The Gumbo Company Name

As well as being a keen advocate for easy-to-obtain digital marketing education for small businesses, Neil is also a musician in the after-hours. In addition to country and western, funk, jazz, and heavy metal (yes, the 80s kind), his biggest passion is the blues, as well as rhythm and blues from New Orleans, Chicago, Texas and more.

Gumbo is a Creole stew that is the official state cuisine of Louisiana. And in the funk and blues-rich city of New Orleans it is eaten daily by regular folks, musicians, artists and anyone who loves a hearty home-style feed. The "holy trinity of vegetables"—celery, onions and bell peppers—is always present in gumbo, but there are variations made to the recipe that make it just right for people with different tastes (Cajun gumbo, for example, may contain fowl instead of seafood).

Neil sees this mix of essential fundamentals and variables to be the perfect metaphor for knowing what types of digital marketing activities combine to create be best strategy for each client. So, there you go!
