Escend Media

As the Founder of Escend Media, my mission is to empower businesses to create meaningful relationships with their audiences through highly targeted and compelling email marketing strategies. 

We help DTC brands increase profit, repeat purchases and LTV with email marketing. 

We focus on cultivating authentic, long-lasting relationships with your customers, instead of just pushing 'sales' content down people's throat day in and day out. We meticulously craft an engaging customer experience and manage it end to end, from strategic planning and compelling copywriting to on-brand design. Our data-driven approach also includes A/B testing and optimization, ensuring that each customer interaction is as personalized and as profitable as possible.

Digital Distillery

It takes time, patience and a sound strategy to build and grow a business in 2020. I help business owners, freelancers and other agency owners overcome the challenges of starting, growing and scaling their businesses online. I help coach 4 different types of people:

Visionaries 💭: You are at the beginning stages of starting up a brand. If you’re not sure who your ideal customer avatar is, you don’t have a funnel mapped out yet or you are in the early stages of growth, but have MASSIVE aspirations, this is you.
 
Innovators 🙌 : You are in the midst of developing, or who have developed, a new & innovative product. If you’ve got a product and want to be first to market, if you’re doing a pre-launch or you are looking to disrupt an industry, this is you.
 
Entrepreneur In-Momentum 🌊: You have been around the block in business. If you’re the CEO or Marketing director of an established company, you’re looking to expand your target market or enter the Facebook advertising space, this is you.
 
Let’s Scale This Puppy📈: You have the budget and the drive to scale their business to the moon. If you’ve got a business with proof of concept, you’ve consistently hit 5-figure months and you have the inventory and budget to scale, this is you.
