Can people see the person behind your business? Julia Capallo joins Conversations with Rich Bennett to explore how authentic storytelling, thoughtful graphic design, and community connections help small businesses communicate who they are.
Julia is the founder of A Marvelous Spark, a Bel Air, Maryland creative services business, and a local Macaroni KID publisher. After a decade teaching art, she took an unexpected path into entrepreneurship, combining her design background, writing skills, and love of education.
In this candid conversation, Rich and Julia discuss:
- Why brand storytelling needs both clear messaging and purposeful visuals.
- How outdated websites can create obstacles for potential customers.
- Julia’s concerns about AI-generated graphics and preserving human creativity.
- Making room for meditation, family, and creative inspiration.
- Connecting Harford County families and businesses through local resources and events.
Julia also shares how motherhood shaped her career decisions and why helping business owners learn can be just as valuable as doing the work for them.
