About
Thank you for taking time to view my profile. I've taken my 30+ years in IT and 10 years as a tech marketing executive and actively help other technology companies today explain the problems they solve. So many companies can tell you what they do, but not what they can do... for their customers. So I started two companies to meet the need: Techvangelism helps to engage the technical audience, educate them on the realities of technical challenges, and evangelize the solution through assets like whitepapers, ebooks, case studies, web copy, and custom content, as well as at live events. Conversational Geek simplifies technical topics using some of today's most well-known authors, writers, and speakers to create a fun, engaging book available online as a PDF behind registration, as well as in print for live events. These custom books align the topic with your solution, establishing your company as the expert. TECH AND MARKETING: A UNIQUE PERSPECTIVE - Impactful communicator as a published author and speaker - Prolific creator of every kind of content marketing you can think of - Dynamic speaker at Tradeshows and on Webinars - Provides a truly technical spin on the compelling message he creates. NOT JUST ANOTHER CONTENT GUY - Strategic partner that works to improve your marketing execution and deliver results - Building strategic vision and tactical execution aligning with business goals - Heavy focus on aligning marketing and sales teams to create a cohesive customer experience - Numbers-driven to identify trends and turn Marketing into a predictable business - Creativity in execution based on measurement-based approach - Strives to identify and present a custom marketing message for each customer.
