So, who am I?
Highschool for me was torture. I had severe anxiety which was one of the reasons I dropped out and got my GED. Using all of the web design, photography, and growing social media skills I landed my first social media job while I was attending a local two year community college.
After having my daughters I realized I NEEDED MORE FREEDOM and that I could use all of my skills to help other small businesses with social media. I launched Pierce Social in July of 2016 and gave my notice at my 9 to 5 only 3 months later in October!
Now I am helping others do the same! I have a variety of ways to work with me to help grow your business. Want to read more about how I quit my job in only 90 days? Read below!

Since taking Kaitlyn’s program I’ve gone from having a couple of paying customers and several non paying customers to all paying customers, and it looks like I’ll be grossing over $100K this year!!!! Thank you so much, Kaitlyn for giving me the validation and confidence I needed to make my business successful. I’m preparing to hire a business manager, as well as an assistant so that I can continue taking on new clients. The sky is the limit and I couldn’t be more thankful for everything I learned from you and my course mates!
This course was all around amazing. It touched every area you will need to learn as a Social Media Manager. Even if you’ve been doing this for a while, you will find some valuable information and resources here. Kaitlyn is a pro and she was VERY generous with her knowledge and information. I was confidently ready to launch by the end of this course. I thought she did everything short of doing it for me. She shared a lot of valuable information and resources.
Working with Kaitlyn has helped me to become clearer on my processes and boosted my confidence as a social media manager. She’s easy to talk to and I feel comfortable asking her any questions, even the silly little ones! Thanks to Kaitlyn, I have polished my client onboarding process which I feel is now more helpful, professional and streamlined. I’m looking forward to working with her more throughout my SMM business journey. Highly recommended!
