Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Olivia Dalton. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Olivia, thank you so much for taking the time to share your lessons learned with us and we’re sure your wisdom will help many. So, one question that comes up often and that we’re hoping you can shed some light on is keeping creativity alive over long stretches – how do you keep your creativity alive?
I keep my creativity alive by regularly revisiting past photo shoots, client interactions, and old images I’ve taken for inspiration. By drawing from these experiences, I’m able to generate new ideas, innovative marketing strategies, and incorporate timeless methods with emerging trends. This process helps you stay connected to your creative roots while adapting to evolving market dynamics.
Another crucial element in my creative process is immersing myself in new environments and cultures through travel, allowing for fresh perspectives and experiences to inspire me. Additionally, I embrace flexibility in my schedule, avoiding rigid routines to encourage spontaneity and creativity. This approach enables me avoid burnout and stay excited about the trajectory of Madison Media Agency.
Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?
Conversations & Collaborations is how Madison Media Agency was founded. Through my Lattes with Olivia brand & blog I grew so many amazing connections throughout not only Cincinnati, but the entire US. My first social media management client in 2019 was a Cincinnati founded, California operated wine company. Since we have managed the accounts for so many different businesses including but not limited to Wedding Venues, Financial Advising Teams, Retreat Centers, Floral Shops, MedSpas, Cosmetic Dentistry, Coffee Shops, Family Owned Bakery, Realtors, Esthetician School, Construction Companies and more.
Navigating the trials and errors of running a social media page and blog for my own brands, gave me a huge advantage when taking on the role of a social media consultant, photographer, and brand manager. Curating perfect images that complement the company’s image and appearance, has been our goal since 2019. Styling photo shoots, creating influencer programs, creating content etc.
If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
3 Qualities & Skills that played a major contributing factor in Me becoming who I wanted to be-
Confidence.
Faith.
Discipline.
I think diving into such a vast, ever-changing, & diverse industry like social media management, you’re subject to scrutiny and hearing other people’s unwanted opinions. One quality I’m certain that has played a contributing factor in my success of running Madison Media Agency is I’ve never been the one to care about what other people think of me; excluding my close friends & family of course.
I was homeschooled my entire life and I was raised in a very loving family that uplifted & cheered me on through any hobby and interest I took part in. The fear of failing was never placed in my mind even from a young age. The ups & downs of being an entrepreneur has always been a fun thrill for me rather than questioning if I should throw in the towel every time things got hard or clients became difficult to manage. Failing FORWARD is always how I’ve looked at things, even during the hard times just know, you’re still making progress.
