    Picture this: circa 2002...a six-year-old with an old VHS-C camcorder, herding family and friends into the spotlight for indie homemade movies. That was me, on the cusp of a lifelong love affair with storytelling through video & media. Fast forward to my college years at Columbia College Chicago, where I charged headfirst into the world of Television & Media. At the student-run TV station, I wore many hats as a Project Coordinator, Executive Producer and Video Producer/Editor. At the age of 21, the web-based talk-show I was the Executive Producer for, “The 30 with Joshua Short”, was nominated for a NATAS Midwest Student Emmy. Since graduating, I've been on a journey filled with diverse projects and roles—videographer, director, producer, social media guru, event planner, sparkle fairy, you name it! But what truly fills my heart with joy is the chance to collaborate and create with like-minded individuals and community members. Whether it's creating heartwarming wedding videos or breathing life into a local café's online presence, I pour my heart and soul into every piece of content.

    Hello! I'm Jenna, and I'm excited about the possibility of collaborating with you. Let me share a bit about my journey and what I bring to the table: At the age of 18, I grew a Twitter account from scratch to 150k followers within just 9 months, successfully monetizing and eventually selling the account. I decided to take my passion for social media and help clients (like you!) with their digital marketing efforts. Since then, I've worked with clients in diverse niches, including B2B, healthcare, CPG, food, law, cybersecurity, real estate, technology, finance, and more. This has equipped me with a versatile skill set that spans social media marketing, PR, branding, project management, communications, and virtual assistant work. On the educational front, I've completed certifications in Hubspot's Content Marketing, Inbound Marketing, and Sales Software. Additionally, I hold a degree in Communications with a minor in PR. I come with 7+ years of experience and maintain a top-rated status. Having completed over 90 jobs, I hold a 100% job success score—a testament to my commitment to delivering quality work.

    Hi, I'm Amanda! I'm a marketing copywriter and content marketing expert with over 8 years of experience. My current work involves running editorial calendars, writing site content and social media copy, and delivering blog articles on a variety of topics. You can see some examples of work at amanda-anderson.com, but in the meantime, here's what a few of my previous clients have had to say about my work: "Copywriting for brands is always under pressure and tricky to get right. Amanda is a talented copywriter with a keen eye for detail, a sharp sense of humor and the ability to turn even a fairly obvious brand campaign into something charming. She is highly observant, creative and professional. She has turned around projects in a flash, always according to the brief and with a positive attitude. Trust Amanda—she will deliver." - Suzanna Tran, Director of Social at CrowePR for AI Plastic Surgery "Amanda was an absolute pleasure to work with. Her articles were well-researched and nicely written. She was always open to suggestions and I would work with her again in a heartbeat."- Jody-Ann Rowe, owner of Event Planning Certificates "Amanda joined our team to accelerate a critical project and she was amazing from day one. Onboarded quickly and has continued to deliver quality work in a highly regulated medtech environment. Thank you!" - Madelene Glomsten, Johnson & Johnson

    I'm a North Carolina native, now located in Chicago, IL. I've had a blog on the side for a little over 10 years now & that has led me to where I am now as a full-time content creator and personal stylist. My background in teaching combined with my other experiences over the years + passion for fashion & content creation make me a well-rounded candidate for campaigns and projects. I am also self-motivated, great at communicating, flexible, organized, positive, a team-player and creative. I'm always looking to learn and grow both personally & professionally so I always appreciate and welcome the opportunity to do so. I love traveling, shopping, listening to podcasts, learning & growing both personally + professionally, working out, spending time with fam, friends, boyfriend, & cute pups. Over the last few months, along with creating content & styling my clients, I've had the opportunity to write my own fashion column for a local publication (Forsyth Woman Magazine). I also create content & write a blog for a local business, the tiny spa. My main content focuses are fashion & beauty; however, I am open to expanding into more home decor & travel as well. I strive to inspire others with my content and I truly believe that everyone deserves to love what they wear and feel confident in their outfits (& selves).

    Unlock Your Advertising Superpowers! 🚀 Did you know that Facebook has over 2.9 billion ACTIVE users every month? That’s like having a global megaphone at your fingertips! Now, imagine if you had a secret weapon—someone who could create eye-catching visuals and irresistible copy that turns every $1 you spend into $2. Sounds like magic, right? For the past four years, I’ve been the secret sauce behind successful campaigns, managing over $10M in ads on Facebook and Google. But instead of bragging about it (oops, just did 😂), I’d rather share my playbook for success: 1. Spy on Your Success (a.k.a. set up tracking systems like Pixel & GA4) 2. Find Your People (identify your target audience) 3. Craft Irresistible Offers (offers that make your audience go “wow!”) 4. Create Visual Magic (designs that stop the scroll) 5. Write Words That Sell (ad copy that speaks to your audience’s soul) 6. Data is Your BFF (analyze and optimize like a boss) Sure, it sounds simple, but simple doesn’t mean easy. As a busy business owner, you have enough on your plate. That’s where I come in. I can handle the nitty-gritty of media buying, so you can focus on what you do best—running your business. Think of hiring a media buyer like me as the best investment in your business’s growth. It’s not just about spending money; it’s about making sure that money works hard for you. So, if you’re looking for someone who’s passionate, data-driven, and just a little obsessed with getting great results, let’s chat! Shoot me a message, and let’s turn your advertising dreams into reality. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Client Testimonials "Yidana and his team contacted me asking if I needed any help in the social media space. Due to his age we were skeptical at first, but gave him and his team a shot. With one week and $600 in adspend, Yidana and his team generated us 5 furnace replacements, valued at $12,500 in total. I'd recommend Yidana to anyone looking for help with Facebook Ads. Especially lead generation." - Boss Services HVAC - Kalamazoo, Michigan "When my company started growing I was in desperate need for a website, as well as help with lead generation through social media. However, I lacked the funds and expertise in this space. Yidana and his team reached out to me and created me an exceptional website, as well as helped me get started through social media advertising by running me a very successful Facebook lead generation campaign, and teaching me everything they did along the way, so I could replicate it myself. All this for a price that I could afford. Very grateful for Yidana and his team's work." - Mike W. - Oasis Lawn Care

Some of my ideal clients are small companies and entrepreneurs, ideally in creative industries, lifestyle, entertainment, events, marketing, coaching or social organizations. However, I have worked in many industries including engineering, commercial real estate, children's products, so I am very adaptable. People I have worked with would say I am bright and energetic, positive, and fun to work with! They would say I am a great leader, as I care about my team, and I am a clear and empathetic communicator. I learned a great deal of these skills in my Leadership Coach training through iPEC, one of the world's top coach training institutions. My Superpowers: * Developing unique ideas for interactivity, events, training, networking, and entrepreneurial ventures * Solving problems creatively and efficiently * Beautifying presentations and marketing materials * Writing clear, concise, engaging copy and stories * Keeping a team working together effectively Be sure to check out my entire portfolio, employment history and projects to get a more in-depth look at the range of my talents and capabilities. Looking forward to working with some awesome companies and entrepreneurs that could use a vibrant, fast, and reliable helper around!
