Marketer and Brand Strategist - Brazen Marketer
Vanessa Matthew, the owner of Brazen Marketer, is originally from Harlem. Living in Harlem in the 80s and 90s (very tough times in Harlem) set the stage for her desire to see those around her become more economically stable. She became interested in marketing, seeing it as the perfect skill set to bring back to her community. After learning from leaders in nonprofit and corporate sectors for over a decade, she launched Brazen Marketer in 2018/2019.
Brazen Marketer is based in New York City and assists small businesses and nonprofits to win new clients and donors with robust brand strategies and marketing executions. She brings to her consultancy not only experience working with nonprofits and small businesses, but extensive market research experience with larger corporations such as PepsiCo, Dr. Pepper Snapple, Hewlett-Packard, Toshiba, Chase, MasterCard, Takeda, Bentley, Cottonelle, Weight Watchers, and more.
Vanessa graduated summa cum laude with a Masters in Integrated Marketing from West Virginia University, is certified in Media Management through New York University and has a degree in Political Science from Tufts University. She is also on the Marketing Committee for the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO), Managing Associate for the Better Local Business Agency (BLBA) helping MWBE contracting firms with marketing, and on the marketing team for the Boys & Girls Club of Harlem in partnership with Experience Harlem.
