Hi, I’m Kelsey.

A little about the person behind Digital Essence Creative

I help small businesses keep their websites current and their marketing moving, without adding someone to the payroll. Here’s how I got here and what it’s like to work together.

Ten years of marketing, one person in your corner

I’ve spent the last 10 years helping small businesses make sense of marketing and keep it going alongside everything else they have to do. From St. Louis to Tampa Bay and online, I’ve worked with owners who need a website that stays up to date and a way to show up consistently, but aren’t ready to hire someone full-time. That’s why I run Digital Essence Creative the way I do: you work directly with me on both the design and the thinking behind it. My goal is to make marketing feel manageable, useful, and true to your business.

How we work together

Practical support, with a real person behind it

You work with me

I’m your point of contact from our first conversation through the work itself. No hand-offs or wondering who’s handling what.

One month at a time

We choose the priorities that matter now, make progress, and adjust as your business changes.

Design meets strategy

I bring the visual work and the marketing plan together, so what we create looks good and has a purpose.

A website that stays current

I can keep your website updated as your services, hours, and business grow, whatever platform it’s built on.

Consistent visibility

We find a realistic rhythm for showing up, instead of starting from scratch every time you have a free moment.

Support that fits

Choose ongoing monthly help or bring me in for a one-off project when you have something specific to tackle.

Room to change course

Monthly plans stay flexible. If you need to stop, you can cancel with 30 days’ notice.

Clear next steps

We’ll talk through what’s on your plate and decide what I can take off it, without making things more complicated.

A Few Things You Might Be Wondering

Book a Quick Call
What types of businesses do you work with?
I work with small businesses across the board. If you run a small business and need steady marketing, we are probably a good fit.
Do I need a monthly package, or can I hire you for one project?
You can do either. Monthly plans are for ongoing help: your website, content, and email handled every month. One-time projects are for a single need like a new website, a landing page, or a content pack. Plenty of clients start with a project and move to monthly.
What's included in each monthly plan?
Please reach out to a link to my pricing page where each plan lists exactly what is covered. Care covers website updates, 2 social posts, and a monthly report. Content adds weekly posts, graphics, and 2 blog posts. Growth adds a landing page or campaign and a monthly email campaign. Bigger work gets a flat quote first.
Are there long-term contracts?
No. Everything is month-to-month. You can pause or cancel with 30 days’ notice.
Are website hosting and advertising costs included?
No. Hosting, domains, paid plugins, email platforms, stock images, and ad spend are separate costs you pay directly. I will tell you upfront if I think you need any of them.
How does onboarding work?
We start with a quick call, about 20 minutes. I ask what you are selling, who it is for, and what you hate doing. Then I get to work. Work begins during your first week, with publishing scheduled after content approval.
Can I upgrade my package as my business grows?
Yes. Start where you are comfortable and move up anytime. I will tell you when it looks like you have outgrown your plan.
