The word I use for folks like Jon is ‘sharp.’
He helped me get to the root of what my brand stands for and why I do what I do — and how to communicate that to potential customers in a way that makes them pay attention.
As a person, Jon is incredibly warm and sweet, intelligent and clear-thinking. I felt at ease staking out this new direction for my business with him. He really exceeded all my expectations.

What I do
I make sure customers choose you, not your competitors.

How? By strengthening your brand through effective design and compelling messaging.
Here's how I can help you:

The halo effect in marketing
About the cognitive bias dubbed the “halo effect,” and how it works in design and marketing.
What a theology book taught me about the nature of brands
What is a brand? Some define a brand as “not what you say it is, but what they say it is.” I explain why that’s wrong, and how brands are similar to books and even God.
Let’s talk one-on-one.
During our 30-minute intro call, we’ll discuss your business: Where it’s at, what your goals are, and what’s standing in the way of you reaching them.
You will also have the opportunity to ask questions about me and my process.
Then, we’ll decide if we want to work together. Oh — and if we don’t seem like a good fit (“good fit” = I can help you make more money), I’ll simply tell you.
