Bio
Davina is an excellent and thorough up and coming Social Media Manager. She has professionally and empathetically helped us spread the word of how The Carying Place not only empowers homeless, working families with children, but is helping our growing number of social media contacts understand our mission. With her help, we believe we will increase and improve our homelessness prevention support and efforts. Thank you for your work with us, Davina!
I was looking at hiring a social media assistant and was referred to Davina Ray of Stage One Social Media for her creative and marketing skills. She has been working with me for a few months and still ongoing and has greatly assisted with her skills. She is a 'straight shooter' and works independently of any supervision. Being very result oriented, one can just delegate and she accomplishes whatever is needed. I highly recommend using her as a freelancer than the larger 'impersonal' agencies.
I have worked with Davina on a number of occasions and she is fearless in taking on projects and making sure they are exactly what you want. She has a passion for truly understanding and representing the company she is working with in enhancing the brand as well as getting measurable results on Social Media Marketing. Very responsive and works with minimum supervision. You can just delegate and she'll get it done.
