I’m Marissa.

I started Haymaker Marketing with a simple goal: to have the freedom to travel and volunteer for more nonprofits. What I didn’t expect was that my journey would lead me to specialize in vacation home and hotel marketing and start an Airbnb Marketing Agency—but here we are!

With over seven years of experience in social media management, I began my career working with nonprofits, using storytelling to amplify their missions. What started as a side hustle in marketing quickly grew into a full-time business. Then, while traveling through Europe—staying in stunning Airbnbs across Cornwall, France, and Italy—I noticed a gap. These properties had beautiful listing photos, but their Instagram presence often felt uninspired. Blurry holiday graphics, a random washer and dryer shot—where was the magic of the space I was experiencing?

That’s when it clicked. Hosts and boutique hotels needed more than just great photos; they needed storytelling. They needed content from someone who understood what truly worked on social media.

That realization led me to build Haymaker Marketing—an Airbnb and Hotel Marketing agency dedicated to crafting compelling content that brings Airbnbs and hotels to life online.

P.S. I still do content creation and social media management for businesses, unique and curated products, and property managers!
