ABOUT SOLID GROUND DIGITAL MARKETING AGENCY

Who We Are

Solid Ground Agency CEO Rachael VanWagner

Rachael VanWagner

Founder, CEO, and Vision-Driver

Rachael VanWagner isn’t just the CEO of Solid Ground—she’s the force behind its no-fluff, results-first approach to digital marketing. With a sharp eye for strategy and a deep respect for the real work happening inside autism centers, Rachael built Solid Ground to help mission-driven businesses grow without getting lost in marketing jargon or one-size-fits-all tactics.

Her background blends marketing know-how with boots-on-the-ground leadership, which means she’s just as comfortable mapping out a multi-channel campaign as she is helping a client cut through the noise and focus on what’s actually moving the needle. Rachael believes marketing should feel like momentum—not mystery.

At Solid Ground, she leads with clarity, curiosity, and a healthy dose of straight talk. Whether she’s guiding strategy, supporting her team, or dreaming up what’s next, Rachael keeps things real, rooted, and always client-centered.

When she’s not building big ideas or refining the next smart system, you’ll likely find her in full-on creative mode—coffee in hand, Spotify playlist running, and a new vision on the horizon.

Ron Flynn

Sr. Account Manager - Sales Strategist, and All-Around Systems Guy

With over 30 years of helping global tech giants (Oracle and HP) and fast-moving startups boost revenue and tighten up strategy. Ron Flynn knows how to turn big ideas into real results. He’s led sales enablement, built teams, fine-tuned processes, and coached just about every kind of sales pro out there—and now, he’s bringing that powerhouse skill set to the world of digital marketing. 

As Solid Ground’s Senior Account Manager, Ron partners closely with our clients to keep strategies sharp, timelines on track. Think of him as your marketing translator, project quarterback, and accountability buddy—all rolled into one.

Ron’s superpower? Taking complex, messy challenges and turning them into clear, scalable systems that actually work. He’s led high-stakes projects from kickoff to execution, rallied cross-functional teams, and delivered outcomes that make spreadsheets happy and teams even happier.

At Solid Ground, Ron brings structure without the stress and strategy without the jargon. Whether he’s mapping out a go-to-market plan or coaching your team toward peak performance, he’s the steady hand (and sharp mind) that keeps everything moving forward—with clarity, confidence, and a few dad jokes along the way.

Why We Do It

Solid Ground started with a simple idea: marketing shouldn’t be confusing, overwhelming, or full of fluff. It should be honest, strategic, and built to support the kind of organizations that are doing real good in the world—like autism centers, behavioral health providers, and purpose-driven businesses that care more about impact than industry buzzwords.

After years of seeing agencies overcomplicate things (and underdeliver), our founder, Rachael VanWagner, knew there had to be a better way. So she built it. Solid Ground was born to give hardworking teams the marketing clarity they need—and the results they deserve. No ego, no cookie-cutter campaigns—just thoughtful strategy, clear communication, and a team that feels like an extension of yours.

We’re big believers in showing up with curiosity, asking the right questions, and building systems that support sustainable growth. Whether you’re expanding your services, filling a wait list, or trying to reach more families in your community, we’re here to help you do it with confidence.

At the end of the day, our job is to make your job easier—and make sure your message gets to the people who need it most.
