Executive Talks About Ohio As Perfect Location For Entrepreneurs

In 2001, Barbara Wayman, APR, founded BlueTree Media, LLC in Dublin, Ohio. Her company specializes in helping brands identify and deliver consistent messages with the goal of building awareness and increasing market share.

When asked why she chose to start and grow her business in Ohio, Barbara told me, “Ohio has a low cost of living which helps businesses and families grow and prosper here, also lending itself to a solid return on investment over time.” Ohio provides Barbara with the perfect work-life balance.

Before founding BlueTree Media, Barbara worked on a number of award-winning campaigns for products such as Cracker Jack, Creamettes Pasta and ReaLemon. A Columbus Business First 40 Under Forty recipient, Barbara holds a master’s in journalism and a bachelor’s in communications from The Ohio State University.

I recently had the opportunity to talk with Barbara about why she considers Ohio as a choice location for entrepreneurs and her thoughts on work-life balance.
