About Brooke Thibodaux

I live to serve others and find immense joy in helping you shine in your areas of excellence and passion. I aim to empower small business owners like yourself to feel like you’re making a BIG impact (because YOU ARE).​Together, we’ll work closely to understand your unique vision and goals, crafting strategies and solutions that elevate your brand and drive success. Your success is my mission, and I’m dedicated to providing the support, insight, and relentless effort needed to help you do BIG things.My entrepreneurial spirit began at the age of 7, selling bookmarks to my classmates, and by 14, I had launched a babysitting business complete with a certification, resume, business cards, and flyers. With a background in advertising sales, marketing, and client relations, I made a significant pivot in 2020, leaving a desk job to start B Marketing out of my 700-square-foot apartment. Since then, I\'ve poured my heart into building a business that reflects my commitment to helping clients succeed. My business began as a leap of faith and continues to grow rooted in my faith and a commitment to helping clients succeed.Although I am a Cajun at heart, I have planted my roots in the charming town of Sumter, South Carolina. As an alumna of Francis Marion University, where I earned a B.B.A. in Marketing, I am proud to give back by serving on the Alumni Advisory Board and am honored to be the 2025 recipient of the Benjamin Wall Ingram Young Alumnus Award. I am married to the most intelligent and patient person I know, Joshua Summerford, and we share our home with our beloved furbabies: Rizzo, Hootie, Merlin, Mimi, and Outdoor Kitty. In my free time, I love reading, traveling, playing tennis, and contributing to my tennis community as a secretary and board member of the Sumter Tennis Association.Now enough about me, I\'d love to get to know more about you! Please feel free to message me and introduce yourself. All connections are encouraged!
