls based on availability, but you're in great hands with either one of us!
We love connecting with business owners and talking marketing so even if it’s not a good fit, we promise to do everything we can to point you in the right direction on our call.
We’ve hired contractors, employees, and agencies over the years so we know what it’s like to be on your side of the table. We're not the high pressure sales types, especially since we're only looking for win-wins with anyone that we work with.
So if you’d like to connect and talk about your businesses growth plan for the years shoot me a message here on Upwork and we can set up a time to chat!
Kindest regards,
Patrick
