I am Robert White, founder of Quail Advertising in Houston, TX. I have ran my own marketing agency for 23 years now, I have used Vendasta since 2019 and joined in 2020. Sorry I'm just now posting this :). I own two other companies, one being a print company and the other is a SaaS company, but Quail Advertising is my main company.

My passions are my wife and son, music, and entrepreneurship. I really have a huge passion for helping people, business owners and non business owners. I love helping newcomers that are wanting to create their own marketing agency. I know when I first got started I wish that I knew someone in advertising I could turn to when I had questions. I told myself if I was ever in the position to help someone starting out I would.

So now that all that is out of the way, I hope to meet a lot of you on here and if anyone ever has any questions feel free to reach out to me and we can always jump on a call or chat if you like.

There is a Chinese saying that goes: “If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap. If you want happiness for a day, go fishing. If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune. If you want happiness for a lifetime, help somebody.” For centuries, the greatest thinkers have suggested the same thing: Happiness is found in helping others.

| For it is in giving that we receive — Saint Francis of Assisi
| The sole meaning of life is to serve humanity — Leo Tolstoy
| We make a living by what we get; we make a life by what we give — Winston Churchill
| Giving back is as good for you as it is for those you are helping, because giving gives you purpose. When you have a purpose-driven life, you’re a happier person — Goldie Hawn

Hey Robert, 

Thanks for showing up.  Appreciate the offering hand.  I’m transition from the Army to civilian life and I just started a digital marketing agency and business coach.  I welcome any suggestions you are willing to give.  I just got Vendasta and I love the setup and the information it can provide to my clients.  I brought 2 on in the last couple weeks and was able to upsell one that I brought on.  

I believe this will enhance my clients and allow them to truly understand their business and come up with better strategy plans.    

My grandfather was a farmer and I worked with him since I was 6 years old.  One thing he use to tell me about business was “you have to always treat people well or your business will fail” this is something I always think about in my life and in business.  He was a giver and if you came to his truck and didn’t have any food he will give it to them, and say “Never not feed someone who is hungry.” I said all that to say.  Thank you for feeding us newbies ?.

 

Wishing love and blessings to you and your family. Continuous prosperity and awesome memories.

Hi! 

In the process of learning more about Vendasta and how it can help elevate my new small Copy & Content Business. 

I work with purpose-driven brands and empower writers to break into the freelance world. I'm also the CMO for TheBautistaProjectInc.org where we are working to end homelessness one person at a time (don't judge me on the website, I inherited it lol and am working on a new one)

Howdy,

  I've beed dabbling in Reputation Management, SEO and Internet Marketing for 5 years.  I'm interested in starting my own agency and plan on doing so after doing the Vendasta training (and Conquerlocal).

I enjoy disconnecting with modern life and getting outside to connect with mother nature.  I enjoy, boating, fishing, camping and trekking in the wilderness.

I've lead and managed teams selling high ticket items to professionals and plan on harnessing that experience to grow my agency.

I'm an open book and happy offer assistance where possible.

I love dogs and have a black Belgium Malinois who likes to climb trees.

@trems324 Howdy! For 5 years already, that's fantastic! I'm in awe of your pup and admire its climbing ability haha. Very happy to hear about your experiences, I hope Conquerors take advantage of that offer of assistance. If you want to fast-track getting to know our team and other partners, check out our Conquer Local webinars- I think you would get significant value out of them! Welcome to the community.

Hey team! My name is Matthew Rubino, and I am the owner of Digital Stack Media.

Although I am new to the digital marketing space, I am not new to providing long-term value to clients. Over the past ten years, I have successfully grown three different startups that provide B2B solutions within the construction and building automation industries.

I started this agency to cross-sell to my and other businesses that struggle with digital marketing. If I can learn the skills needed to be successful online, I can teach others how to do the same.

I am eager to learn from the best and welcome connecting with others in this community!

Hello everyone,

I'm new to the software side; I have been splicing coaxial, copper, and fiber—headend maintenance and builds. Plenty of disaster recovery, you name the hurricane, and most likely, I was there rebuilding—installs of just about everything and construction. 

I am probably a little older than most of you.  I've been in the Telecommunications industry for over 30 years.  Marketing has been new territory for me, but I'm learning.

I decided to take a leap and go for it; I have always liked sales now I am a provider of products and services.  The technology is the same, but the language is different, so is the application.

I have learned a lot in a bit of time but still need to know a lot more.   If any of you guys are willing to spread some of your expertise, don't be shy, I could use it. 

I gave up on hobbies don't have the time anymore. Well, I do have a hobby of studying. I would love to stay in touch to keep up and see how well you've progressed.

Here's my contact info: Company: MerrittComm LLC Email: tony@MCconnected.com   Phone: 910-220-5661

Thank you for allowing me to express myself, and I look forward to speaking to you all.

Goodbye for now. I wish you the best on each of your journeys.
