Matthew Shaughnessy
More than a decade of marketing experience across Virginia and the eastern United States — including roles in university athletics and at a regional advertising agency — before building Colo Media to help local businesses grow. Matthew's strength is strategy: reading an audience and a market, then building the channel mix that actually works for it. He's also the ROI guy — he knows how to test channels, measure them honestly, and understand exactly what each one is worth to the bottom line.
