Digital Marketing Packages: Essentials for Small Business

Running a small business is tough. And even though it can be tough, it is also fun and rewarding.

You’re juggling operations, customer service, and growth — and on top of that, you need to market your business online. That’s where our Digital Marketing Package: Essentials for Small Business comes into play.

Since 2013, I’ve been helping businesses like yours increase visibility, generate leads, and grow revenue using digital marketing strategies that actually work. I mean, I named my business Actually for a reason!

My focus is on web design with SEO, Instagram marketing, email marketing, Pinterest campaigns, LinkedIn campaigns and keyword-driven blog content based on search intent. 

Not only that, we use effective keyword research to structure campaigns, leverage strategic communication methods to connect with core target audiences, and analyze data-driven insights. No guessing at what could work.
