Gannett Digital
The Origin Story, Unfiltered
2012 - 2015
Before Your Digital Angel had wings, I launched my consulting biz Angel Soria Internet Marketing, taught digital workshops, and gave social media sermons to anyone who’d listen. That scrappy hustle caught the attention of Gannett’s Times-Delta Media Group, where I was recruited to train a 10-person print sales team how to sell digital. Resistance? Heavy. Especially when people still used phone books and yellow pages. But I helped smash our annual digital revenue goals in under 90 days.
As the momentum grew, so did the mission. I launched the Your Digital Angel blog on VisaliaTimesDelta.com, combining tech insights, community love, and a wink at my name that stuck. Your Digital Angel became more than a brand. It became my calling card.
I was promoted to Digital Account Manager with Gannett Digital in downtown Phoenix, managing 90+ high-rev campaigns and guest blogging industry case studies featuring my client’s success. But one day, the Phoenix Suns came calling, and Your Digital Angel took flight.
