My journey into marketing began over 20 years ago while working in
the modeling industry in California and South Florida.
Working with clients to produce effective media campaigns through
the use of print, television, trade shows and runway, made me aware
of the numerous outlets available to expose your product to the
public and to create desire for that product by delivering that
information to the consumer. My career took me to
several continents, where I witnessed the universal language of
marketing.
After moving back to Mississippi, I spent five years in media sales,
mostly in television advertising, but also in radio and newspaper
advertising and was a top producer. I attribute this
mainly to the relationships I developed with my clients, my honesty,
organizational skills and genuine interest in working toward their
success. During the next six years, I began to
develop technical skills in web development and electronic
newsletters while working with a partner in a worldwide software
development and consulting firm. I also began to work in
channel development, public relations, promotions, convention and
event planning and trade shows exhibitions.
My experience and skill set is presented to you along with my desire
to help each of my clients achieve the exposure that will enhance
their position in the market through customized strategies and
implementation that will deliver results. Please contact
me to schedule a consultation so that I can help your business
achieve success.
