Welcome! I’m Mattanah. Founder of Inquire Marketing.
I know what’s at stake when small business owners invest in marketing that doesn’t work. Wasted money. Missed opportunities. The constant frustration of feeling like no one really gets their business.
I grew up in a family of entrepreneurs, so I’ve seen the struggle firsthand—navigating the noise of marketing advice and the never-ending tasks of running a business.
It can be overwhelming…even a little maddening.
That’s why I’ve made it my mission to create marketing strategies that actually work. Strategies that help businesses connect with the right people, grow sustainably, and stop throwing money at cookie-cutter solutions that just don’t deliver.
Before launching Inquire, I worked as Vice President of Marketing and Communications for an international nonprofit. I tackled some big challenges alongside some incredible people—managing crisis communications during the Israel-Hamas War and navigating the disruption of the global pandemic to the tourism industry.
Amid all this, my team and I scaled brand impact and launched successful marketing initiatives that generated growth for the organization and meaningful social impact when it mattered most. I’m deeply grateful for what I learned and contributed during these pivotal years. From leading teams to pioneering research methods that produced actionable business intelligence—I’ve built a reputation for turning big ideas into measurable outcomes.
Today, I bring that expertise to small business owners, helping them cut through the noise and make every marketing dollar count.
A few fun facts about me…
When I’m not immersed in the world of marketing, you’ll probably find me with my refurbished Pentax Espio 738G film camera in hand, documenting life when the light gets interesting.
I have an ever-growing collection of fine art photography books (which has turned into quite the expensive habit).
I love going on long drives across the country in my truck—especially when it involves seeing my family in the small West Tennessee town where I grew up.
My record player is always spinning (see: Valerie Carter and James Taylor).
Every week, I explore a new coffee shop in the DFW area. This usually includes a London Fog or Chai latte, plus a good book (see: John Steinbeck and Wendell Berry—two writers who know a thing or two about the art of storytelling and the beauty of slowing down).
