Clara Baldwin

I can get the ball rolling quickly and would love to work with you! My marketing portfolio / website is: www.gpsmarketing.info (I am a one-woman business, but I have specialists who step in for special tasks. Other than that, I'm a freelancer essentially) Follow my business Instagram to see some of my graphics and work: www.instagram.com/groundplanstudio Letter: Growing up facing a lot of adversity, I used marketing as a tool to not only pay for my college but take care of my mom and siblings as well. Since I was 16 years old, I was a self-taught web developer and coder. I funded a drop-shipping company that funded my academic career at Westminster College in Fulton, Missouri. There I enrolled into various business and computer science classes for my degree. While in college, I continued to develop my skills in advertisement, analytics, and social media. I recently sold my drop shipping company and launched a domestic abuse Non-Profit called Peace Over Pieces which conducts interviews and podcasts with victims while gathering donations all over the world. I recently moved from a corporate marketing agency to creating my own called Ground Plan Studio (www.gpsmarketing.info). My dream was to create a small agency filled with people who do the highest quality work and builds strong relationships with our clients. Marketing is not just a career to me, it’s an area I genuinely enjoy and constantly try to improve. I bring unique strategies and algorithms to the table to create a presence online. I am more than confident in my skills in any type of marketing and sales project. This opportunity to work with your project offers a higher level of autonomy and independence. I've always desired to be somewhere that offers more mobility and a place where I will be long-term. I'm very familiar with remote positions and am a quick learner. For 6 years I have been advancing my skills in social media and marketing with my own businesses and now want to move on from them to grow other brands. I will be passionate about the work given and have the company’s best interest. Why I am a good candidate: -Nominated for Top 100 Marketing and Advertising Leaders of MADCon USA, Business Woman of the Year, etc. Awards for credentials. -I am against old-fashioned marketing and bring fresh strategy to the table. I'd say 90% of business profiles are outdated. Posting and hoping to blow up. It is more intricate than that and your profile can't be standstill. -I have 10 years of experience in project management and digital marketing. -I build strong relationships and genuinely care about their businesses/willing to help 24/7 for last minute needs. -I am advanced in ad creation, graphic design, content creation, strategy creation, etc. I am hands on and know 100% how to grow an account fast using strategies not many marketers know. I stray away from old fashioned techniques to run campaigns; I know more interpersonal techniques to get genuine and loyal followers. -I have my own non-profit that has a podcast as well, circulates thousands of engagements per month. -I owned a drop shipping company that had 25,000+ total followers on social media. -I am just as passionate for my small businesses and individuals as I am working with the large corporations and celebrities. Among my portfolio, it ranges from start-ups, to large corporations, celebrities, and professional athletes. -I have worked for a marketing company that handles complex and huge corporate clients. But I also enjoy working with individuals and small businesses. Note: Starting out I want to do the best market research as possible before starting. I will provide a free presentation that breaks down strategy approach and budget so we're both on the same page.
