About Christian Braun

I consult a wide variety of small businesses connecting them to digital media solutions, focused on generating qualified leads. Through my experiences I have obtained a thorough understanding of which digital media strategies work best in each industry. My creative talents and entrepreneurial mindset have allowed me great success. In college I founded a social media company called DreamWalker Inc.(see more below). Therefore I have first hand experience running a small business. I understand that in today\'s economy small businesses MUST have an immediate ROI for any marketing budget spent. I currently work for a new company called Vivial The effective digital media solutions I connect businesses to include: Search Engine Marketing, Search Engine Optimization, Web Design, Mobile Websites, Online Listings, Online Reputation Management, and Social Media Marketing.In July of 2011 I founded DreamWalker Inc.(at only 19 years old), a social media optimization company driven to connect businesses to affordable social media solutions. Our innovative methods of social media optimization provide creative solutions for our clients. In our first year our revenue was and it grew exponentially from there. The amazing part was this was all executed by myself and a few other college students with nothing but laptops and a small workspace provided by the EKU CEDET program. Throughout the years with DreamWalker I worked with hundreds of unique businesses across the country. I acquired advanced skill sets in social media and other online marketing strategies. I sold my business in 2013 and moved into other opportunites including a few profitable websites and freelancing.
