👋 Welcome everyone! Happy you’re here! I myself started my career as a social media manager and now am a community strategist on the Arb! I love to learn all about you and what has brought you to this point in your careers!

Can’t wait to meet you all!


Hey Folks - 

 

I’m Geoff Strawbridge, an agency owner and marketer for the past 20 years. I’ve got a small marketing firm based out of Vermont called the Bootstrap Collective. My work has spanned a few decades. I started in the early days (web1, web2) and have been active with organic social, paid social, organic search, paid search, paid ads, analytics, ecom, web dev, email, etc. 

Fun fact: I built an online health & wellness community using message boards, posts, and tools before Facebook/Meta and even before YouTube. We hired a bunch of qualified RD’s and ACSM’s fitness trainers and used chat, messages and proprietary video to support the community. 

 

 


Hi. thank you for the warm welcome 

I actually run my own company and launched few brands. while the economic situation forced us to let go of the marketing team. we are still doing the effort ourselves. 

I have a marketing and media background, and currently own and manage an F&B company 


@geoff.strawbridge took a look at your website, love all the work! Is the primary focus food and hospitality?


Welcome everyone! I’m Laura from the Arboretum team, based out of Seattle. We are excited you are here! Please let me or @Jonathan Zuluaga know if you need anything, we would be happy to help!


Thanks Jonathan, yes we’re primarily focused on food and beverages and hospitality
