Summary
I discovered my true passion during J-term when I launched Growth Corner Marketing, combining my psychology background with my drive to help local businesses thrive. After seeing my dad's insurance agency struggle, I dove in headfirst and transformed his metrics - boosting organic search, increasing page views, and slashing bounce rates through strategic optimization. I've built this from the ground up, and now we're laser-focused on three core pillars: lead generation, conversion psychology, and maximizing customer lifetime value. Starting with just $300 monthly revenue, we're scaling fast with two clients and aiming for eight by August. I'm not just building a business; I'm creating a movement to empower small businesses through data-driven growth.
