Stephanie Solheim, Owner
Hi! I’m Stephanie Solheim, one of the fearless leaders of Grow With Meerkat, and I believe your business is only as strong as its weakest link. It’s incredibly fulfilling to be able to step into businesses struggling with marketing to help strengthen their business and take them to the next level.
Helping local Toledo-based businesses and women-owned businesses is sort of my jam. During the pandemic, I helped over 40 women pivot their businesses so they could thrive during a time of intense change. I’m a strategic partner with Kari DePhillips in the Sisters In SEO Facebook Group where we talk all things SEO.
Speaking of SEO, I’m also really proud of the work I’ve done to build and cultivate SEO and digital marketing retreats. Every 6 months, the top global digital marketers and SEO pros get together for strategy discussions and secret swapping in one giant mansion. Mastermind Mansion is learning and fun mixed together. We consistently draw well-known professionals in the digital space, such as Craig Campbell, Kyle Roof, Ted Kubitis, Steve Toth, and Holly Starks.

Stephanie has been into digital marketing since she was 10.

Alex Brinkman, Owner
Hey there, I’m Alex Brinkman, lover of automation and making life easier. If there is reptitive digital task in your business that costs you time each week or month, I want to find a way to automate it. Our clients love the extra time we’re able create for them in their business and personal life and it’s helped us scale our agency.
Whether it’s website design or website development, watching a site come together fuels my creative fire. My background in development and design gave me creative license to start expanding my expertise.
I also develop custom WordPress plugins. That means if your WordPress website doesn’t have a certain functionality that you want it to have or need it have, I can likely develop a plugin that can make it happen.
Over the past 5 years I’ve helped business all over the world in almost 30 countries, thanks to my best-selling WordPress plugins for the Divi Theme.
