James Hills’s Summary

I am the President and Chief Marketing Officer for mhn PR and Internet Marketing, a PR and Internet Marketing agency in Elgin, IL (just west of Chicago). We specialize in working with small to medium sized businesses to promote their companies online using a variety of methods including Public Relations, Web Design, Social Media, SEO, and SEM.

Formerly, I held marketing positions including Director of Marketing for TLC Industries, North America's largest coin-op arcade game manufacturer. Before that, I served as Public Relations Manager for several independent computer game and software manufacturers including eGenesis and Vicarious Visions.

Additionally, I have extensive journalism experience, with credits including washingtonpost.com, Washington Post Express, NewsForge.com, Slashdot.org, Linux Magazine, GameSpy.com, and GameShark.com.

I also enjoy discussions of how technology impacts business, both from a historical perspective as well as a contemporary and theoretical perspective. I am always looking for people to share their views with me.
