Owner, MarketBuilding Team - Marketing and Advertising Consultant
Greater San Diego Area
President of The MarketBuilding Team, a strategic marketing consulting firm based in San Diego creating unique marketing solutions and profitable results, primarily in the B2B arena.
In the industry since 1981. 10 years on Madison Avenue, including eight years as principal of W. L. Harvey Marketing Communications, Inc. Author of two books on marketing, and creator of the newspaper marketing advice column ASK MR. MARKETING.
While specializing in business and marketing planning for companies under $50 million, we develop and implement every type of marketing service imaginable. Proficient with high-tech, low-tech and no-tech marketing of every sort.
Because I've played every role in the marketing development world, I'm frequently called upon to cross lines within an organization in search of overlooked opportunities. By developing alliances at all levels in a client company, I've developed a track record of unexpected profit centers.
Currently seeing substantial interest and activity in developing in-house marketing agencies; corporate training; and electronic newsletters/communications. Though I take my work quite seriously, I can still laugh at myself. As such, I enjoy working within an organization that appreciates what intelligent marketing can bring to the table, and is run by grown-ups who know how to have fun.
