I always knew I wanted to be a writer, I just never expected that software would be the topic.

I worked in sales and marketing roles for VAR Partners in the Microsoft Dynamics channel since 1999.

My goal is to use simple yet effective marketing methods that generate the most leads for the lowest cost and then patiently nurture those leads into sales.  The best way to do that today is through content marketing, which is a fancy term for writing.

So after all, I am a writer.

I am also the co-founder of:

• www.erpsoftwareblog.com

• www.erpsoftwareblog.com/cloud

• www.crmsoftwareblog.com

• www.channelmktgacademy.com

These successful group blog sites encourage collaboration between more than 150 ERP and CRM partners across the world and educate more than 90,000 readers each month. This started out as a small vision and have grown to be the most recognized group blog sites in our industry.

I am passionate about "using the power of the group" and sharing with others. Since 2006 I have led the BBC Marketing Group, a group of non-competing marketing professionals nationwide that regularly share ideas and best practices.

In 2021 I started the Channel Marketing Academy as a free community for marketers in my channel to come together and share ideas.

In my experience, collaboration truly does work. And it works even better if you are sipping a fancy coffee.
