Hidden Gems: Meet Summer Skipper of Summer & Co. Creative Marketing

Today we’d like to introduce you to Summer Skipper.

Hi Summer, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstory.
I never imagined that one day I’d be building a digital marketing brand of my own. Like many people, I spent years supporting other businesses, watching them grow, and realizing just how much passion, creativity, and hard work it takes to turn an idea into something meaningful.

As I started learning more about digital marketing, something clicked. I realized I didn’t just enjoy creating content or learning about social media—I genuinely loved helping businesses tell their story. Every brand has something unique to offer, and I wanted to help bring those stories to life in a way that feels authentic and connects with the right people.

One day, I came across a beautiful office space. It was bright, inspiring, and exactly the kind of place I pictured myself working from one day. Instead of simply admiring it, I saved a photo and added it to my vision board. It became a daily reminder of the future I was working toward—not just an office, but a business built on creativity, purpose, and the freedom to do work I truly love.

That vision became bigger than having a beautiful workspace. It became about creating something of my own. A business where I could partner with passionate entrepreneurs, support local businesses, and help them grow with thoughtful marketing strategies and genuine online connections.

Starting this brand has been about taking a leap of faith, believing in myself, and trusting that every small step forward matters. I’m still building, still learning, and still dreaming—but that’s what makes this journey so exciting.

My goal is simple: to help businesses show up confidently online while giving them back the time and peace of mind to focus on what they do best. When my clients succeed, I succeed, and there’s nothing more rewarding than being a small part of someone else’s dream becoming a reality.

This business started with a vision board and a dream office, but it’s growing because of passion, perseverance, and a genuine love for helping others tell their story. And I can’t wait to see where this journey leads.

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
Of course building a brand from the bottom has challenges like learning new skills and building up clientele, but I’ve had many local mom friends who are entrepreneurs let me practice and it’s been fun!

Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
A digital marketer helps businesses grow their online presence by connecting them with the right audience. From creating engaging social media content and developing marketing strategies to increasing brand awareness and encouraging customer engagement, a digital marketer works to help businesses attract, connect with, and retain customers. The goal is to build a strong online presence that supports long-term business growth while allowing business owners to focus on what they do best. I think what sets me apart is I’m at an age where I am a mom, but also young enough to understand the young generation but also the older generation. I can relate to a lot of different people.

Do you have recommendations for books, apps, blogs, etc?
I like to read a lot of wellness blogs as well as marketing and finance blogs. Being in my 30’s I am trying to optimize health and success!
