Our Story
In spring of 2020, both Megan & Jacque found themselves helping out family and friends to cope with sudden shift to contactless everything. After creating a number of new office procedures and building websites, they realized that they stumbled upon their calling. That fall, MJ Squad ran into trouble when many events they wanted to attend cancelled, so they decided to do something about it.
March 2021, MJ Squad expanded to MJ Events. The community event marked the heart of the public's desire to return to normal. With over 100 businesses and 2,000 people, the first event was a success! Since then, MJ Events has run over a dozen events.
MJ Small Business Squad's goal is to help small businesses at affordable prices. Our services include marketing events for small businesses to sell and attend, social media posting, website creation, inventory management training, branding, and so much more.
