A message from the founder & ceo
OUR ORIGIN
Like many of you, I was dealt a crippling, emotional blow due to the continued rising racial tension in our Nation, and I needed an outlet beyond participating in marches and protests. As a member of the black community, I needed solutions.
A little more than a year ago, I toyed with the idea of starting a small sports marketing agency but more recently felt compelled to find ways to empower the black community, specifically the black start-up and small business community. Melanated Marketing, LLC was born from the ashes of the woman I was before I witnessed, once again, my people targeted for something beyond our control...our skin color.
As Founder and CEO, I am committed to ensuring your company remains competitive now and in the future through proven and effective digital marketing services. We're with you every step of your business journey.
