Chris Heuwetter
CEO & Founder
What do you get when you mix a Madison Avenue PR executive with a computer science-loving techie? One hell of a social media growth hacker.
Chris spent the first half of his career working his way up the corporate PR agency ladder, working at both world-class firms and tech-specific boutiques in New York City. As an early adopter, with a strong background in programming and Web development from high school and college, he had his eye on social media from the very beginning.
Chris was the first of his friends on the pioneer social network “friendster,” and one of the first to customize their MySpace profile with elaborate HTML. Already established as a successful account executive before Facebook took hold, he spent a great deal of time convincing senior management that social media was the future of PR, and he was right.
During 2008-2010 Chris was the social media director for a large NYC PR firm, flying around the world introducing social media communications services for the very first time as offered by a PR firm. Major brands were intrigued, signing up left and right, and he knew this was his calling. Chris had the chance to work with prolific brands such as American Express, Ford, Aruba Tourism Authority, Six Flags, Kimpton Hotels, 4Kids (Creators of Pokémon before being purchased by Nintendo), Hewlett Packard and many others on their trailblazing social media campaigns.
2010 brought the founding of his own full-service digital agency, and he hasn’t looked back since. 98 Buck Social was founded in 2015 and is a social media powerhouse with 43 employees and over 1,400 active clients and growing fast. Our social media marketing agency specializes in custom, high-quality social media marketing services and audience growth at a price point any business can afford. Affordable Facebook and Instagram advertising is also a specialty of ours. We get results, and Chris’ team strives to be the very best social agency worldwide in this price category.

Mallory Thomson
Sales Manager
I was born and raised in Jupiter, Florida, but my heart is in Long Island, New York with my family. I am a Pitbull rescue momma, Cactus admirer, and lover of all things yellow.
After college I expanded my technology knowledge with device repairs. I became great at fixing any device and enjoyed making things work and function at their best. When I was not fixing computers, or repairing iPhones, I am most likely running a 10k, listening to some Post Malone. While repairing devices, I decided to expand my knowledge more and learn how to get into sales. I worked as a sales associate helping people with payday loans. I quickly caught on and ran with it!
Now I am able to combine my love for social media and sales into one amazing career. Being able to live and breathe social media as a career has me feeling blessed. I am always happy to help in any way I can.

With my passion for hospitality, I love to connect with people and help them make their marketing dreams come to life. My favorite part of social media is the constant change, and it excites me to keep learning and staying on my toes!
I love to explore so if you don’t see me in the office you can find me out and about traveling and of course at the beach soaking up the rays with my daughter!

Sarah Pinder
Social Media Content Writer/Photographer
My name is Sarah Pinder and I have been passionate about photography since 2007. In 2008 I decided to turn that passion into a business. I have lived in Florida my whole life and have actually been in the same bedroom since I was 2 years old. When I’m not posting to social media you can find me outside. I love going to the beach, going camping with my family, and playing with my pets. I have 5 dogs, 2 goats, 2 bunnies, 2 birds, reptiles, fish, and the list keeps going. Everyone says I could charge admission to visit my house because it is pretty much a zoo.
I graduated from Palm Beach Atlantic University with a graphic design degree. If you ask anyone who knows me to describe me in one word, most people would say happy! I am usually happy and smiling all day long. My main goal in life is to make people smile! Smiling is my favorite and I believe that if you can make someone smile then you have successfully brightened someone’s day. And there is nothing better than that!

Savannah Spalding
Social Media Content Writer
Hi! I’m Savannah. No, I’m not from Georgia. A Floridian that never tires of all the views the Sunshine State has to offer, you can find me catching a sunset on the west coast most nights of the week…well when I’m not on the sidelines. Mom of 3, my week nights & weekends are typically covered in clay and spent by a dugout.
During the weekday however, I love channeling my creative side into social media marketing. Being a self proclaimed pun queen, a published author & the 6th grade Spelling Bee champ, I like to think of it as the perfect storm for social media success.
When I step away from the computer & the ball field, I try to unwind with yoga or by pouring paint on a canvas and calling it art. I can never visit too many museums, walk barefoot in too many parks, hike too many mountains or dance along at too many concerts.
I love being a part of the 98 Buck Family & helping others reach their business goals while simultaneously living out my own!
