My Story

Hey, I’m Brenton. I run Icebreak Interactive, a one-person social media consultancy helping brands, founders and agencies turn good ideas into content people actually notice.

By day, I manage social media for a global data and SaaS company in the pharma space. Outside of that, I help clients build sharper content, stronger LinkedIn visibility and social strategies that earn attention for the right reasons.

I’ve spent 10+ years turning quiet brands into conversation starters.

I’ve ghostwritten for executives who needed to sound more like themselves, built content strategies tied to real business goals and helped turn “just OK” content into something people want to read, share and remember.

You do not get a bloated agency.

You get me — a strategist, writer and social media operator who lives in the trenches, moves fast and knows how to make content feel human without making it feel sloppy.

I’m based in West Des Moines, Iowa. I run on Monster Energy, momentum and a Google Doc that is always open.

You could be great at what you do.

But if the right people never see it, it will not create the opportunities it should.

Let’s change that.
