Serving on boards of several companies, I advised on all matters related to media including strategic business planning, product & service development, sales & marketing, M&A, and strategic partnerships.

Leveraging my CEO skillset, my remit can vary from a limited engagement each month to one that has me deeply working alongside executives within a company several times a week.

As media changes constantly there is no such thing as product status quo. In order to maintain competitive advantage, you have to consistently upgrade and evolve existing products & services or build and develop new ones.

As an agency CEO and Chief Product Officer, I had to ensure organizational capabilities were built for today and future-proofed for tomorrow. With tangible differentiation and the ability to deliver quantifiable value. Today, I advise clients on their own capabilities -- whether through organizational design, talent development, departmental practice, new products, or sales & marketing.

In the last decade, I have led or participated in nearly 50 media agency reviews, representing more than $32 billion in billings. My win rate in that decade was 53% and as president and CEO for Carat, it was an unprecedented 68%. This has given me extensive perspective into what both agencies and clients are seeking.

Clients hire me to compliment their own teams and advise through the entire review process.

I believe that the right partnerships can meaningfully accelerate growth. I also believe that better media creates better brands, and a better world.

In leveraging my visibility and extensive network of existing and emerging companies, we can achieve more in working together. I also help clients through the negotiation and onboarding process, as needed, to ensure seamless delivery.

Defining a North Star and an operational plan to get there is critical to long term business success.

I use my years of experience in setting strategies within local, regional, and global companies to advise my C-Suite clients. This includes working collaboratively to refine the brand’s positioning, priorities, KPIs, and internal communications and employee alignment.
