I'm Marissa Bracke. I could be, and have been, described as many things, but I think the best phrase to sum it all up is a Digital Business Strategist.

When I first started in business a little over eight years ago, I called myself a Can-Do-Ologist. That's still one of my favorites.

You can just call me Marissa.

Hi!

About My Work

I provide Digital Business Strategy + Implementation services for business owners who prefer pragmatism over platitudes.

My clients are purpose-driven solo and micro entrepreneurs who want to build profitable, sustainable digital businesses that support their vision and their bottom line.

With a uniquely broad perspective bridging expertise in marketing, strategy, and tech,

I advise with practical specifics while maintaining a view of how those specifics affect the whole.

And by seamlessly merging implementation services with consultancy services,

I’m able to both advise and implement alongside my clients, offering a more robust all-in-one collaboration to the solo and micro entrepreneurs who previously had only the option of seeking out multiple service providers.

Certified Digital Marketing Professional

I’m also a Certified Digital Marketing Professional,

carrying certifications across eight core disciplines: customer value optimization, customer acquisition, content marketing, email marketing, social media, search marketing, data and analytics, and optimization and testing.

(In other words, I study my field vigorously, expand my expertise ambitiously and consistently, and am endlessly fascinated by the world of digital business. You want to talk shop? Count me in.)

I take my work seriously. I do not however, take myself seriously.

I like to work with others who feel similarly. Life is too short to do otherwise.

Photo above: Kai is wearing bacon, Nick is devouring the bacon, and I'm disguised in googly eyes (while forgetting to take off my nametag – so much for a life of crime!) so I can make off with an armload of money, all while a bear wearing tinsel observes. So, you know, standard business conference stuff.

Facts About Me

In case I'm ever the topic of a Jeopardy! category, YOU will be ready.

  • I love traveling and have been as far as Australia (twice). I'm especially partial to mountains, waterfalls, and the American Southwest.
  • My “vice presidents” are my dogs, Pete and Arthur.
  • In the years between SNL famous and Late Night television famous, I had (a very brief) coffee with Jimmy Fallon.
  • I'm an attorney (not currently practicing). As such, I have the privilege of volunteering as a Judge with my county's Teen Court program. It is one of the best experiences I've had in my life, and I've proudly served in the position for over 10 years.
  • Thanks to a book I read every time I went to my grandparents' house as a child, I have a strong affinity for gnomes, and have many scattered throughout my home and office.
  • After becoming lactose intolerant a few years ago, I discovered not only do I not miss cheese, I love pizza without cheese far more than I ever did with it. (And former me would have declared that blasphemy.)
