Mike O'Neill Email & Phone Number

"Mike is a "Renaissance brand thinker." He has an uncommonly well balanced set of talents that combines the precision of a businessman, the insightfulness of a brand planner and the originality of thought that one typically finds in a copywriter. This confluence of talents enables him to get to the heart of a brand without any sort of bias." Jack Rooney, Chairman & CEO, Ogilvy & Mather ChicagoBACKGROUND: michaelcjoneill.comI love game-changing ideas and big, smart thinking, but that doesn’t set me apart from many people. What does set me apart is my real-world experience that has taught me how to wrestle those ideas to the ground, distill them into stories and then into action. After working at big name ad. agencies, I co-founded a lean creative group called Frank, and then went on to put my money where my mouth was by launching my own consumer product, Jimi wallet (nyti.ms/1mNEuGL).Jimi quickly found a place in the Smithsonian’s Cooper Hewitt and MoMA design stores, and I was approached by William McDonough’s Cradle-to-Cradle Institute to receive accreditation. Despite the satisfaction of having my own business, I still crave the company and thinking of like-minded people, and the rewards of collaborative work, so actively consult with companies big and small.
