Marketing Assistant
As a hands-on marketer, Karlie brings a unique and grounded perspective to the VantagePoint team, shaped by her diverse background in business ownership, family farming, and early childhood education. Her journey, from running a direct-market protein business, Ten Creek Range, while raising four young children, to advocating for families in Early HeadStart, instilled in her a wealth of patience, organizational skills, and a practical understanding of various markets.
Now, with a renewed passion for marketing, she applies these skills to help clients succeed. Karlie is dedicated to ensuring every marketing action has a solid "rhyme and reason," working diligently to connect businesses with their ideal customers.
Stoney Creek Farm
I was raised here in Redwood Falls, where my family farm, Stoney Creek Farm, is located. I grew up with the farm as a place of education, hosting classes and educators from all over the country and world. The farm works collaboratively with companies like General Mills to further the understanding of soil health and the critical connection between soil health, water quality, and human health. In recent years, our family and the farm have been featured in the documentary, "Farmers Footprint," and received the 2024 Leopold Conservation Award: Minnesota. Carrying on my parents' educational spirit is something I am very passionate about.
Personal Introduction
Hello! I'm Karlie. I specialize in the details, from analytics and graphic design to content creation, social media management, and client relations. I love the process of problem-solving and bringing visual order to a client's marketing strategy. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing a target market finally find a company that simply needed the right strategy to be seen.
