Meet Our Founder

Walking away from a six-figure income to start a new advertising agency makes people look at you differently, especially in a market already crowded with digital marketing companies.
Family, friends, and colleagues I worked with for over 16 years advised me against it. Approaching 40, many believed I might not have the mental or physical bandwidth for what lies ahead. But purpose and passion outweighed the advice.
As Peter Drucker said, “Whenever you see a successful business, someone once made a courageous decision.”
The idea for Media Mart was born from countless conversations with clients who were frustrated with the industry. They spoke about paying premium fees for simple tasks, website updates that took minutes, expensive keywords just to compete with larger brands, minor logo tweaks charged at high rates, $1,500 for a flyer, $300 monthly retainers for website maintenance with little real support, and even domain names marked up ten times their actual cost.
The stories were endless.
So I decided to do something about it and started Media Mart.
In our first week, we called past advertisers and simply offered help, no strings attached. One client told us his work emails had stopped working and his developer had been unresponsive for a week, preventing customers from receiving invoices. We fixed the issue in 10 minutes. The next day he switched providers and referred two other businesses facing the same problem.
That’s when we realized as a “TEAM” we were onto something.
We then reached 50 past clients offering help with anything, big or small that was slowing down their business. Eighteen responded, and we helped every one of them for free.
This gave us hope and we felt we perhaps made a good decision.
