Sarah, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
Hello! I’m Sarah Strackhouse, the founder of Strackhouse Media. My background is in journalism and broadcast news, where I developed a passion for storytelling and visual communication. Driven by a desire to make authentic connections through media, I launched Strackhouse Media to help businesses, individuals, and organizations share their unique stories effectively.
We specialize in content creation, event production, and media training with personalized media strategies to highlight each client’s voice and vision. I’m proud of our commitment to quality and transparency.
We have a number of items that set us apart. First, we are a female owned and operated media company certified by the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC). We are an equal opportunity employer looking for qualified candidates to help take your project to the next level.
Second, we provide a one-stop-shop model no matter the need. If you want a video created? We can help you with story strategy, video production, and video sharing. Need to put on an event? We can provide the AV production, and supply you with the event planners, photographers, videographers and vendors to make your event spectacular!
The best part, our pricing and quoting breakdowns are easy to follow. We can weed out the noise and technical items you don’t need to focus on so you can make sure the pricing fits your budget!
I believe what sets us apart is our focus on capturing not just moments but meaningful narratives. Above all, we aim to empower our clients by creating content that resonates with their audiences and leaves a lasting impact.
What’s a lesson you had to unlearn and what’s the backstory?
One of my biggest lessons has been shifting my mindset from employee to CEO. As a journalist, I was part of the process but never in control of the direction. Once I began advocating for myself and my team, I saw how essential it was to move beyond the employee mindset. This shift has allowed us to lead with purpose and make decisions that align with our vision, ultimately enabling us to grow and succeed.
Can you talk to us about how your side-hustle turned into something more.
When I had my first son, I was working full-time at a PR firm and a digital TV network. Trying to balance new motherhood with an on-site studio/office job made me realize I wanted more flexibility in my schedule and to prioritize my family. I knew I wanted to continue working, but I wasn’t sure how to transform my skills into something sustainable for my family. I started taking on small videography and photography projects and, with guidance from mentors in the industry, I built my business to what it is today.
