What makes a good advertisement great? A great ad,
first, has stopping power! It somehow manages to be
different from the rest and grab your attention.
But after that, it also reinforces your brand and tells
your story as succinct as possible.

The above samples detail some of my many years of
experience crafting simple, eye catching ads that
reach all these goals.

As you'll see as you browse the portfolio
my experience ranges from B2B advertising which
often involved high-tech coporations, such as Toshiba.
But also covers a wide range of other types of clients from indie movie makers, to churches to local small businesses needing advertising.

Enjoy checking these out and don't hesitate to give me a call to quote your next advertising project. And for a limited time tell me the name of the dinosaur mentioned on this website and get a free hour of design time with or without hiring me for a project! And again, thanks for stopping by!
