Ever wondered what it takes to make your business shine online? Claudia Stockli, founder of Golden Hour Media, has the answers you're looking for. As your "social media's ride or die" and "internet's bestie," Claudia brings a refreshing perspective to digital marketing that transforms how small businesses connect with their communities.

Growing up in New York City with entrepreneurial parents, Claudia inherited both business savvy and a deep appreciation for small business impact. Her journey through Virginia Living Magazine and Yelp equipped her with marketing expertise, but it was a pandemic layoff that unexpectedly launched her entrepreneurial path. When her chiropractor mentioned needing social media help, Claudia took a leap of faith—without even owning a laptop—and Golden Hour Media was born.

What sets Golden Hour apart isn't just social media management; it's comprehensive digital storytelling. Claudia debunks the myth that social media success comes from simply posting pretty pictures. Instead, she emphasizes strategy, authentic connection, and finding someone who genuinely believes in your vision. "Social media isn't scary," she reassures, advocating for an approach where you "show up for yourself" and enjoy the process of building something people want to be part of.

When she's not transforming clients' digital presence, Claudia embodies her "work hard, play hard" philosophy through travel, photography, and family time. These adventures double as inspiration, as she collects ideas from advertisements and menus encountered on her journeys. Her advice to aspiring entrepreneurs? "Just go for it"—embracing the inevitable trial and error that comes with growth.
