Positions

Brand Voice Expert
YES, BRAND / HUMAN EYES CO
United States
June 2022 - Present (2 years 3 months)
In prehistoric times, a 7-figure business would pay a bloated life form known as a “full-service agency” to deliver ALL services - except the one that could turn their client into an 8-figure business.

Later, larger companies constructed in-house creative agencies, bringing all their headaches - you guessed it - in-house. Eventually, over a couple decades as a Copywriter/Publicist, after owning my own bloated agency, I stumbled upon a marriage of creative development and quantifiable direct response campaign science to break your “plateau fever” and hit your expansion targets.

On my Top 2% podcast, YES, BRAND, and as a guest on other podcasts, I help business owners with a wide range of messaging, branding, and copy challenges. Now it’s time for your successful ascension campaign, with the ‘Brand Voice Runway.’

Standup Comedian/Keynote Speaker
April 2011 - Present (13 years 5 months)
While pursuing my copywriting career, I also achieved every level of success imaginable in standup comedy - short of making a living. But I didn’t pursue standup as a career. I pursued it – even took a year off from my business – as a passion, and because humor is so integral to my world view and to my work with brands. Now, I bring all of my life, work, and stage experience together to create singular keynotes. Examples: -Before You Brand Yourself, Find Yourself -Branding from the Inside Out -Truth Tastes Funny
