Notes from clients

What it's like to work with me.

"Michelle was incredibly knowledgeable and brought ideas to the table I hadn't even considered. She took all the stress out of the process and the result was worth every penny."

Nicole Roeseler Advancing Communities Forward

"Michelle runs the brand and website work for both of my companies and treats them like they're her own. She brings ideas I'd never have thought of, makes the whole process painless, and always delivers. If you want someone who handles all of it and gets it right, she's the one."

Mike Bradley NorCal Pool Productions & Aurora Vida

"Michelle manages all of my marketing, from website and email to social and technical troubleshooting, and no matter the issue she finds a solution quickly and effectively. She puts her clients first and makes sure everything is handled on time, every time. 10/10, I cannot recommend her enough."

Heidi Hemler Zuda Yoga

"I came to Michelle with a vague idea and walked away with a brand and website that finally matched the vision in my head. She handles the strategy, the design, and all the tech I don't understand, so I can stay focused on the work I actually love. Hiring her was one of the best decisions I've made for my business."

Michelle Tilton, founder of Raeve Marketing

Hi, I'm Michelle.

A senior marketing strategist running Raeve Marketing for the work I love most.

That looks like helping a nonprofit build the site that brings in their donors. Sitting down with a small business owner to figure out why their messaging wasn't landing.

Small businesses and nonprofits deserve senior-level work, charged like a human. That's the whole thesis. No team to hand you off to, no junior account manager to translate. Just me, your project, and the kind of attention your work actually deserves.
