An interview with

Michele JOEL, Managing Director


I started the company with the dream of offering innovative solutions to businesses. I have a prestigious background in agency and client work. My strategic history leads me towards my dream of having my own practice and helping people turn their businesses into Gold!

Many times business owners have so many ideas but do not get the chance to execute, or know that those choices are the best for their company.

We provide social media, marketing strategy and logistic operational success.

Typical engagements range from three, six or twelve months on a retained hourly basis. We know how to work efficiently, so that you will too.

Why is the name GoldBug Group?

1. Ladybugs are good luck when you find one...we create good luck for our clients by developing a path for them to take off and fly

2. Gold is a color that is precious and rare...that's how we treat our clients, like gold

3. Goldbug is a term meaning people who like to invest in gold...we are an investment to our client's success

4. Gold-bug is a term in Edgar Allen Poe's book meaning a cryptographic treasure map...we provide the right map for clients to get to their desired destination.
