Hi there, I’m Lindsey. If you’ll give me two minutes of your time I’ll explain why my skills may be exactly what you’ve been looking for. I’M EXPERIENCED: I’ve built my 25-year career around a genuine love of the arts. I’ve designed, written, edited, and coordinated thousands of pages of print collateral and hundreds of digital projects. I primarily use Adobe InDesign for editorial pieces such as newsletters, reports, and catalogs, and Canva for social media or projects that require collaborative editing. I’M FAST AND RESPONSIVE: After 25 years, I’m fast. I know how to get a project moving and keep things on track. Once we start working together, I provide my personal email and cell number, so you’re never left guessing where your project stands. I provide estimated completion dates for each stage of a project and can schedule regular screen-share meetings if desired. I HAVE AN EXCELLENT TRACK RECORD: Since joining Upwork in 2019, I’ve maintained a 100% job success rating across 150+ projects. Outside of Upwork, more than 90% of my clients are repeat customers who continue to call on me as needs pop up. I'M A WRITER: I come from a long line of published authors and have spent 10+ years in corporate marketing. I'm great at injecting life into lengthy or boring content without leaning on AI. Thank you for your time; I’d love the opportunity to chat more and earn your trust.

In my most recent project, I built the GoHighLevel automation system for The Benedetto Event Center, handling lead follow-up, calendar booking, and Facebook/Instagram sync, contributing to over $4,500 in confirmed bookings tied directly to the automated pipeline. I'm Idemudia. I've spent the last few years doing two things most people treat as separate skill sets: building CRM systems that actually run a business day to day, and designing the Websites and email flows that feed those systems leads in the first place. On the CRM/automation side, I build and manage GoHighLevel sub-accounts from the ground up: pipelines, calendars, contact imports, and Facebook/Instagram lead sync. I've done this across multiple client accounts and multiple locations for the same client at once, keeping every automation firing correctly without leads slipping through. I've worked across industries including: • Childcare & Education • Events & Hospitality • Oil & Gas / B2B Services • Property Management & Rentals GoHighLevel || HubSpot || CRM Setup || CRM Automation || Email Marketing || Email Automation || Email Campaigns || Marketing Automation || Sales Automation || Workflow Automation || Lead Generation || Lead Nurturing || Lead Management || Campaign Management || A/B Testing || Pipeline Management || Landing Pages || Sales Funnels || Conversion Optimization || Customer Onboarding || Appointment Automation || Zapier || Make || API Integration || Stripe Integration || Shopify Automation || SMS Automation || Chatbot Setup || Virtual Assistant || Contact Management || Database Cleanup || Campaign Scheduling || Performance Tracking || Customer Retention || Email Copywriting || Behavioral Automation || Lead Scoring || Multi-Channel Marketing || Win-Back Campaigns Every setup starts with what the business actually needs, not a generic template. I test the automations myself before handing anything over, I hit deadlines, and I communicate proactively instead of going quiet mid-project. Automation or website, my goal is the same: systems that run without you having to keep checking them every minute. Happy to talk through your setup, whichever piece you need first.
