Helping even the smallest businesses find their footing.

We have the tools and templates to make your dream succeed on its own terms.
From side gigs to start-ups, Margo makes marketing make sense.
The late-night Google searches for "best marketing strategies". There are endless second-guessing questions about where to focus your marketing budget.The confusion about which channels actually work for your business?

It doesn't need to be this way. Margo helps you translate how your unique audience, products, and brand intersect with the marketing tools and channels that are available to help you grow.
‍
Marketing is a continual experiment that most founders don't have prior experience running. Margo launched our marketing operating system, or OS, to help every founder and small business owner get the support they need to grow.

Grow on your terms

Hockey stick growth and last-minute capital injections may be the norm in Silicon Valley, but most small, growing businesses only operate because of the founder or early team's blood, sweat, and tears. Your marketing strategy should reflect the realities of how you run your business - and must balance sustainability and cash flow as you grow.

We aren't a venture-backed company. Margo is bootstrapped, and our growth is funded by revenue and cash flow. We understand how crippling the pinch can be when everything isn't flowing smoothly and that you can't just throw money at problems — creative problem-solving and knowing how to do more with less is what keeps the lights on.

Meet Margo's founder, Paige Hewlett

Paige is a marketing leader, entrepreneur, start-up advisor, and university professor. She has 20 years of marketing and revenue growth experience as a marketing leader or business owner. Paige anticipated embarking on a sabbatical to Portugal in 2020 when COVID threw a wrench in her plans. Instead, she got to work on her vision for Margo, an easy-to-use marketing operating system to help small business owners get marketing traction and find freelance marketing partners to do the heavy lifting.

She continues to mentor within local incubators, advise businesses, and occasionally serves as an adjunct professor. Paige earned an undergraduate degree in international business from Texas A&M University and two master's degrees, one in marketing and one in international economics.
‍
In January 2023, Paige experienced a major medical event that triggered months of follow-up and rehabilitation, during which Margo was put on standby. Now, Paige is bringing Margo back to life—with a slightly different perspective: life's too short for bad marketing.
‍
Eventually, she and her family spent two months in Portugal (life must be lived!), and they can't wait to return. After starting Margo in Portland, she now lives in Austin with her two kids and their pup, Rosie. You can read more about Paige's journey here.
