We had the good fortune of connecting with Corie Raine and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Corie, what’s something about your industry that outsiders are probably unaware of?
One major take away for me is that Digital Marketing isn’t just “posting pictures and creating videos.” Digital Marketing is a skill, and it’s a skilled acquired over time. It takes true talent, determination and consistency to see the fruits of your labor in this industry. Never giving up is key in this number driven platform.
Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
As a College Graduate, moving to Atlanta was a lifelong dream. I also knew this is where my journey would take me, and I couldn’t be happier. I’ve learned life here, I’ve learned myself here and that is something that considered my grand prize. It has not been easy. it has not been a walk in the park for me at all, but what keeps me going is my end goal. My end goal always keeps me balanced, because right when things are getting tough I always remember why I am here. Becoming a Business Owner has always been the goal, I just needed to find my Niche – which actually found me. I know that sounds odd, but it truly found me and I couldn’t be happier. Helping corporate companies create the vision for their own marketing and branding really gave me the insight I needed to proceed with helping micro-influencer do the same for themselves. Helping and being able to be of service to others really is my favorite aspect of what I do. Digital Marketing is paving a way for me and I am excited to see where It takes me. My motto is Network to build your NET-WORTH, and I am leading by example by doing just that. Leadership is a verb – it is what you do.
Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
WOW! Great question, my favorite places in the city? Well, I absolutely LOVE Ponce City Market, it’s something about the diversity of Atlanta that you can not miss when visiting there, in addition to Little Five Points for sure five stars! I also love the Atlantic Station, any shoppes outdoors – I am there. True Wisconsin Girl. As far as entertainment, I love Suite Lounge for a Nice brunch, CRU, and if you are here it is a must you try The Juicy Crab for your Seafood cravings. Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Special Shoutout to my true friends and supporters. Without those individuals, my first year of business wouldn’t be half it is today. Major love to VoyageATL as well, Voyage always shows me love and my business wouldn’t be locally recognized if it hadn’t been from the support.
