MY APPROACH

Strategic communications goes beyond creating and spreading punchy business messages . It helps solve business problems. stave off competitive challenges and bolster your competitive position. But most all of it can win hearts and minds, motivating the behavior necessary to drive business results.  

 

It all starts with your business strategy and goals and the differentiated customer value you deliver, then communicating how you meet what the market needs better than the rest. Compelling - even amazing - story and content delivered across a number of channels and around the globe are key, all giving customers the information they want, where they want it. So is giving the customer a voice in the conversation.

And it all zeroes in on what you need to deliver most - business results. Happy customers, business partners and other stakeholders.

Theresa Marcroft

Michael is a strategic corporate communications thinker who aligned key analysts and industry influencers to participate in major initiatives. His efforts enhanced our market leadership and brand value. 

Gabe Foo

Director of Marketing, Demand Generation

& Social Media Marketing Expert

Michael's business and marketing acumen shapes every aspect of his strategic thinking and accounts for much of his success as a leader, mentor, collaborator and communicator. Mike inspires uncommon loyalty among his team members and nurtures a can-do environment for organizational success.

Hal Fujimori

Reporter at Bloomberg News

Michael works to very high standards. His organisation was always immaculate, the executives he connected me to for interviews well-briefed and the sessions ended up being of the highest quality. Follow-through was always faultless and good-natured and there was a noticeable attention to detail on every level. 

I wish all public relations were done this well.

John Dunn

Editor and co-founder at Techworld (IDG)

Sales prospects want independent corroboration of product value before deciding to buy. Mike delivers in spades through his work developing high-impact strategic communications and propagating those messages worldwide through market analysts, the press and the social media sphere.

 

Make no mistake: Mike is a friend of any sales team, laying important groundwork for the customer call and, ultimately, closing the sale
