Our Story
Since 2011 we've been helping businesses build relationships using the power of digital marketing and social media. It all started with small ‘done for you' marketing packages for businesses and a Chamber of Commerce asking for help so they could increase their leads, build their awareness in the community and cultivate connections, and it has grown to a small and savvy team who are 100% dedicated to our mission.

I'm a social media consultant, strategist and speaker that loves diving into the trenches with my clients to help them see that social media can give them great results for their business or organization. I'm the founder of ElizabethtownFamily.com, a digital marketing company/blog connecting a community near Fort Knox, Kentucky, and the founder of Sweet Tea Social Marketing.
There's a whole lot more to me than just those titles and tech terms in social media.
- Top priorities and loves in life are God, my husband of fourteen years and my three sweet children
- Photography, sweet-tea, Chick-fil-A and cooking are passions I pursue and delight in every week
- A southern girl at heart, I call Columbia, South Carolina home although I've also lived in many states and Germany as a military spouse before my husband launched a new career in 2016
- I LOVE travel and enjoy our dog Annie
2011 was the year I crafted a start from scratch business, ElizabethtownFamily.com while I was in graduate school for management and leadership. I used social media 100% to grow this business from nothing to what has become one of the most active digital forms of advertisement and engaged communities near Fort Knox, Kentucky via content marketing and monetization in advertising. It is still thriving and booming and growing each year not only in visitors but in profits.
After three years of helping small business owners use my social media platforms to grow their businesses I began sharing with several of them how they too could grow their social platforms and thus, grow their business.
Not just to get more likes, but get real results, more clients in the door, more sales and more on the bottom line. In 2013 I began working for the Hardin County Chamber of Commerce as the Relationship Manager and was able to dive into deeper relationships with business owners and what motivates their decision making.
In 2014 my husband's job relocated our family to my hometown of Columbia, South Carolina where I launched and created Sweet Tea Social Marketing. I was elated that I was going to be able to help small business owners all across the country learn more about using social media to grow their businesses.
Do you want to get more results for your business but not spend all day on social media?
I think some of you find yourself heading into the office or store and quickly ponder, “Oh, I haven't posted on my business page in 3 days..I should post something…but what?…Oh, well…Hmmmm”?
Or maybe you find yourself posting 2 times a day but constantly are wondering what you should post and you completely do it at varied times and have no plan at all..just whatever strikes your fancy..
You might actually be clueless about social media or even what that really means but everyone keeps telling you should ‘be doing it'.
Beginning Itch as an Entrepreneur
I was doing social media before it was called social media.
2000 was the year I began working as a project manager in web design development and worked with large clients such as Subway, Wilson Sports and TOPS. Not to mention our office communication was ‘ICQ' a pioneer in online messaging. There was a little company my friend said I should by stock in..but I didn't listen.. (Their name was Google!).
2004-2010 I created and launched three thriving online blog communities connecting military wives, moms and women desiring to take online friendships into real-life opportunities of great family-fun. These communities were in Columbia, SC, Wiesbaden, Germany and Clarksville, Tennessee.
While in graduate school pursuing a degree in Management and Leadership, I realized that I had one priority regarding my career.
I wanted to create a new career that would allow the flexibility I want to spend time with my family.
