About

Ruby Benoit,
CDME & MBA

Thank you for coming here and taking a moment to get to know me better. I hope to learn more about you too!

 

In 2015, when my VP of Marketing position was eliminated, I found myself at a crossroads. With over 20 years of experience in marketing, project management, and event planning in corporate America, I decided to take a leap and start my own business. It was daunting to handle everything alone, feeling the same pressure and overwhelm that you are probably also experiencing.

I know firsthand the challenges of managing marketing efforts with limited resources and the constant demand to keep the business running smoothly. This experience ignited my passion to help others navigate similar struggles.

Over the past three decades, I've worked across various industries, including food & beverage, tourism & hospitality, sports, entertainment, fashion, and consumer packaged goods. I’ve developed and led campaigns in advertising, digital marketing, promotions, public relations, social media, special events, and video marketing. My strength lies in transforming complex ideas into actionable strategies that boost growth and engagement.

​

My goal is to help businesses optimize their marketing strategies, integrate efficient technology solutions, and streamline processes. I want to help you enhance productivity, improve systems, and help your business succeed. By addressing your pain points like inefficiencies, lack of marketing expertise, and operational pressures, I aim to make a significant impact on your bottom line and company culture.

On a more personal note, I love to explore new cuisines and destinations. Travel is a passion for me, and I have set foot on 6 continents, 35 countries, and 37 states. At home, I love to hang out with my hubby, Russ, and our dog, Little Lady. I enjoy volunteering at local animal rescue organizations, children’s charities, and beach cleanup efforts.

​

Let's embark on this journey together, turning challenges into opportunities for growth and success.

“I've had the pleasure of working with Ruby as a trusted resource since she founded Craft Good Business and during her prior tenure at Visit Newport Beach. As a consultant, she offers more than an impressive wheelhouse; she seamlessly assumes a role as a team member and brand ambassador regardless of the assignment. And, it doesn't get better than that. While working together on programs promoting Newport Beach and the shopping center I represented, I always appreciated Ruby going the extra step to ensure my brand's agenda was achieved while meeting the charge of her own job. That duality is rare but common when partnering with Ruby--something I highly recommend.”
