In this episode, I interview Gail Mercer-Mackay, the Founder and CEO of Mercer-Mackay Digital Solutions based in the province of Ontario, Canada. The company is dedicated to helping technology companies market their brands through storytelling using website copy, blogs, case studies, eBooks, and other digital content.

With years of sales & marketing experience gained at technology firms, Gail founded her own digital marketing company in her early 50s in 2007. Along with her passion and enthusiasm for storytelling, she's committed to helping people build valuable business and personal connections.
