Eric Thiegs gave up health benefits, a retirement package and a stable six-figure income as the director of partnership marketing with a large agency to start his own company with no definable revenue, just two months before his second daughter was born. It was a leap of faith that made sense only because Thiegs himself was such a strong marketer — he knew he could make it work. And he has.
Thiegs launched StageofLife.com in 2009 as an international blogging community with a mission to make the world a better place through multigenerational storytelling. The website saw a 253 percent increase in site traffic between 2010 and 2011, as well as a 197 percent increase in page views during that time.
Through a variety of PR, SEO, outreach, partnerships and viral marketing techniques, StageofLife.com continues to grow, as does its dual role as a partnership marketing agency that supports loyalty and rewards programs for member organizations.
