After several decades in corporate and nonprofit positions, and 19 + years of running Marketing @ Work, I am retiring! My heartfelt thanks goes out to the many wonderful clients we've served through the years, and to the colleagues and friends I've made (most of those colleagues are retired!)

It's been such a pleasure serving the Frederick community - not only through my business, but in many other ways.

If you have marketing, design or website needs, and would like a referral, contact me and I'll put you in touch with the talented professionals who have been part of Marketing @ Work.

It's no secret that labor shortages are a major concern for businesses both large and small in the post-pandemic world.

But small small business owners are particularly hard hit because they ofter take up the slack. Half say they’re working more hours than they were a year ago. This bears out the experiences of our clients.

One way to find staff? A study from the Aberdeen Group cited by PostBeyond.com found that 73 percent of millennials found their last position through a social media platform. To target that motivated group, make sure that you use platforms that appeal to them.
