  • "Angie wrote an awesome press release for us and advised us on marketing and preparing for our first CHA show. The service was professional and high quality. Angie’s experience in the industry was extremely helpful as we created the press release and prepared for the CHA show. She advised us in many different aspects of our business in addition to the press release, and we were much more prepared for the show as a result. Her immense knowledge of the industry is invaluable to newcomers, and she treats every question like it is important. Angie performs her job with the utmost professionalism and integrity. She is a terrific writer and has wonderful ideas for marketing on any budget." -- Christie Welch, co-owner, Two Chicks Designs

One-Line Bio

Biography

Angie Pedersen started scrapbooking in 1997. Her first page proudly featured photos cut into several imaginative shapes, as well as several decorative edges. Her vastly improved work has since appeared in eight nationally recognized magazines. Pedersen is the author of The Book of Me: A Guide to Scrapbooking about Yourself, Growing Up Me: A Guide to Scrapbooking Your Child’s Stories, and The Book of US: A Guide to Scrapbooking about Relationships. Signed copies of these books are available at http://angiepedersen.typepad.com/book_of_me_shop/.

Pedersen has a passion for all things "new media", proven by her two award-winning websites (ScrapYourStories.com and OneScrappySite.com), three blogs, overflowing RSS reader, and active social network adventures.

In 2005, Pedersen created Scrappy Marketing Solutions, a niche marketing communications agency dedicated to helping small businesses get noticed. She offers customized marketing communications services based on her eight years' experience working in the scrapbooking industry. Her expertise has been featured in both consumer and trade magazines, such as Craftrends, Digital Scrapbooking, Memory Makers, and Scrapbook Answers. To learn more about Ms. Pedersen and her custom marketing communications services, email angie (at) onescrappysite.com, or visit http://www.scrapbookmarketing.com

Pedersen lives in Kansas City with her husband and two children. Once she gets rich and famous, she'll hire an assistant, a maid, and a masseuse, but until then, she does her own cooking, dishes, and endless sibling refereeing.

Pedersen is available for interviews, and as an expert resource on scrapbooking and blogging.
