Mix+Shine Marketing

Mix+Shine Marketing A social media + digital marketing agency. We find the right marketing mix to help your brand shine. As adults, we've made this passion our life’s work. Why?

After spending the first part of our marketing and PR careers working in house, at small shops and at a national agency, we decided there had to be a better way. Over margaritas one night we thought...what's stopping us from creating our own business (was it the tequila talking)? Over coffee the next morning, we were both still onboard and so Mix+Shine was born. As children, we fell in love with w

riting and telling stories. We're experts at crafting and telling your story through in-person and online mediums. But it doesn’t end there. We make sure your story is heard by your target audience so it positively impacts and drives business results. We only work with clients we love and are passionate about. Because life's too short not to enjoy what you do and who you spend your time with. What's your passion? Cheers,

Rachael Seda + April Sciacchitano

One thing about social media managers? We WILL investigate immediately. ✨

Group chat activated. Notifications on. Sudden urge to refresh every analytics dashboard 14 times. Even one tiny platform update can send the entire industry into detective mode for the next 72 hours. 😭

Behind every campaign, brainstorm, client call, and last-minute deadline is a woman making it happen, and for many on our team, that also means being a mom. 💖

Mix+Shine is proudly women-led, and this Mother’s Day feels extra special knowing so much of the heart behind our business comes from mothers balancing leadership, creativity, family, and about 47 open tabs at once. ✨

And with National Small Business Day here too, it feels like the perfect reminder that so many small businesses are powered by women doing both.

Happy Mother’s Day to the moms building businesses, raising families, and somehow still keeping everything moving. We see you, and we’re celebrating you today. 💫

If your content days feel more stressful than successful, we should talk. 💖
