Instead of being presented as two halves
Jade Phillips and Alissa Trumbull
I’ve been working in marketing for just over 3 years now and I’ve also been an athlete from the age of 15. So, you could say that my career path hasn’t been the most traditional!

I knew that I wanted to work beyond the health and fitness industry but I had no idea what direction I wanted to go in.
Managing Social Media Without a Budget in 4 Steps
Social media can be a handful. Especially if you’re running a start-up and the marketing, social media and other duties are being handled by me, myself and I. While I do believe that social media is a valuable asset that should be invested in, we all have to start somewhere.
