Who is Christian Hollingsworth?

“You’re such a smart boy!” were his first accolades heard. So, it’s no wonder this phrase became the title of his business, Smart Boy Designs.

Christian Andrew Hollingsworth is no stranger to entrepreneurial businesses; however, he has moved on from neighborhood lemonade and mistletoe stands to conquer the digital world.

He was 9 when he first started teaching himself how to code websites. At the age of 15, Christian became serious about one of his many passions – raising his fleet of sled dogs. In order to keep his dogs trained, healthy and well fed, he needed a surplus of money and supplies. He quickly taught himself how to reach people through digital marketing. Eventually he built the second largest dog sledding community in the world online, where he also managed a successful dog supplement store.

But sled dogs were only the beginning for this young entrepreneur.

Christian has phenomenal drive and determination; he completed his high school courses in two years, compared to the traditional four, as well as becoming the Camptonville Academy Valedictorian. During this youthful time, Christian was presented with several awards: Eagle Scout Inductee, Duty to God Award in the Latter-Day Saint church, On My Honor Award in Scouting, Spirit of Ishi Award of Outstanding Leadership, California Young Author’s Award, and the Kiwanis Award of Leadership.

When Christian returned home from his service mission to Colorado in February 2011, his attitude of serving others was never forgotten, and thus Smart Boy Designs was resurrected as he strived to deliver valuable services and marketing advice to the digital world.

Currently, Christian is a Digital Marketing Consultant for well-known brands around the globe. He works with various companies’ employees as he helps them to understand and use various forms of digital media to increase their visibility and product sales. Christian’s skills and expertise in social media, affiliate marketing, website flipping, search engine marketing & optimization, web development, traffic generation, and the large community of blogging has served him and others well.

Recently, Christian has been placed on the “Sponsored Tweets Web Celeb List,” is quoted in college textbooks and major media outlets, and named a 2011 Small Business Influencers Nominee & Honorable Mention. His company blog, Smart Boy Designs, is now listed among the 40,000 most visited websites in the world, with 142,000 Twitter followers and syndicated to 10+ million people. It’s become a hub of information in regards to small business ownership, making money online, branding, web development, design and personal development.

As if the digital world is not enough, Christian is a classically trained vocalist. He is presently working with music and television producers throughout the country in developing his music career further.

There is no stopping this ambitious young man.
