Experience Makes All the Difference
President Karon Thackston has over 25 years
combined experience in marketing, advertising, copywriting
and SEO copywriting. She understands the processes involved
with creating various advertising strategies.
For example, Karon knows the advertising copy
has to work well with the photos and the layout of a brochure.
She understands SEO copy must consist of a delicate balance
of keywords and phrases, target audience psychographics and
facts. Otherwise the message won't be easily accepted and
the search engine rankings will be destroyed.
Taking the time to do the research and master
the processes behind the scenes allows Karon to offer you
better quality services.
