Who I am
I'm Leia Owen, a marketing and business consultant based in Hudson and Marlborough, Massachusetts. I started freelancing in 2015, went full-time in December 2019, and have since worked with more than 300 businesses, nonprofits, schools, and community organizations across MetroWest. My team and collaborators and I help local organizations tell their stories clearly, show up consistently, and build real relationships with the people they serve. The Holiday Stroll is one of my favorite nights of the year. As a sponsor, and as President of the Hudson Business Association, which puts on the Stroll, I get to see downtown Hudson at its best: families out shopping, businesses lit up, and neighbors catching up on Main Street.
President, Hudson Business Association
Board of Directors, Marlborough Regional Chamber of Commerce
2026 Rising Star Award, Marlborough Regional Chamber of Commerce
Best Photographer/Videographer, 2026 MetroWest Community's Choice Awards
For Stroll businesses and sponsors
The Stroll brings a wave of new faces through your door. The real win is turning those visitors into regulars in January and beyond. In your strategy session we'll plan how to follow up after the Stroll, grow your email list, and keep people coming back all year.
For everyone who came to stroll
If you run a business, a nonprofit, or a community group and liked what you saw downtown, I'd love to help you get your own marketing on track for the new year.

Frequently asked questions
Who is the strategy session for?
Owners and leaders of small businesses, nonprofits, and community organizations who want a clear marketing plan, whether you do it yourself, with your team, or with us.
What happens in 90 minutes?
We look at where you are now (your website, social media, Google listing, email, and events), talk through your goals and busy seasons, and map out the priorities that will make the biggest difference. You'll leave with written next steps.
Do I have to sign up for ongoing services?
No. Plenty of people use the session to build a plan they carry out themselves. If you want help after, we'll talk about what that could look like.
In person or online?
Either. We can meet at our Hudson office on Main Street, at Venture X in Marlborough, or over video.
How do I book?
Email hello@leiamowen.com and mention your group. We'll reply with available times and the current session rate.
