About Clay

I help organizations clarify their message so the right people understand it, trust it, and act on it.

For more than a decade, I’ve worked in digital marketing as a marketing manager, SEO manager, and agency partner—helping nonprofits and small businesses turn confusion into clarity and attention into action. My work is grounded in a simple conviction: effective marketing starts with deeply understanding your customer’s needs, not showing off your brand.

I build messaging and digital experiences around that principle—clear language, purposeful design, and strategy that serves real human problems. I’m shaped heavily by the StoryBrand framework, which keeps the customer at the center of every decision, and by disciplined writing principles that strip away fluff and force every word to earn its place.

Practically speaking, I bring strong execution to match the strategy. I work daily in WordPress and Elementor, am Google-certified in Analytics, and regularly use Google Tag Manager, Google Ads, Google Search Console, Semrush, and Page Optimizer Pro to guide decisions with data—not guesses.

I live and work in Kansas City and partner with organizations that want marketing that’s thoughtful, honest, and effective—not trendy, noisy, or self-absorbed. If your goal is to connect with people clearly and serve them well, we’ll get along just fine.

Digital marketing for nonprofit organizations isn’t about chasing trends or shouting louder. It’s about clarity, consistency, and meeting the right people at the right moment.

Nonprofits face a unique challenge online: limited resources, high expectations, and a mission that deserves to be understood—not oversimplified. A strong digital marketing strategy helps nonprofit organizations reach supporters, build trust, and turn attention into meaningful engagement.

Through focused digital marketing—websites, content, email, and search—I help nonprofit organizations tell their story clearly and connect with people who care about their work. The goal isn’t just visibility. It’s alignment between your mission, your message, and the audiences you serve.

Effective digital marketing for nonprofit organizations creates momentum over time. It strengthens credibility, supports fundraising and outreach efforts, and ensures your online presence is working for you, not becoming another burden. My approach is practical, sustainable, and built around the realities nonprofits actually face.

For small businesses, a strong digital marketing strategy is key to standing out in a competitive market. Small businesses need effective marketing strategies that help them reach their goals by connecting with their audience on a personal level. Through digital marketing efforts—like social media, content creation, and targeted email campaigns—small businesses can build meaningful relationships with their customers, grow their brand, and increase visibility online. Leveraging tools like Google Analytics and keyword search optimization, I help small businesses make informed decisions that drive results. My approach combines personalized content marketing, social media engagement, and a comprehensive marketing strategy to give small businesses the support they need to succeed in today’s digital landscape.
