the right strategy always wins

ABOUT

Strategy. Financial Intelligence. Marketing. Advertising. Campaign Execution. Too bad there isn’t one firm with business savvy and creative chops. A single company that can understand your business operations, soak up your corporate culture and turn that knowledge into knockout business strategies and creative marketing.

Oh wait . . . there is.
How many companies can say they have:

• Produced and directed concerts and music videos for SONY Nashville running in heavy rotation on CMT, GAC, and VH1?

• Created an animated television series for STARZ! Movie Channel?

• Fashioned the strategic business plan for an INC 500 company?

• Won national awards for producing, directing, scoring and photographing a utility campaign promoting clean energy from wind power?

• Developed award-winning marketing campaigns for casinos, golf courses, fishing lures, mortgage brokers, state government organizations, sporting events, television networks, oil field equipment manufacturers and more?

• A founder that has performed in the recording studio and on-stage with Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Famers Bo Diddley, Bob Dylan and James Burton among others?
