Hello everyone, I'm Mathew  Jazenko and I help restaurant owners realize their marketing goals. I just started my company this year to help local restaurants achieve their marketing goals.

Covid has been brutal on the local economy, especially restaurants. Not surprisingly big tech has not been affected. Nor has big box.

I play the organ (electric keyboard) at my church every Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday night.

You can talk to me about money and politics and you would have my attention, 10,000%.  🙂

I love to debate people on money and politics because that is how academics become better at what they do.

In his book Good to Great, author Jim Collins talks about 2 companies: Bank of America and Wells Fargo. Wells Fargo debates and argues over new ideas, which fosters innovation.

Bank of America has only yes people and that is why Bank of America is the worst bank in the USA.

My name is Adam Westfall. I have a background in the insurance and risk management industry. I like to do MMA or Comedy in my free time. I have a lot of experience in digital marketing, and I know firsthand how much work it can be as the owner and operator of my insurance agency. I believe I can help a lot of businesses in my area with their marketing strategy and I can't wait to dive in and get started. I'm looking to learn the sales and marketing process of this business from those who are already doing it successfully.

I'm assuming I introduce myself through a reply.  My name is Darlene Hull and I have just launched my digital agency (Unlimited Leads) and am working hard with the Vendasta tools to get it up and running.

I have spent 10 years as a social media consultant, I homeschooled my two (now adult) children, I'm passionate about reading, learning, my faith, and my family.

Looking forward to interacting with you all!

Darlene

Hello Everyone!  I'm a new partner with Vendasta (starting this week) with a new agency called Ask GG, specializing in supporting companies in the senior care industry in Southwest Florida.  GG is a nod to the Golden Girls, a group of women growing older and supporting each other all under one roof.  GG is also a "newly common" nickname for younger & cooler Grandmothers.  So - there it is!  I'm here to support such business like home care agencies, placement agencies, elder care attorneys, estate planners, Medicaid filers and the helpful work supporting our aging seniors.

I'm also a 10-year liveaboad boater on sailboat in the Florida Keys; Avid Traveler, having lived in 30 different counties for at least 2 weeks and many of them a month at a time; Boston-born, Hawaii-educated (12-18 years old); and constant learner.  I'm new to digital marketing but love helping people find what they want and need.  Thanks for having me as a part of this community!

Hello all! 

It’s such a pleasure to meet all of you. Being part of Vendasta and this community is truly awesome. What a great mission to help business do better. 

My name is Andrew Cordova-Andrews, and I’ve set out to change the world. I want to make the world a better place than when I came here and there’s big things I think we need to do to help. I founded HybridHELIX Consulting as a digital marketing and operations concierge to help small businesses succeed. We aspire to become a B-Corporation that will use it’s revenue to help incubate other B-Corps. 

My mission started with a company called Integrated Refreshment Logistics, an idea that took years of design (and probably needs more years of it) that me and my business partner David founded in 2014. Our mission was to provide free water to everyone, through commercially selling beverages through a system that could eventually be the true modern day upgrade that our water system needs. The B-corp mission for IRL was to help combat climate change through huge investments in research, development, and deployment of solutions using the revenue of the B-Corp. Ultimately it didn’t get off the ground - because of many reasons - some personal, some professional, and most related to lack of having a proper support system.

That latter cause - is the problem I’ve set out to solve with HybridHELIX. Helping entrepreneurs get from idea - to launch with a business literally designed for doing just that. Helping entrepreneurs get connected to the right people, education, plan, and resources to move a business to success.

So - that being said, we’re also designed a lot different than a typical startup. HybridHELIX Consulting seeks to become the world’s first #ChangeTank. A complete solution of democratic voting systems, empowerment frameworks, and complete rethinking of how to design a business - that will help empower our team members - because our team members own the business just as much as I do.

We want to find people who want todo the next right thing and achieve their dreams (for society, our clients, our business, and the world) and empower them with the resources, education, and experience to launch their own businesses. Once we reach our incubation stage, we seek to relaunch IRL as one of our first incubations.

I love to network and meet new people. If you’re interested in learning more about me or my agency I’m an open book and would love to talk. I’m looking for partners, mentors, advisors, connections, and friends 😀

 

Book a meeting with me using any of the methods below if you’re interested.

Hi Everyone, my name is Stacey M. Cole. I just completed my onboarding today, and I am thrilled to be part of the Vendasta family.

I have a background in strategic planning, education, sales, and healthcare.  I’ve created my own campaigns over the years and helped other companies build marketing campaigns.

In 2018, I decided to step out on faith and start my own consulting company. The funny thing is, what we did not know was that Covid would shift the direction and put things at a standstill.

I am excited to get my business up and running again. 

I enjoy meeting new people, photography, listening to music, dancing, and reading.

I look forward to meeting you all.

Happy Growing!

Hi! ?‍♂️

My name is Bret, I am the Communications Coordinator for Conquer Local, and I believe that social media is one of humanity's greatest innovations- maybe even above fire and the wheel. 

I'm a recent B.Comm. graduate from the University of Saskatchewan. Throughout my undergrad- I worked briefly with the National Lacrosse League, presented in Western Canada's largest business case competition, started my own business and worked with a Netflix TV personality. I regard social media so highly because it has been a major asset for me in almost everything I do- and that's not the platform, it's the people. I largely attribute things I'm proud of to the people around me and social media has only amplified that source of feedback, new information, and new perspective.

In my free time, I like to hangout with my family and friends, go to the gym, spend time at the lake, and create content to entertain. I would describe myself less-so by what I like doing and more-so by how I do it/who I do it with. I'm lucky enough to have some great people around me and we do our best to make things interesting. This is also how I approach business and aim to include it in the relationships I build throughout my time with Conquer Local.

I'm excited for the opportunity to listen and learn about how businesses are leveraging technology in 2021 and onward straight from the source on this platform. My goal is to take these insights and transform them into an understanding that I can use to facilitate the growth of the Conquer Local ecosystem and those individuals/businesses inside of it. 

I look forward to connecting! ?

Hello All! My name is Jared Moses. I am a fairly long-time partner, but my previous outing was just bad timing. I have returned and am trying to grow an agency. My background is in client relations, which is just a fancy title I've given myself for customer service specialist. 

 

My previous outing was a disaster due to poor planning and lack of engagement on the platform. Since covid hit, I lost my 9-5 and decided to work on me. Once I built some skillsets I thought would be invaluable, I decided to return.  So here I am a complete newb at entrepreneurial endeavors, looking to be a sponge and learn from others. I also hope to provide any value that I can. But as the expression, your network equals your net worth, I do hope to meet and befriend some like-minded individuals. 

 

Thanks for having me.
