About

Marketing has one simple job. Get people to do something that generates revenue.

The first step is to tightly identify the customer. Then, we will pick the right tools for the job. Marketing is more than: communication campaigns, PR, branding, social media, or the other “marketing” disciplines. These are the tools of marketing.

My education includes a double major in Finance and Marketing with heavy exposure to Economics and Business Management. I have a strong background in software, especially Client Relationship Management (CRM). These skills allow me to look at a client’s business and determine the right solution.
