    About Molly Knuth:

    Molly Knuth is a small-town Iowa girl who thought she wanted to be a high school teacher. After 3 years instructing on all things Shakespeare and American authors and many years of subbing, life called Molly out of the classroom and into the role of stay-at-home mom.

    …AND THAT’S WHEN THINGS GOT INTERESTING.

    You see, being a stay-at-home mom was great, but Molly knew that she needed a little more. And she knew there were lots of small-town business owners in her hometown of Cascade, Iowa, who could use some assistance in their daily operations.

    So after helping one business owner set up his company on the new Facebook Business Pages and running some successful campaigns, another local owner reached out asking for social media help, then another and another, and in 2017 Molly Knuth Media was born.

    Since then, Molly Knuth Media has evolved from a solo freelance social media marketing operation to a one-stop shop marketing agency for small-town businesses. In 2024, Molly stepped away from the agency model and into the realm of being a Fractional CMO and Consultant for women-owned businesses looking to bring alignment and intention to their marketing. Molly also hosts The Found Podcast with Molly Knuth, helping women found businesses and find themselves along the way through holistic strategies and storytelling.

    Molly believes women can do big things from anywhere with a business that supports their goals and aligns with their ideal customers and clients. And she’s here to support you along the way.
