Meet Ashley Conway, CEO of BeWeird Marketing
Hey there!
I'm Ashley.
My Story
​
I never wanted to be an entrepreneur.
My dad has owned and operated a machine shop for most of my life, and even as a child, I was very aware of the ups and downs of being a business owner.
So I wanted the exact opposite-- the corner office in a major corporation to be exact.
And I began my career at a Fortune 500 corporation, only to find that the nonstop meetings and conference call life wasn't for me.
I spent years working the 8-5 at different companies, yet I always felt unfulfilled. The age-old question of "Isn't there more to life than this?" sent me running to God.
Thankfully.
I knew I could help people beyond just increasing sales.
I prayed for months, and I continued to feel stirred to make a change.
So in 2010, I left my salaried job to experiment with new ideas. When friends hired me to do freelance marketing in 2011, I agreed to help but considered it a short-term gig. Marketing didn't feel like a worthy purpose. How could helping people sell things be God's plan for me?
​
Yet, without promoting myself or seeking work, God kept bringing me clients. And my business began doubling.
This was obviously where He wanted me. I started to look back on my career with new eyes.
God planted a new idea in my heart
I could use my experience to help other Christian businesses.
I believe business can be a force for good in the world. Just think, how many businesses do each of us interact with in a given week?
And if a business is operated with Christian values and principles, it is an opportunity for Jesus's love and light to be spread throughout neighborhoods, cities, states, countries, and eventually, the world.
That's the difference you'll find when working with me.
