CK's For Hire...yep, I'm "for hire" (but can't be bought)
If you're seeking
smarts, energy and creativity you've found the right person.
Conversely, if you're seeking someone less passionate and more subdued,
I completely respect that (and you), but you should probably seek
elsewhere.
I'm particularly good at three things: (1) Ideas + (2) Programs + (3) People. Put those together--or retain ME to put those three together--and you've got an epiphany (or two).
My focus is pretty darn focused: creating value for the companies I work for and even more value for their customers and clients. Value creation is, after all, marketing's entire reason-for-being (and anyone who tells you differently is singing you a song).
While I have a website for my consultancy, I can be retained for services in five practice areas spanning online and off-line initiatives:
- Strategy & Planning: Identifying the "who," "what," and "how" to meet your revenue goals and then making a plan to do exactly that.
- Program Development: Developing unique (and clever!) programs that engage people around brands, businesses and causes.
- Social Media (WOM): Leveraging social media tools and technologies to build audiences, create communities and get closer to your markets.
- Writing: Creating pieces that get people and the press talking--and listening.
- Speaking: Conducting dynamic presentations that entertain while educating (hint: if they're laughing it's a sure-fire sign they're listening).
Why would you want to retain me to help you? Here's a few reasons:
- My range: While people remark on my smarts, I've found my range is most valuable to my clients. I made the decision early on that I would dedicate myself to being a marketing specialist meaning, I would hone my strategic and tactical skills. Whether online or off, your execution has to follow a sound strategy and your strategy isn't worth two cents unless it's well executed.
- My cred: I've worked with the biggies on projects (Fortune 50, not just Fortune 500), I've done the MBA and the multi-million dollar budgets. While terrific experiences, I take the most pride in people far smarter than I investing time in what I have to say--and here's some things they've said.
- I'm audience-approved: Clients often tell me they not only love my work, they love working with me (I love them, too). They keep coming back, and we keep getting results. It's a great arrangement.
- I think and act globally: I travel anywhere for projects. In fact, I fancy different markets, be they big city or emerging region. Plus, I'm only a New York City yellow-cab ride away from three major airports. That said, I hate flying (but I deal).
Need more stuff? No problem. What kind of marketer would I be if I didn't market me?
