Richard Pachter’s Summary

In addition to my "real" job as Online Brand Marketing Manager at TracFone, I'm also The Miami Herald's internationally syndicated Business Books columnist, and a freelance writer, consultant and blogger.

Richard Pachter’s Specialties:

Giving clarity to the incomprehensible. Stressing benefits over features. Enabling sales efforts. Cutting to the chase.

Also: Opining, pontificating and bloviating.
