Summary

Lets skip the small talk and talk about hard workers!

You see, hard work beats talent, when talent doesn't work hard anyway.

In a room full of talent, you want to select the hard worker- the go getter, the bar setter and that's where I come in.

Truth is, you probably don't care that I am a self-taught fluent bilingual with a background in Marketing and that I worked in TV News as a lead talk show host at only 22 years old and contributed to some of the greatest marketing wins at luxury companies in the Big Apple. Or that I have the mind set that "the answer is never really no" and that I always want to know and understand the "why" behind strategy. (see what I did there)

No but seriously...

In a world where social media, marketing and influencership is king- the formula is simply. Sure, sure you want someone who know their way around TikTok (I can't believe I just typed out TikTok on a professional resume.) And/or someone who is undeniably great at creating a killer content strategy.

Well, you're in luck. I am that- plus more and I would love to get 5 minutes of your time to show you.

I hope to talk soon and look forward to building together.

All Good Things,

Chelsea Thompson
