Better Know a Sponsor: SBN Marketing

Ignite Charlotte 0 Comments

We are so pleased to have Ignite Charlotte 2 alumna Stephanie Nelson join us as a sponsor this year! Stephanie founded SBN Marketing in 2011 to help small businesses in the Greater Charlotte Metro area with social media.

Stephanie enlightened us on Personal Branding in Ignite Charlotte 2, and now she spends her time enlightening small businesses on managing their social profiles, online reputations, and picking the right social media outlets for their needs.

“Ignite Charlotte events are some of the best Charlotte has to offer as far as networking, meeting people, and exchanging ideas,” says Nelson. Stephanie decided to sponsor Ignite Charlotte 5 because “it means a lot to SBN Marketing to help keep these events happening!”

Nelson is also very active in Social Media Charlotte. The breakfast events and after-hours networking sessions “never fail to bring new ideas and new people into the SBN Marketing world.” Stephanie likes the information she’s been able to learn about co-working spaces and details about the DNC Convention.

It’s always great to have returning sponsors like SBN Marketing. Thank you for your continued support of Ignite Charlotte!

Better Know a Sponsor: Fetch Realty

Ignite Charlotte 0 Comments

Fetch Realty is the latest venture of Charlotte Realtor® Josie Mazzaferro. Fetch Realty is a full service residential property management company. Fetch will market your property, screen tenants, negotiate lease agreements, conduct move-in inspections, collect rents and manage maintenance for the property owner. Just like her loveable furbabies, Josie and her new company are loyal, hardworking, and fun. They are your best friends in the World of Charlotte Real Estate!

Josie has been a landlord for the past 6 years, and decided to open her new company to serve Charlotteans that need to move, but can’t afford to or don’t want to sell their houses at the current market values. She brings the same work ethic and zeal to this new business as she does to her work with buyers and sellers!

Josie has been very active in Charlotte’s Social Media Community, and loves the way that technology has reduced barriers to knowledge. “People can ask for help on Twitter or Facebook, and there is always someone else with the knowledge and expertise that will quickly step up and help! This environment brings out the best in everyone, and we all learn and grow and come together as a community because of it.”

“Ignite Charlotte is an in-person, concentrated version of that learning environment,” says Mazzaferro. “The community comes together and networks, while learning from the passion and expertise of others. I can’t imagine a better way to spend an evening!”

We are excited to have Fetch Realty as an Ignite Charlotte 5 sponsor!
