What our clients say about us

Deer Lake Regional Airport

Sprout Marketing is innovative, creative and professional. We have received some very positive feedback on the creative used and how great our social platforms look. They assisted us in our rebranding project for the Deer Lake Regional Airport where web design, branding and content development were the main aspects of the project. Their knowledge and attention to detail have aided in launching our airport’s new brand and positioning it for future success. They are easy to work with and always willing to take on the next project

About

We’re a team of strategic and creative marketing minds.

We work closely with you to strategize and design your marketing plan. Once the seeds are planted, we nurture them, adjusting as conditions change. After the harvest, we report back to you, using insights and analytics to germinate new ideas and plans. Most importantly, we get results and we connect businesses with their customers every day.

Together, we have nearly 30 years of marketing, communications, and sales experience. Here’s a snapshot of our roots.

Alli Johnston
Creative Director

Alli has worked in marketing & communications for over 20 years. Her approach to marketing is based on the idea that good work is built on solid ground. A creative at heart, she also loves making spreadsheets and she brings a unique combination of creative and project management skills to her position at Sprout Marketing.

Alli is also a visual artist and splits her time between her homes in Corner Brook, on Exploits Island and Fogo Island.

Samantha Martin
Client Relations Manager

Sam moved to Newfoundland on a bit of a quest for adventure, and working as Sprout’s photographer has not disappointed. She had worked alongside talented photographers and writers in her role as Managing Editor of Our Homes Magazine, a home design and building publication with head offices near her family farm along stunning Georgian Bay, Ontario.

After watching and learning from photography veterans for years, Sam decided to expand her knowledge and add photography to her own professional offerings. She started her east coast adventure in St. John’s working with Downhome and Home & Cabin magazines, honing her skills as a photographer, editor and writer while traveling across the island. Feeling a strong draw to the west coast of the province, Sam made the move to western NL. That’s where we found her offering her professional skills beyond the magazine industry, capturing people in their natural environments and helping businesses market themselves to the world through thoughtful photography and written content.

At Sprout, Sam is a familiar face, meeting with clients and showing up in the most unexpected locations to capture the shots and clips we need to help our clients tell their story. Although she’s known to be easily distracted by a puppy or the way light falls on a patch of moss, we like her just fine anyway.

Mandy Keeping

Social Media Coordinator

Mandy holds a Visual Arts degree from Grenfell Campus. After spending several years in Toronto working in the photography industry, she moved back home to the west coast of NL to be close to family, the land, and the water.

Mandy's love of sharing creative content truly blossomed over the last decade while working at The Greenhouse. Known for making informative and fun posts helping with all things gardening, her photo and video skills combined with her enthusiastic writing attracted many excited customers to the business, eager to get in on the growing action.

Most days you can find her drinking coffee, dancing, jumping, and digging in the dirt with her fam.
