Faribault Fall Sports Tip

While summer is winding down, many youth are starting fall sports practices.  Here's some Faribault Fall Sports Tips from Ace Sports in Faribault.

According to dailyparent.com,

Proper Gear is Essential

It does not matter what age your child is, wearing the proper gear is essential to participating in sports. If baseball and football are two fall sports options, it is vital to wear helmets, and proper body padding in the case of football. Even when kids are playing among themselves in friendly games, it is better to be wearing protective gear.

The school might be providing gear for children, but it is a good idea to buy it yourself. Not only will this make wearing the gear more appealing to your kid, but it is more likely to be equipment of the right size.

Training is important

Social Media Management Faribault

When Holly Sobrack of Westbrack Marketing started her company, she did it so that locally owned businesses would have a trusted resource.  "I'd been freelancing and offering advice to people for years as I worked full-time in marketing.  It was shortly after my mom passed away that something inside me said to make it official, so I registered with the state of Minnesota.  My maiden name is Westercamp and my married is Sobrack so I merged the two and Westbrack Marketing was born."

Westbrack Marketing started out by offering a few businesses social media management and small business coaching.  Then, a friend who owned a business needed a new website and Holly created that for her as well.  She also gave free seminars at the Faribault Chamber of Commerce, the Faribault Senior Center and other places.  Her passion to help businesses grow came from her first job after college.  She worked for a newspaper in Iowa and was assigned a small greenhouse.  The owner had a passion and was excellent at growing things.  However, she did not have a sales strategy and lacked the creativity to draw customers like she wanted.  Sitting at her kitchen table, she and Holly mapped out a plan and then Holly went to work.  She quickly grew from one greenhouse to three within a year.  "I was thrilled to see her growth and her happiness - helping her reach her goals was so rewarding.  I loved what I did and never looked back."

Westbrack Marketing is based in Medford, MN and offers full advertising agency services.  From social media management to website design to small business coaching to graphic design, Holly is able to put all her skills to work for you.   She now has worked with customers in Faribault, Owatonna, Cannon Falls, Albert Lea, Austin, Rushford, New Ulm, Sleepy Eye, Rochester, Iowa City and more.  She has even done a website for a Vegas customer.
