Thoughts:
I love working with great people and worthy initiatives, with a focus on B2B companies, start ups and entrepreneurs. Doing things the same old way, just because “it has always been done that way", doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Change can be good or even great.
My working style is to dive into the deep end quickly - which helps to manage your budget. I'm just as excited to help build a marketing strategy for a new company as I am to help get a team or organization back on track. I enjoy variety – so tackling mult-faceted projects is no problem. I work best when I'm given access to key team members and I always stick around to support the implementation plan to ensure a successful outcome.
As a start up or company searching for a new direction, you may not know what you need, but I can help you figure it out.
