Rooted in Columbia. Focused on what works.
I’m Meredith Atkinson—a marketing professional, small business owner, and lifelong Columbia local. After nearly two decades in the industry, I’ve learned that good marketing is about more than great visuals and clever words—it’s about knowing your audience, listening well, and delivering with consistency and care.
I’ve worked across the marketing spectrum—from leading statewide campaigns and major public events to managing social media for small shops and nonprofits. I spent years building brand experiences at agencies, in government, and in the private sector, before launching mga marketing sc to bring my skills directly to the community I love.
At my core, I’m a connector and a problem-solver. I love helping people clarify their voice, streamline their strategy, and find creative ways to stand out. If you’re looking for someone who understands how to manage big projects without losing sight of the small details, you’re in the right place.

Outside the Office
When I’m not building campaigns or mapping out content calendars, you might find me teaching a workout class, coordinating a local event, or chasing my toddler through the yard. Columbia is where I live, work, and play—and I’m proud to support the businesses that make it great.
