Have you ever met a real life fairy godmother?
Isn’t it amazing when someone has the ability to hear your vision and turn it into reality?
That’s been my experience with Inbound Studio in Burnsville.
Founder and CEO Marshall Mullet and Marketing Specialist Olivia Wolbert are the driving force behind this small business whose mission is to make other businesses shine. Their signature services are web design, web development, CRM optimization, Zoho for small business, digital marketing and video production.
Their purpose? To help your business connect more effectively with your current and future customers through efficiently targeted marketing technology. “I love helping others. I love helping other companies grow through the work we do for them,” reflected Olivia. “Seeing others thrive fuels my fire.”
Inbound Studio is heavily invested in the Twin Cities on both a professional and personal level. “Our morals and goals guide each of our efforts. We’ve always been committed to serving our local community through volunteering, leading, and sharing positive feedback about other local businesses,” shared Olivia. “We honor our clients by doing what we promised on time and on budget. We want to make sure that we are supporting the client’s needs.”
“Building solid relationships with our clients is important to me,” explained Olivia when asked about her favorite part of developing client projects. “I make sure that my communication is in a timely manner so that I can get each client what they need.”
This close team has deep market expertise. “We’ve hired top-tier custom website designers, web developers, BigCommerce, and Shopify experts. We also have exceptional video and digital marketing talent.” They keep pace with the fast rate of innovation in digital communication. “We are constantly learning to help help our clients stay ahead.”
The website design process with Inbound is highly personalized. They encourage your feedback during the creation phase and beyond. They creatively provide each client with a customized experience that 
enhances their digital communcations. At the same time, Inbound is conscious of their customer’s budgetary needs. “We simply try not to overcharge or over-engineer so that our services are accessible and reasonable for small businesses and non profits,” stated Olivia.
The best part about being an employee at a small business? “The connections with clients and the opportunity to really see the ins and outs of a business,” smiled Olivia. “I know exactly why we are working and who we are working for. It’s a powerful feeling to do something to help others every day.”
Inbound Studio provide both short and long-term services. They host websites, run security, provide data analysis, and other IT support. They use their marketing skills to strengthen customers’ website and social media communications as well as newsletters to enhance client relationships.
Inbound Studio is a Premier Sponsor of the inaugural Meet the Minnesota Makers Holiday Gift Guide. Behind the scenes, Olivia and Michelle worked to organize and present more than 100 Minnesota businesses to make it easier for you to shop locally this holiday season. “This was such a fun project! It was so cool to learn about these local entrepreneurs, most of which I had not heard of before,” enthused Olivia.
As the former owner of a nutrition and fitness company, Olivia was especially excited to learn about 3 bear oats and their organic, locally-sourced, premade steel cut oat bowls. For her own shopping list, bags and leather products from Bags by Alex and wool mittens from Ornute definitely caught her eye. “This guide has so many great ways to support and shop local!”
Inbound Studio is available to consult over the phone, video chat or in person to shape the product that’s the right fit for your business. “We are ready to support anyone in growing their business through marketing, website build outs, and CRM or Zoho support.”
