Hey everyone, Jeff here! You know, for as long as I can remember, I've been absolutely fascinated by the wild, ever-changing world of advertising, marketing, and its intertwining throughout business. It all started when I was about 20 and I knew right then and there that I wanted to run my own agency one day which I accomplished back in 2014. Let's fast forward through the last 20 years; from internship and employment at ad agencies, to silicon valley start up, to CBS Television, and eventually a one-person show run out of half a duplex that grew to a 15 person, 7 figure ad agency in Ethic Advertising Agency over 10 years. Now, as of 2024, Ethic has been acquired by Blink Advertising where I had the pleasure of co-running an 8 figure, 30 person agency that specializes in strategy, media, branding, creative, website/SEO, and video production for an additional year before my second successful exit. I've also developed, launched, and manage Qujam, a DIY geofence advertising platform which is my primary focus, became an author, consult to entrepreneurs, and teach and mentor at Duquesne University and Robert Morris University. It's a fun, exciting journey that has always been about helping others succeed, whether it's my incredible team, our clients, or even folks like you who are tuning in. And trust me, I've picked up a few lessons along the way, some of which even made it into my free e-book, "9 Reasons Advertising Doesn't Work" as well as my new book on entrepreneurship called "The Intentional Leap." I live in Pittsburgh, PA with my lovely wife and two kids.
