Marshall Malone
I’m Marshall Malone, a multi-platform content producer. What’s that? It’s a title I coined to help sum up my diverse past working in both digitally native environments (websites, social media, apps) and more traditional environments (broadcast television, video production, retail.)
I have over 15+ years’ experience in both retail marketing and digital marketing, with a strong specialization in SEO, followed by web design, enterprise e-Commerce, paid social media, and over 20+ years’ experience of digital content production: including video production, podcast production, photography, web design, and much more. I also have experience working in Agile enviornments, as well as familiarity with Waterfall and Scrum methodologies. I have worked with some of the largest companies in the world, as well as some in my own backyard and have experience working on many popular CMS platforms including WordPress, Joomla, and ArcXP.
In 2019, I changed my career path and started working in the TV news/broadcast industry as a Digital Producer. In 2020, I transitioned into a creative role as Senior Producer.

About Me
From right-brained skills like photography and video production to left-brained skills like SEO, content marketing, and analytics, I’ve had the luxury of learning many different skills over my years. I am autodidactic in my skills set, in that many of the skills I’ve learned have been self-taught or through professional opportunities. I’ve held a variety of jobs since I was 16 years old: from unloading trucks, selling shoes, and selling beer at NFL games, to executing highly profitable SEO campaigns and working in a world class photography studio. I’m very well rounded, to say the least. I am currently working as a creative services producer and editor for Graham Media, but always open to collaborating on personal creative endeavors with new people.

I’m not big on talking about myself in the public forum, but I have had a stroke of luck to win some small awards and also get noticed for some of my work by some people I’m inspired by. In August 2022, I decided to quit eating sugar and refined carbs after reading a book by author and licensed therapist, Molly Carmel, and she reached out to me to be a guest on her podcast.
