Crystal Oakes
Designer. Business Owner. Public Speaker.
Let me tell you – I LOVE people. I love meeting them. Laughing with them. Learning from them. Growing alongside them. And, one of my favorites, teaching them.
We can learn a lot about ourselves and our industry from others. One of the reasons I’m in love with public speaking is that I not only have the chance to pass on my experience to other entrepreneurs, but I also learn from their thoughtful questions and insight.
That being said, I’d LOVE to be a part of your event. Whether you are hosting a zoom panel or a branding brunch, I’m SO there.
Hi, I’m Crystal!
You may know me as the owner of Oakes Creative House. I am! And I love it. At OCH, I passionately help small businesses and nonprofits level up their marketing and branding. My team and I offer support for all things writing, designing and web-development. BUT, as a small business owner myself, I know that there isn’t always the budget to hire a full-service agency, especially as you’re just getting started.
That’s why I love speaking and educating.
In my 15 years as a marketer, I’ve marketed in 22 countries, completed a corporate website relaunch in 6 languages, oversaw the creation of over 90 websites, 175 logos, 60 catalogs, 200 photoshoots and have helped over 355 clients level-up their branding!*
That being said, I have experience to go around! And I want to share it with you. Whether you are looking to learn how to establish and accomplish business goals, get started on a refreshed, professional-level brand, or learn how to become a master freelancer, I’ve got you!
As someone who was once a freelancer and new business owner, and who now owns a rapidly growing business, I’m ready to meet you where you are at and help you turn passion into success.
