Seeking a mentor to help me expand my multimedia and digital marketing company

Veteran

Michael Davis Glen Burnie , MD

Hello,

I’ve established a multimedia and digital marketing company (Enriched Images) that I need help with expanding.

My company will offer positive and faith-based multimedia content and provide digital marketing services to churches, small ministries and other organizations that seek to make a positive change in the world.

My company will also serve as a platform for me to produce documentaries that aim to serve the same purpose.

I have a big vision for my company, but need help with making this a successful business.

Contact Upwork - https://www.upwork.com/

They can help you with web development, SEO, and branding. Once you have a stellar presentation via a website you can better pitch your services to a traditionally cash strapped and very conservative market.

I used Upwork (formerly Odesk) to redesign the website for my son-in-law's business. The original website cost > $4000 to develop. Upwork charged <$400 and finished in a week.

Hi Michael,

Sounds like a noble mission and service that your small business, Enriched Images, is providing. When it comes to scaling a small business, increasing presence and branding by leveraging various social media platforms may be advantageous.

Check out this article on this very topic written in Forbes:

Additionally, I recommend utilizing ACP AdvisorNet's Community feature to pinpoint Advisors who are well-versed having owned and operated small businesses to ask them more specific questions and tips/pointers in growing your business further.

I hope this proves to be helpful and wish you the best of luck!
