Brad Shorr’s Summary

I have an extensive background in B2B executive, sales, and marketing management. In 2005, I started Word Sell, Inc. to help organizations strengthen their online presence, engage in social media marketing, create and manage business blogs, and write compelling Web content.

Companies I work with generally have needs in one or more of these areas -

1. They want to understand how blogs and other "new media" can improve their business.
2. They want to develop a marketing plan that includes new media outreach.
3. They need to update their Web content, but don't have the time or desire to do the writing.
4. They need help creating, managing, and/or marketing their blog(s).
