Interview Q&A

We formed in January 2010, though our staff has more than 40 years combined experience in public relations, social media and marketing.
What is your primary product or service?
Public Relations, Inbound Marketing and Social Media consulting/training services.
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
My career has spanned several industries including broadcasting, healthcare, non-profit organizations and higher education. I have always been interested in telling stories--whether it be that of an individual, company or organization.
My work in the news media includes positions as an editor, journalist and host of a radio talk show. As vice president of Kansas City Public Television I was credited with creating greater public awareness of KCPT's mission, programming and initiatives. I left the television industry to create a communications division for one of Kansas City's leading special events firms.
For three years I served on the EventPros Inc. production team as director of marketing and public relations for KCRiverFest, one of Kansas City's largest community festivals. It was a finalist for Best International Festival by Special Event magazine.
