AMA's mastery workshop last week got me thinking differently. 💭 Here's why...
1. The threats or weaknesses to your or your client's product, service, or initiative could be leveraged to serve a wider audience and/or nurture customers you already have.
2. Never underestimate the building blocks. A marketing campaign will not be as effective if the foundation isn't laid correctly. It's okay to start from the beginning.
Those are just two takeaways that resonated with me. Now, let's get to it. 🏆

TRUST... one of the most important ingredients to a collaborative and effective partnership with a client. I'm so excited to learn more behind-the-scenes strategies at tomorrow's Strategic Marketing Mastery workshop from the American Marketing Association Madison Chapter.

I'm ready to start my day with a win! 🏆

We love producing the best strategies and work possible for our clients, and that's exactly what we've been doing with Jones Dairy Farm for more than ten years. Thankfully, this love isn't one-sided — just hear from Jones Marketing Director, Lisa Caras.

April is about to be an exciting month! Not only am I getting married 🤍 but I am also presenting in a breakout session for WHPRMS (Wisconsin Healthcare Public Relations and Marketing Society)!

➡ I've covered more than a few medical data breaches in my day, and now I am on the other side, helping marketing, public relations, and communications professionals handle crises.

➡ Join me and my rockstar of a boss, Laura Gallagher!

It was motivating to be back in a classroom last night, providing tips to University of Wisconsin-Madison students on how to get from there to here. I am thankful every day to tell stories for our clients at The Creative Company.

The Creative Company is hiring! Since I arrived at this full-service agency, we've talked a lot about Rockford. That's because I'm not the only team member on board with Forest City ties. 😊 This speaks to the high-level skills and attractive personalities my fellow Rockfordians have.

All are welcome to apply!

Exciting Career Opportunities With The Creative Company, Madison WI We hire smart, creative, and curious people who care about others, love to learn, and are driven to succeed.

I had such a good time tonight finding my peace index, what I need to focus on to increase my peace, and how I can bring peace to others. Plus, our very own, Laura Gallagher, reminded me of what my younger self enjoyed doing - writing. 📝
