I attended a free online class hosted by Cape Fear Community College’s Small Business Center. Derek Schmidt, CEO of Design Loud, shared about Social Media Marketing Success for Your Small Biz.Derek is approachable, informative, and does a great job breaking down a real marketing campaign using an attendee’s business as an example. He shares the tools and AI prompts he uses, which makes the class extra valuable. An hour flew by and still didn’t feel like enough time. I’d definitely recommend this class to any small business owner wanting to level up their marketing.
Derek with DesignLoud Marketing Agency is extremely knowledgeable and easy to learn from. He broke everything down in a way that actually made sense, even the parts of social media marketing that usually feel overwhelming. I learned a lot and walked away with a much better understanding of how to use social media more effectively for business. I’m definitely looking forward to taking another course he offers. Highly recommend!
Derek was super practical and easy to follow. AI seminar was only an hour and was packed with clear, step‑by‑step guidance. I walked away knowing exactly how to build social media campaigns, create ad variations, and set up landing pages using AI tools. Fast, practical, and immediately useful — definitely worth the time!
Derek today provided us with a training through the Small Business Centers about AI, marketing, business strategies. It was wonderful, thank you for sharing all those nuggets of info with us
Thanks for sharing your experience and insight regarding SEO and web development/design!

I took the NC Small Business online class from Derek Schmidt with DesignLoud and learned so much about using ChatGPT to create convertible content for my small business website. I was given many helpful tools to help me increase online traffic and create awareness to my business. The strategies provided were straightforward and well-organized. I recommend you reach out to Derek and his team at DesignLoud for any of your marketing needs.
Derek is so easy to work with!! He's extremely knowledgeable and doesn't mind taking time out to help you understand things. He really opened my mind to marketing my business and how to make it better!
