About Meg
Meg Brunson is not your typical “marketing expert.” She was a serial entrepreneur trying to provide a better life for her family, with no formal business training to rely on. After immersing herself into learning everything she possibly could about Facebook Marketing, she not only became a sought out expert in her niche, but was also sought out by Facebook themselves. While employed at Facebook, she expanded her knowledge and experiences, while maintaining her ability to simplify material so that bootstrapped businesses could promote like pros. The desire to be more present for her family (including 4 young daughters) influenced her decision to leave Facebook and return home to a life of entrepreneurship, where she currently leverages her insider secrets to help small businesses turn their Facebook Pages into profits through Ad management and mentorship.
