Meet The Founder
Misty Sharkey
Founder & Small Business Marketing Partner | 17+ Years Experience
Hey there! I’m Misty Sharkey, founder of Ama Marketing Solutions. I started this business because I know firsthand how overwhelming marketing feels when you’re juggling everything else—and I’m passionate about making it easier for business owners like you.
After 17+ years of working with small businesses, I’ve watched countless entrepreneurs struggle to keep up with marketing while running their companies. They know they need it, but they don’t have time to figure out what works—or budget to waste on what doesn’t. That’s exactly why I created Ama Marketing Solutions: to deliver practical, proven strategies that fit your reality.
As a Cherokee woman, creative entrepreneur, wife, and mom, I understand the juggling act of wearing multiple hats. My approach is personal and practical—no cookie-cutter strategies that waste your time. Whether you need a complete marketing strategy, consistent social media presence, or a website that actually converts, I focus on what will move the needle for your business. My mission is simple: help you market smarter, not harder.

Origin Story
Why I Started Ama Marketing Solutions
After years of watching small business owners stress over marketing—trying to figure out Facebook algorithms at midnight or wondering why their website wasn’t bringing in customers—I knew there had to be a better way.
Too many consultants were selling expensive packages that small businesses couldn’t execute. Too many agencies treated local businesses like they had enterprise budgets. I wanted to create something different: marketing support that actually fits into the life of a busy business owner, with strategies that work in the real world, not just on a whiteboard.
That’s what Ama Marketing Solutions is all about—bringing big-business marketing expertise to small businesses, without the big-business price tag or complexity.
Is This For You?
I work best with small business owners who:
Are tired of guessing what marketing will work
Want to grow but don't have time to become marketing experts
Value honest, practical advice over trendy tactics
Are ready to invest in marketing that actually pays off
When I'm Not Marketing
I’m probably painting, singing karaoke like nobody’s watching (they are, and I don’t care), or baking something delicious. My happy place is anywhere near water with my husband, kids, and our dog. You’ll also find me curled up with a good book or deep in conversation about life’s mysteries—I’m a thinker and a dreamer at heart.
I built this business around the life I want to live, not the other way around. That’s the same approach I bring to your marketing: strategies that fit your real life, not some hustle-culture fantasy. Because sustainable growth beats burnout every single time.
