Next up we had on small business marketing expert and web design guru Erik Wolf with Zero-G Creative. Erik has leveraged his corporate experience in several diverse industries like packaged goods, information technology and journalism into a thriving small business marketing consulting business. Heading the marketing communications department of a global manufacturer helped prepare Erik for his work with small business owners at Zero-G Creative.

Working in the corporate sphere and tasked with the job of managing traditional advertising, marketing and design agencies as well as freelance designers, Erik quickly learned that the system was flawed — and that very few companies were well-suited to serve the small and medium-sized businesses that he worked for. Realizing that his experience made him uniquely qualified to help small business owners market their products and services.
