With a bachelor of science degree in marketing, I have over 30 years' experience in marketing, sales and management. I am the founder and president of Cincinnati Marketing Solutions, a full service marketing firm in Cincinnati, Ohio. My passion is assisting owners of small to medium sized businesses and nonprofit leaders with their marketing efforts to increase awareness, revenue, and continuous growth. Our team of marketing experts does this by developing and implementing SMART marketing strategies and tactics including: customized marketing plans, branding, re-branding, website/logo design and strategy, search engine optimization, ad words campaigns, social media marketing, email/direct mail marketing programs, public relations, and copy writing. At CMS, we realize that most small businesses and nonprofits lack dedicated marketing support and grand budgets for marketing initiatives. Our team develops strategic marketing plans with goals and objectives that are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and timely. It is our desire to become your outsourced marketing department so you can focus on other aspects of your business or organization.In addition, I'm an editor for Greater Cincinnati Nonprofit News, the premium weekly e-publication for everyone who works, volunteers or does business with nonprofits in our region. In partnership with local nonprofits and our sponsors, we strive to create a more informed, open and connected community, by sharing nonprofit news, job openings, and resources with over 6,500 nonprofit professionals in Greater Cincinnati, Northern Kentucky, and Southern Indiana. I also handle company sponsorship development for the publication. My other passion is sports and fitness! In my free time you'll find me at a local gym taking a yoga, Pilates or aqua fit class. I also love water and snow skiing, hiking, walking, traveling, and spending time with my growing family and friends. I've truly enjoyed watching my daughters play college volleyball and soccer. My son, a graduate of St. Xavier High School and Miami University in Oxford, Ohio enjoyed playing the sport of Quidditch. An avid New England Patriots fan, I also have two granddogs named Tedy and Brewski, who have their own Instagram channel (#twocutedudes).Specialties: Digital marketing, branding and identity; Marketing strategy, tactics and planning; consulting small to medium sized companies who lack expertise and/or time to devote to developing and executing SMART marketing solutions.
