Lisa Jackson | Founder
My name is Lisa Jackson and Straight Talk Social is my brain child. Some may only think of me as a Personal Trainer for the rest of my life (and that’s ok), but what I’ve really been doing for the last 25 years is working in & on corporate franchises. I have been involved in everything from: pre-sale marketing to new store openings. I have hired, trained, & developed teams along with having created major marketing plans & campaigns. I’ve been developing social media pages, groups and events since Facebook’s inception. It is true that I will always love fitness (insert Whitney Houston’s voice here). Actually, what I truly love is BUSINESS.
So Now the Why… I have been entrusted to manage businesses for 25 years. Throughout my career, I discovered a common thread with my owners in Generation X. They were extraordinary at the grind of business yet when it came to technology itself, there was a major area of opportunity. I completely understood why too.
My Generation X was in College learning the inner workings of their desired industry. While I, although part of Generation X, was reading the very first book written about Instagram which was outdated 2 months after I read it. Who could keep up with the speed of Social Media’s evolution if you weren’t actively trying? A divide was created.
Those who were somewhat Social Media savvy played a little bit with their business and started to see value. Then they booked an appointment with a marketing agency where the Agent used terms like Algorithm, SEO and Engagement. I watched my owner’s eyes glaze over and the value was lost in translation. I knew I could help translate the purpose and value in a way that could make an owner truly understand. Straight Talk Social was born.
