It’s Meeeee, Rachel

Howdy! I’m Rachel, The (fill in the blank) behind Rachel Does Your Marketing.

That fill in the blank up there is not a mistake…it’s a nod to the fact that calling me a creative, or strategist, or director could all be accurate and at the same time, falls frustratingly short.

My career path reads like five different résumés stapled together, and I wouldn’t trade that for anything.

I’ve managed retail stores, closed eight-figure deals in oil and gas sales, built and managed a $32 million portfolio as a financial advisor, and sold clothes on a retail floor and drinks at the bar long before I was selling ideas. I started a business that broke my heart and came out the other side sharper, more steady, and far more dangerous in the best way.

All of that taught me one thing: there’s no substitute for doing the work.

Somewhere in the middle of all that zigzagging, I became a Marketing Swiss Army Knife, creative enough to design it, strategic enough to direct it, and practical enough to make sure it works in the real world.

Creative Brain Meets Business Backbone &

Every role I’ve taken taught me something about how people make decisions — and how brands earn trust. From managing teams to negotiating high-stakes contracts, I learned that marketing isn’t theory; it’s applied psychology and timing. My job is to bring that discipline into creative work that feels smart, human, and unmistakably yours.

Straight Talk,
Smart Strategy

I don’t overpromise outcomes. I listen, I analyze, and I build strategies that make sense. I’ll tell you what’s working, what’s weak, and how to fix it. I believe the best marketing is honest, well-crafted, collaborative and intentional from start to finish.

The Creative Advantage

I come from design and storytelling as much as I come from business. That mix lets me bridge the gap between strategy and art — where the visuals, words, and systems line up to actually move people. It’s equal parts intuition and structure, both grounded in results.

The “Figure It Out” Factor Delulu

If I don’t know something, I’ll learn it, fast. That curiosity is what’s kept me evolving across industries and specialties. Whether it’s a new platform, a complex funnel, or a total rebrand, I’ll find the best way to make it happen and make it look effortless while I’m at it.

You’ve read what I Do,
Now, Here’s Who I Am…

babes to my husband James
mom to our crew of critters
pumpkin to my mom & dad
sis to my brother
& Rach to my friends

I have an absolutely foul mouth that I got from my dad the fishing guide & captain.

I love a good dirty joke, that’s what she said, or in a pinch i’ll take a dad joke or pun.

I’m not religious but i’m not void of belief and faith in what we don’t yet understand.

I often exercise my ancient gathering instincts with vintage trinkets and rock hunting.

I enjoy a good audiobook and I’m currently stuck in a loop with DCC (IYKYK).

The dogs definitely sleep in the bed are allowed on any furniture they want.

I’m renovating a 1940’s cabin with my husband
(please don’t ask how much we’ve gotten done)

& holy shit I love you for reading this far.
