“We approached Marc about creating a new branding piece to generate awareness and capital funding. We hoped to get a compelling TV commercial. What we got exceeded all of our expectations. With a very small budget, Marc enthusiastically assembled a team of talented advertising veterans including a copywriter, producer, photographer, media planner and production company that provided a director and editor, motion graphics house, music house and recording studio. With everyone working without fees and only hard costs, a project that would have cost over $350,000 was produced for a fraction of that amount. This couldn’t have been accomplished without Marc’s strong creative network.
Marc was also involved strategically and worked closely with our senior management and staff. He developed the campaign tagline, “Where there’s Huckleberry, there’s Hope.” and led the creative team throughout the entire process. As a result, our initial goal of creating a PSA grew into an integrated campaign also featuring outdoor, radio, rich media and more.
Our goals could not have been accomplished without the commitment and passion Marc brought to this project.”

“I enjoyed working with Marc on numerous digital projects for the Jewish Community Center of San Francisco. He was always easy to work with and directed strong work, from landing pages to email and rich media. As a Creative Director, Marc is able to step back and see the big picture allowing ideas to take shape, mature, and adding insight learned from years of experience along the way, leading to a polished final product that always generates successful results.”

“Our small non-profit needed a way to recruit community volunteer tutors. Marc created a print campaign that we have been using for six years. The advertising was so successful, it became an important branding tool for us. Marc readily understood the nature of our mission in the public schools, and the campaign he produced greatly increased our visibility, helping us to reach and enlist 30% more new volunteers in the first year alone. Marc was very easy to work with and brought with him the right resources to give us an enduring product. We are very grateful for his commitment to public education and his quality contributions to our efforts.”
