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. I had the pleasure of presenting "AI for Business: Work Smarter Without Losing the Human Touch" to WBN in September 2026. The conversations that followed are a big reason this page exists: so many members are juggling everything at once and want marketing that actually fits their week.

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.
