Episode 007: Mastering Brand Sponsorships & Collaborations with Morgan Molitor (Part 1)
Meet Morgan Molitor
Morgan is one half and co-founder of construction2style, and wife to Jamie Molitor. Morgan wanted to create construction2style (or c2s for short) to document Jamieβs first fixer upper and show people just how easy they could DIY too. She started solely writing but was quickly swinging a hammer alongside Jamie too.
Graduating from a college in Long Beach, CA with a fashion merchandising and marketing degree, Morgan has now taken that creativity and knowledge to use within client homes and their blog. Morgan oversees all the content creation, is the writing guru, and lead interior stylist for construction2style. She also heads up their online education courses and monthly marketing workshops.
As a business owner, she wears a lot of hats but her expertise is in collaboration, always thinking about 100 different ways to optimize any project theyβre working on.
Morgan doesnβt have any type of interior design certification, but thanks to digital marketing and her passion for interiors, sheβs been able to build a successful interior design + contracting business, that includes certified designers on their team.
Sheβs a forward thinker, a risk taker, and isnβt scared to tell you that the tile you picked out is really outdated. But will still install it happily for you! You can always find an infectious smile on her face and hear her contagious laugh.
How many of you follower influencers across different industries, wondering to yourself how, you too, could work with brands & what that would mean for you as a designer
Youβd love to be the face of a brand you believe in, even if itβs only for a moment, but youβre a designer, not an influencerβ¦ right?
