AloeRoot Web Services

At the request of a growing number of clients and colleagues, I'll be spending time this year exploring lesser-used social media sites and alternative ways of reaching the right audiences.

I'm happy to share what I learn--and will continue to offer traditional social media services for clients who want them--but I'm going to focus my own time on learning a variety of newer and more industry-specific tools. AloeRoot is still very much active; please contact me by email, phone, or through my website.

Website, marketing, and social media consultations are always free of charge:
