Collaborative Marketing Services, LLC

Introduction: With more than two decades of diverse experience in business development, finance, marketing and operations, I help professionals Link in their common interests, share resources and GROW (Gain Rewards, Opportunities and Well-Being) with innovative resource collaboration, value communication, and market visibility. Use the CMS 5-V 1440 Model for planning a new business, product or service, multiple Ad-Visor® shared direct mail and traditional advertising products to market it, HOP Speed Networking® events to stay visible, and GOTIPS process, policy and procedure manuals to keep it running smoothly. More than twenty-million Americans own and operate an independent, non-employer business. Close to 5 million more operate a micro business with fewer than 10 employees. Together, representing an average of more than 500,000 net jobs per year for the last decade, their net job creation outnumbered that of all other business size classes by more than 3 to 1. Brick and mortar stores, service providers and innovators have a personal stake in the benefits they provide their markets. Too many, though, get caught in the catch-22 of not having enough resources (money, people, time) to attain and sustain the resources they need to grow. Collaboration breaks the cycle. I love helping partners, connections and clients find unique ways to break the cycle and gain the rewards, opportunities and well-being (GROW) as they desire.
