Season 6 Episode 5: Hard Launch of Makin’ it Media

Lots of life has been happening around here, and we have plenty to talk about. Mackin has been busy fasting, while Danielle has been busy trying out new Mexican restaurants with a side of tirzepatide.

We celebrated the resurrection of Jesus by allowing our kids to be spoiled with candy and gifts. The cost of dyeing eggs this year was outrageous, so it was cheaper to just let them eat the dye in Sour Patch Kids.

We are excited to finally hard-launch Makin' it Media! Mackin has been running Makin' it Media behind the scenes for the last couple of years, and we’re excited to now start growing the agency. We primarily focus on media buying, creative strategy, and AI automation, but can service or provide partners in any facet of marketing.

Mackin has spent the last 15 years leading marketing strategies for Fortune 500 brands, leading creative strategy for billion-dollar companies, and buying media like it was his own money. He’s worked with some of the world’s biggest brands and your local Mom and Pops. And now, Makin' it Media is here to focus on making things simple, fast, and effective—just the way marketing should be. Follow @wearemakinit on Instagram for support and LinkedIn for more updates.

Enough business! Maria stayed with us for a few days, even though it felt like a few weeks with all she “taught” us.

We’ve realized that the gentle parenting we did with our kids at a young age has come back to bite us as our older kids enter tweenhood.

Lastly, is an animal cracker a cookie or a cracker? We’ll leave it up to you to decide while Mackin ranks the kids. We love you all, we appreciate your support, and thank you for listening!
