I’m a creative nerdy mad scientist living in Fort Collins, Colorado. A Web and Gen-Y strategist, I help small businesses, entrepreneurs and individuals tell their story online. I help to keep millennials (Gen-Y) and their managers from going to war. I grok social media, web design, and content creation through blogging, podcasting, and web videos. I’m also a Trekkie – Live long ‘n’ prosper, yo.
But seriously… Who is Nick Armstrong?
I am a Web and Gen-Y Strategist, which means I help small businesses, entrepreneurs and individuals tell their story online. I help workers of different generations work as efficient teams. I’m a web designer and social media nut; my specialty is creative ideas. I blog, I podcast, I videocast, I network online, I create communities, and I write compelling content.
I love to bring original ideas to life – most recently with my own company, WTF!? Marketing. You can see examples of my work on my Portfolio page. My Twitter account is ranked in the top 20 in Fort Collins, CO and each of my 2,400+ followers was procured organically. I’m also adept at Search Engine Optimization, having garnered first-page and first-place Google search results time and time again.
I won the FBLA award for Best Website Design in Colorado in both years I competed, first and second place respectively. I worked as an award-winning 90.5 FM KCSU DJ under the name of St. Nick. I created “Two Chicks and Nick” – winner of a first-place Colorado Society of Professional Journalism award and hailed as the Best New Talk Show of 2005.
My hobbies include Psychotic Resumes, a blog and podcast that serves as a survival guide for Millennial and Gen-X business professionals. I’m also co-founder of Giant Gnome Productions, an audio production group that creates podcast audio drama in the style of old radio shows like The Shadow. I write and produce the highly-acclaimed and 5-star rated Star Trek: Dimensions. Both Psychotic Resumes and Star Trek: Dimensions can be downloaded from iTunes.
I am a former volunteer as the Web Marketing Director and Internship Coordinator for GitNit Right.
My current goal is to grow my company, WTF!? Marketing, so that I can hire my first employee.
