Marketing agency owner dedicated to generating leads and visibility, for brands online through tailored social media strategies and content creation
I’m Melanie, the owner of NovaStar Creative, a Boston-based marketing agency. We help driven, 6-figure brands generate consistent leads and visibility online without disrupting their business operations. In our first month of posting for a new client, we increased their reach by 300%, profile activity by 150%, and engagement by 650%. From there, we averaged 40,000 views per month on their content and consistently improved our target metrics. From custom strategies to full-service management and UGC-style content, I work with high-performing entrepreneurs who are ready to elevate their presence and build a long-term brand organically.
