Kyle Hunt

Twelve years ago, you couldn’t spot me without a drink in my hand.

Six nights a week.
Out with friends.
Partying like the world was ending.
Because that was just “being social,” right?

2 weeks ago, I went out with a big group of guys.
Heavy hitters in my industry.
Drinks everywhere.
Shots going around like candy.

And me?
I had zero urge to join in.

So, what changed?

Simple.
I met my wife.

She never touched alcohol.
(No objection to it, just never wanted it).

Our early dates?
I felt like the odd one out, always ordering a drink while she just smiled and sipped water.
To be honest, it made me pay attention to my habits for the first time.

Over time, things shifted.
One less drink here, one less there.
The wild nights faded.
Now, it’s maybe a drink or two, and only for a real celebration.

Turns out, the right person doesn’t just accept you - they actually make you better, whether you realize it or not.

Wild how someone else’s example can rewrite your own story.

Ever had someone change your life without trying?
Share yours or tag them.

Love what you do and you'll never work a day in your life. 

Diving into the marketing world full time was a major turning point for me that helped me discover some of my passions. I have always loved working with small and medium-sized business, so starting 253 Media was a perfect fit. 

Over the last eight years, I have worked with all kinds of companies including real estate firms, property management companies, chiropractic practices, numerous e-commerce companies, and many car dealerships all over the United States.

Over the years, I’ve worked with nearly every aspect of digital marketing and advertising including content development, graphic design, complete back end social media campaigns, and web development in multiple platforms. 

To give you an overview of our process, 253 Media is a full-service creative agency that creates a seamless advertising experience across all major digital platforms including Facebook, Instagram, Google, Youtube, and at the core, our client's website. My team and I focus on our client's entire sale cycle from early awareness to new customer conversion, all the way to customer retention.

You will see a few documents below that will give you more information about us and that will help you get your advertising systems in place!

𝗪𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗮 𝗛𝗨𝗚𝗘 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗺 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗲𝗰𝗵 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗲 😱

Last month, we onboarded a well funded tech company to help them optimize their site and drive more demos for their sales team.

During our deep dive, we unveiled a major error.

This company was flying blind! They didn’t have any analytics beyond the most basic Google analytics set up.

❌ No conversion data
❌ No heatmap data
❌ No button click data

How can you improve a site without any data?

Hint hint!

You can’t! 

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗴𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗱, 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗱.

When it comes to accurate data measuring, we’ve been using Humblytics for all of our Webflow sites.

It gives us TONS of data for the site and it offers native A/B testing as well.

If you’re serious about improving your site, get your analytics dialed in so you can make accurate decisions for optimization.
