Summary I'm a marketing professional with over thirty years of experience in journalism, marketing,

public relations, investor relations, sales management and radio. I have worked both in corporate

environments and owned my own companies. I'm also a published author and conference speaker with

five books in print, one of which has been translated into several languages. My core competencies

emerge from my corporate positions involving strategizing marketing plans, both from an employer and

client perspective. My responsibilities as a key planner for a number of well known companies, and my

senior level responsibilities liaising with medium and C level executives gives me an edge over other

candidates with similar skills. I have been intimately involved with analyzing marketing and promotional

plans for top level executives for years, serving as their “eyes and ears” as well as their closest adviser

on all major projects. I have been the creator of important collateral material, voice overs, media scripts

and speeches; and have been heavily relied upon to coach and advise executives on major policy

announcements. Expert level skills in: • MARCOM • Customer relationship marketing, retention and lead

generation • Risk management • Product management, development and pricing • Direct mail • Email and
