"REAL TALK ABOUT MARKETING IN 2024... AND BEYOND
Listen up, because I'm about to drop some truth bombs from decades in the trenches of DRTV and digital marketing.
Remember when we could slap together a killer infomercial, buy some late-night slots, and watch the phones light up? Those were the days. But let me tell you where the real money is now...
Here's what I've learned producing everything from multi-million dollar DRTV campaigns to Emmy-nominated content: The game has changed, but the fundamentals haven't. Whether I'm directing international shoots in Southeast Asia or crafting and award winning campaign, it all comes down to one thing - CONNECTING WITH YOUR AUDIENCE WHERE THEY ARE.

The secret sauce? Adapting your message across every damn platform while keeping it consistent and compelling. I've done this for national companies and scrappy startups alike. The results? Top Ten DRTV rankings, 25% boost in conversion rates, and clients who keep coming back for more.

But here's the kicker - you can't just chase trends. You need to understand the psychology of WHY people buy. That's what separates the players from the pretenders.
Want to know how to pivot? Stop thinking platforms and start thinking PEOPLE. Whether it's TikTok or television, WhatsApp or web series, the winners will be those who understand that technology changes but human nature doesn't.
The future belongs to those who can tell a story that sells, regardless of the medium. And trust me, after producing content across continents and cultures, I know a thing or two about making messages that move markets.
Ready to make some real money in this new landscape? Let's talk.

I completed an extra social media assignment while in the Andes of Peru for USAID NCBA CLUSA and the Farmer to Farmer program. This time it was the Asociacion Virgen de la Asunta Curibaya which are a group of women entrepreneurs that raise guinea pigs for consumption, and a second cooperative which is farming pumpkins. We only had a few hours, but I think we managed to make some real progress towards a potential cooking show and how to produce interesting content for their pages. Fun was had by all.

Another amazing social media assignment under my belt for USAID, NCBA CLUSA Farmer-to-Farmer program with Asociacion Agroindustrial de Plantas Aromaticas-EcoAndes, Candarave Peru.

Years ago I produced a segment on Stock Market trading for Biz Kids, take a look, still relevant today:

Recently I came back from another USAID Farmer to Farmer program through NCBA CLUSA in Ecuador for 2 separate groups teaching them social media and how to take professional pictures with a cell phone. I am so grateful for the opportunity to do this work. Posting a few behind the scenes shots. Thank you to my hosts: Corporación de Asociaciones de la Chakra
Amazónica de Napo and Asociación de Producción Agropecuaria Waylla Kuri de Rukullakta Oro Verde del

Working in exotic places makes this profession truly worthwhile, I am blessed.

It was my great honor to teach communication techniques to Apek Agriculture Kindia, Guinea through Winrock Internationals Farmer to Farmer program. I am so proud of my students!
