  Strategic Marketing Consultant

  I offer a holistic approach to marketing. After clearly understanding your needs I, along with a team of experts, explore all avenues of marketing...online & offline to provide you with solid, well rounded strategies to achieve your goals. We build a picture of your customer/patient journey and maximize your ROI with our data driven solutions. I have a unique perspective on advertising and marketing....11 years ago I faced a challenge (not unlike many of you do every day). I held a product in my hand and had to figure out how to market it. No one knew what "it" was, so how could I make them want it...Buy it, Use it, Love it and Buy it again?It was newly invented; it looked different, was a different shape, different size and even had a different primary function than traditional competitors in the same category. Yet, it needed to sit in the same space. Consumers wondered what the odd shaped item was (that initially appeared too small to do what its competitors did). I sought to understand this buyer, I learned about their lifestyle, values, shopping habits, etc. I figured out what would ultimately be the deciding factor prior to purchasing it and spoke to them about it. My plan came together. I didn't do it alone and it didn't happen overnight, but I can proudly say that this product now sits on the shelves of almost every mass retailer in the US and around the world. It's hit critical mass and is highly recognizable and its function completely understood. It has undergone several versions, improvements and been duplicated by countless competitors over the years. The development and launch of this product along with my vast experience helping businesses develop marketing plans in their local marketplaces in the US and UK has helped me to understand consumer psychology, positioning and sell through. Its shaped the way that I consult my clients today. Show less
