Mike started Mancini Digital (formally) in 2013 after selling his previous eCommerce company. However, he’s been working in the online world since 1999 and in the pay per click market since 2005.
Mike’s wife and 2 children would describe him as funny sarcastic, sophisticated troublesome, well-liked tolerable, and well rounded needs to lose a few pounds.
How All of This Got Started...
I’m Mike Mancini, the founder of Mancini Digital and here’s a bit on how all of this came to be.
Ever since I was very young, I’ve always been entrepreneurial. Whether it was starting the typical lawn mowing business or selling lemonade, I was always interested in having my own business. Even during college, I had a landscaping company and was employing a number of my hockey teammates.
After graduating I went to work for a couple of fortune 500 companies doing sales (that’s what I was supposed to do… right?). It was OK… but where I found it challenging was the fact that in large organizations, everything moves so slow. If you have a good idea to make things better (or make them more efficient), it might be 6 months before you would even get to have a conversation about it (if ever).
A few years later, I moved into the recruiting industry and was helping people find careers in the accounting and finance world. Again… it was OK, but it was not what I was looking for.
“Entrepreneurship is living a few years of your life like most people won’t…
So you can live the rest of your life like most people can’t.”
– A Student of Warren G. Tracy
Since I was finding very little career happiness, I decided to start a small part-time, online t-shirt business. I’d had some great success selling t-shirts in high school and college for different teams and events. Why not stick to something you’re already good at?
I was selling pop culture tees to anyone who would buy them. Although it started out slow… it soon turned into a big opportunity.
I quickly realized that the sky was the limit. If I could figure out how to sell these products to a wider market (nationwide and eventually worldwide), I could really take this business to the next level.
The problem was, at that time (2007), there were few places you could learn about online marketing.
There weren’t a lot of online courses.
Hiring a company to do it for me quickly turned into a disaster, as it seemed that I knew more about online marketing than these so called “experts”. So I dove in head first!
I completely immersed myself into the online marketing world for months… learning everything that I could… and putting it into action.
“It’s not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives. It’s what we do consistently.”
― Anthony Robbins
Within 6 months, I had sold t-shirts to 91 countries and I ran that business until 2013 when I sold it.
I knew I wanted to work with other business owners and teach them what I’ve learned and adapted over the years.
Since 2013, I’ve worked with hundreds of small and medium sized businesses, not only handling their marketing projects for them, but also coaching them and their teams on how to do it as well so that they can keep the processes internal (if they choose). This saves them tens of thousands of dollars per year in not having to obtain outside services to do their marketing.
Working with all of these different businesses allows me to learn where most businesses fail, where most business struggle and where most businesses succeed. I’d love to share all of this with you.
I have a VERY cool job in that I help people build businesses. Businesses that allow those people freedom that most people want, financial security that most people will never see, and a life to live that most people will never have. I’m extremely fortunate to work with these people and don’t take it for granted. Therefore, I consistently strive to provide more value to my clients than anyone else.
“There are no secrets to success. It’s the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.”
– Colin Powell
Working With You to Grow Your Business
I work with small business owners to help them not only plan out their marketing strategy (using several mediums), but to figure out where they’ve been leaving business on the table and then helping them set up the systems that they use for years to come.
Once they’re set up, we show them how to optimize and scale their marketing to grow their business faster than they thought possible. We help our clients:
• Map out their business goals
• Set up priorities for getting new business
• Map out a long term marketing and business strategy
• Set up systems to take most of the work out of your hands
• Automate the systems so that your business is ALWAYS moving forward
• Manage and optimize the systems that you have running so that you’re always getting better results
• Promote your business like never before
If you’re ready to take the next step, take some time and schedule a strategy session with me to discuss if us working together would be the right fit.
There are a lot of instances where we let people know that it’s probably not the right time for us to work together or what they should concentrate on BEFORE working with us. We want it to be a good fit for everyone.
We take on LIMITED clients and we’re typically booked in advance. So if you’re interested in having a call with Mancini Digital today to find out more, just schedule a time here.
