Founder/President Heidi Glatfelter Schlag is a marketing and communications professional with over twenty years of experience. I founded Market Early America in 2008 as a way to combine my marketing know-how with my love of American history and preservation. I have worked with a variety of organizations to implement strategic marketing policies without breaking their budgets. You can learn more about my background here or on my LinkedIn page.

​

I love working with history museums, small local businesses, tourism organizations, and associations, helping them to refine their marketing and communications strategies in order to achieve their long-term goals in growth and sustainability. I can work with you, too, to develop and implement an integrated plan that will sustain your organization into the future.

​

What Makes Market Early America Different

Unlike many agencies operating today, my main goal is not profit-based; instead, it is to do my part to help sustain our history, small towns, agricultural assets, and park spaces for future generations to explore. In addition, I have years of experience completing projects on small budgets and am familiar with a variety of low-cost or no-cost solutions I can implement for your organization. As such, I am able to charge reasonable prices for my services that museums and small businesses can afford. I also strive to implement systems (such as content management systems and templates) that allow staff members to continue using my solutions long after my involvement with the project has ended.
