Marketing for Farms • The Carolinas
Speaking Engagements & Educational Workshops
You focus on running the farm. I’ll help make sure people can find it.
Speaking Engagements & Educational Workshops
One of my favorite parts of what I do is getting in front of a room full of farmers, ranchers, agricultural leaders, military veterans, rural entrepreneurs, and small business owners and helping them see marketing in a way that actually makes sense.
Let’s be honest—marketing can feel overwhelming.
Algorithms, hashtags, content calendars, branding, customer engagement… it can quickly start to feel like a second full-time job. That’s why my goal is to break down marketing and business development into practical, real-world strategies that Carolina farms and rural businesses can actually use.
I believe the best learning happens when people leave with ideas they can implement immediately—not just a notebook full of notes they’ll never look at again.
My presentations are interactive, relatable, and filled with examples from real farms, ranches, agritourism destinations, farmers markets, and agricultural businesses throughout North and South Carolina. Attendees can expect practical takeaways, honest conversations, and plenty of real-life success stories that demonstrate what’s working in today’s marketplace.
Whether I’m speaking to a room of beginning farmers, seasoned producers, agricultural organizations, veteran farmers, women in agriculture, rural entrepreneurs, or small business owners, my focus remains the same: helping people build stronger businesses and connect with more customers.

What Makes These Workshops Different?
I don’t teach theory.
I teach what I’ve seen work firsthand while working with farms, ranches, agritourism destinations, event venues, farmers markets, and rural businesses across the Carolinas.
Every presentation is customized to the audience and designed to leave attendees feeling empowered, inspired, and equipped with practical tools they can start using immediately.
Because at the end of the day, my mission is simple: help more Carolina farms and rural businesses tell their story, reach more customers, and build businesses that thrive for generations to come.
If you’re looking for a speaker who understands agriculture, speaks the language of rural business, and can make marketing feel a whole lot less intimidating, I’d love to be part of your next event.
