    “When we started with Patricia, we weren’t utilizing email. She has taken us from 0 to over #2,000 (and growing) opt-in emails which has resulted in tremendous growth for my high-end butcher and specialty grocery store. In addition, she built & manages our website, manages our Google Ads, sends out our Text Messages, and manages all of our social media. We have been working with her for quite a while and will continue to do so for some time to come.” Bob El Toro Gourmet Meats Lake Forest, CA Hi, This is Patricia, I’m a native-born American, who studied English and Creative Writing at UC Irvine. I produce excellent content that keeps people engaged and wanting more…and more importantly for you, wanting to utilize your service and buy your product! When you work with me, you get a high-end professional who listens to you intently and asks pertinent questions. I take a deep dive into your business, your industry, your competitors, and your customers and then I create a marketing plan that relays your message in “your voice” and brings you business! MY SPECIALTIES: • Email Marketing • Organic Facebook Growth utilizing specialty groups • Blogs and Web Pages that land on the 1st Page of Google • Facebook Ads & Management • Website Management and SEO • Google Ads Management • Direct Mail Marketing & List Building ***PLEASE NOTE*** I’m not your average freelancer…I’m exceptional at my craft…so if you want average or “cheap,” then I’m not the one for you. But if you’re the kind of businessperson who surges ahead and perseveres no matter what the challenges, wants A+ talent working alongside you, and pays close attention to the bottom line…then we will get along great and “create beautiful music together.” THE NEXT STEP: If your interest has been piqued, and you think we may be a good fit, then please send me a note along with a little bit about you, your company, and the project, and I will get back to you with a response.
