Ryan Wines’s Summary

Building on more than eight years of success in new media, innovative marketing strategy, public relations, client management, and new business development, I currently manage agency PR and marketing for the largest, independently-owned, response-driving advertising agency in the country. In my free time, I manage my own boutique agency for independent artists and musicians.

The world of advertising, marketing and consumer communication is changing much faster than anyone is willing to admit. Technology and new forms of communication are quickly giving leverage back to consumers, bringing an end to centuries-old methods of one-way messaging and stories of big brands hitting consumers over the head with their message.

Undeniably, a revolution is taking place among us and "the people" are demanding a new order of business. Like many others, I'm tirelessly working to better understand what this all means, how it will truly impact the world around us, and how to best leverage this "sea change" for ultimate success.
