CONTENT PRODUCTION
For the love of Pete, as Nana used to say, don’t underestimate the time it takes to plan and create good content. We specialize in serving as the content team you wish you’d always had, working with your marketing team or bringing one ready-made to you, to offer specialized skill as you need it, or serving as end-to-end planners, producers, publishers, and analysts.
THE STORIES WE TELL
As a content marketing agency, we tell stories for brands, using digital marketing and content marketing tactics to reach the right audiences, and amplify results. Our passion is telling real stories. Human stories. Stories that delight. And inspire. And that prompt action that matters.
Here, we’ll share stories about our own lessons. We’ll let you know what works, and what doesn’t. We’ll share failures along with successes.
We work with brands who are brave, who want to inspire change–because we too want to inspire change: to do better for women and kids in our communities. We invite you to join us on our journey.

We couldn’t have built the Patch V3 brand without the Forge & Spark Media team. Each team member brings a unique focus and edge.
– George Haddad, Patch V3
As a small business owner considering marketing, my first question was: what is it going to cost? To my surprise, Shannon was willing to develop a plan within my budget—most importantly, with a positive energy that kept me going. This is a great team of great people with great skills, who made it so much easier to start a new business.”
– Masoud Mehrara, Wise Tea
Through careful and creative planning, Forge & Spark’s posts built our social media presence from the ground up. One of the things I appreciated most was the team’s ability to acknowledge when something wasn’t working and their above-and-beyond effort and contributions to the project because they were so passionate about it.
– Adam Greydon Reid,
Bullrush Productions / Hospital Show
I appreciated the confidence Shannon had in taking my words and capturing the essence of the project. I also had a tight deadline which was accommodated with realistic expectations. Shannon is empathetic and involved. There’s a real connection.
