About

FussBudget Promotions was founded in 2009 by entrepreneur and social media expert Sarah Barbee.  Born into a politically-active family in Raleigh, NC, Sarah was privy to the ins and outs of networking at a young age and learned the importance of interaction and communication in accomplishing personal and professional goals first-hand.  From this valuable foundation she went on to work in retail and sales most of her young adult life, providing her the skills in uniquely understanding the personal needs of customers while meeting the financial goals necessary to sustain business growth.

In 2007, Sarah created a non-profit program that organized events at local bars and restaurants to raise money for other non-profits throughout the Cape Fear region.  Although she resigned her position to focus her time and energy on her current business, this organization is still in existence today, carrying on the mission and vision that Sarah helped create.

Sarah’s experience with the creation of this program gave her first-hand knowledge of what is required to successfully launch, expand, and promote business in Southeastern North Carolina, in both the non-profit and for-profit sectors, and showed her the nearly infinite possibilities of social media in business.  This insight would provide the groundwork in her interest in creative entrepreneurship and would become the basis for what would come next; the creation of FussBudget Promotions.
