Our Journey and Mission
Nicole Ford's path to building Nicole Ford & Co. began with a spirit of service and an eye for authentic communication. In 2013, Nicole volunteered her marketing expertise with the Oklahoma Department of Transportation. Her ability to translate complex messages into clear, trusted information quickly attracted positive attention and referrals. What started as a volunteer role soon evolved into a vocation fueled by a passion for helping others succeed.
Nicole's foundation in public relations, coupled with her extensive work across government, nonprofit, and academic sectors, shaped a practical, audience-first approach that has proven essential for small businesses nationwide. With over 20 years of experience in communications—spanning media relations, creative storytelling, and government partnerships—and active work with clients in all 50 states, she understands the power of strategic messaging tailored for real-world results.
Nicole's values center on diversity, inclusion, and personal guidance. Her role as both a veteran and a leader from underrepresented backgrounds gives her a unique perspective on serving entrepreneurs across communities. Today, Nicole Ford & Co. proudly supports small business owners in all 50 states, helping them build lasting relationships with their customers and empowering them with strategies that withstand any communication challenge.
