Brian Critchfield’s Summary

Besides my reputation as a connoisseur of brainless comedies and Barry Manilow music, I am an international expert on word of mouth marketing, marketing strategy, and online marketing. I have worked with hundreds of companies to generate amazing results and honed a formula for building word of mouth marketing from the inside out in the process.

I have over 16 years of marketing, sales, and business development experience. I have launched and built companies, divisions, and brands worldwide. My specialty is in creating markets where they didn't exist before.

I started Navel Marketing in August 2007 after launching and growing Idaho's 3rd largest marketing agency. Navel Marketing was created to help companies learn how to market from the inside out and then use word of mouth tools to arm their customers spread the word for them.

I've won awards, served on boards of directors, and have degrees from prestigious schools. I even blog for one through the Thunderbird Knowledge Network. But I am most proud of four beautiful daughters who keep me humble.
