Today we’d like to introduce you to Beth Marie Robinson.
Beth Marie, can you briefly walk us through your story – how you started and how you got to where you are today.
It all started with working in luxury retail on Newbury Street in Boston. I worked part-time in sales at a beautiful all-things French boutique. Retail can get boring so I started creating a monthly newsletter using Constant Contact and then along came Facebook for businesses and created a page for the store. I also worked part-time for an interior designer at the Boston Design Center and started doing their social media and email marketing. I am self-taught and have been doing social media marketing for the last 10 years.
One-on-one teaching and training came into the fold when my Dad retired and his colleagues gave him a computer. I set it up for him and taught him how to use basic email and have been teaching and training him from then on with his smart phone and apps setting up a Facebook profile, Instagram, Skype, and even helped him with his e-harmony profile! BTW, he met a wonderful woman and they have been dating for over a year.
He is now 82 and has more tech gadgets than I do! I created a tech monster!
Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
I have been extremely fortunate and realized the potential for social media for businesses years before it became a necessity to use social media in one’s marketing strategy today. I also realized the hustle when I started my business. I networked, joined my local chamber of commerce and networking groups. I also donated my expertise to several non-profits. It really paid off as I got an excellent reputation and work right from the start.
