Is this the part where I talk about brand voice, distribution, and storytelling across the funnel? Or say we “help companies scale content that converts”?

𝗪𝗲 𝗱𝗼 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁.

But what we really do is write content your team doesn’t have to worry about, so you can stay focused on strategy, not sentence structure.

𝗛𝗲𝘆, 𝗜’𝗺 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽𝗵𝗲𝗻. 👋

And my path here hasn’t exactly followed a playbook:
Banking → Law School → Teaching → L&D → Content

(Yeah… it’s been a ride.)

Today, I run a B2B content agency with my wife. We keep it lean and personal — just the two of us, plus our kids and a couple barky mini schnauzers. 

At Damn Smart Marketing, we give marketers writing they can trust and results they can stand behind.

✓ Content that sounds like you (not a template, not bland AI)
✓ Full support from idea to publication
✓ A partner who gets content
✓ Zero fluff, zero hand-holding
✓ More time to focus on what matters

In other words: you get to 🚀 while we handle the ✍️.

𝗟𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮 𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿? 𝗧𝘄𝗼 𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝘄𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸:

1️⃣ 𝗗𝗼𝗻𝗲-𝗳𝗼𝗿-𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘀.
Blogs, LinkedIn posts, newsletters, case studies. If it’s got words, we’ll write it. You get to run the show without sweating every sentence.

2️⃣ 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗲𝗱𝗜𝗻 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀.
We’ve built an AI-assisted workflow that makes posting easy, effective, and actually worth reading.

If you're curious, DM me. 

No cold, hard pitch, I promise. Just a real convo about where you’re headed and whether some damn smart content can help.

See you later, LinkedIn…

Donna and I are headed to Florence! 

It’s been a crazy busy year — energizing, exhausting, meaningful, relentless — and we made it through together.

Now it’s time to unplug.

We’re swapping client deadlines for slow mornings in Santo Spirito.

Zoom calls for Chianti pours.

Content calendars for Tuscan sunsets.

And yes, I fully plan to come back with a few extra pounds…
kilos, if you will.

See you soon!
Arrivederci!

LinkedIn organic reach is ☠️... right?

I synced up with my favorite career coach, Julia Korn, to share 5 pro tips from the 1000+ LinkedIn posts I wrote for execs this year. 

And the 10M+ impressions and 20K+ followers they drove. 
... Organically. 

1. Write like you talk
2. Get real
3. Subtract
4. Where's the proof?
5. Post, adapt, repeat

The article is LIVE (!)

Donna (extrovert): Let's be room hosts at MarketingProfs B2B Forum!
Me (introvert): ahahaha cool cool cool 😅 😱 ☠️

But where else can you hang with hundreds of B2B diehards?

Where else can you get a front-row seat to the sharpest voices in marketing and walk away with a dozen lines you wish you’d written?

Where else can you see Ann Handley dance alongside a marching band?

So yeah… 
This guy’s a room host. 

If you need me, I’ll be by the door acting like I didn’t rehearse my “welcome everyone!” a dozen or more times. 

And apparently I’m doing it again tomorrow. 🤷

### **When a Dog’s Best Friend Is… Mercedes-Benz? 🐾**  
**This Pup’s New Wheels Will Make Your Heart Race**  

Meet Bunny, a lovable pup who struggled to get around—until an unlikely hero stepped in: **Mercedes-Benz**.  

Now, you wouldn’t expect a luxury car company to care about a dog’s mobility, right? But that’s exactly what happened. Instead of simply donating money or offering generic support, Mercedes engineers took a hands-on approach, applying their cutting-edge skills to **design a custom wheelchair just for Bunny**.  

And they didn’t just throw something together. They approached it **like a high-end engineering project**, fine-tuning every detail to give Bunny the best possible mobility—just like they would for one of their iconic cars.  

### **More Than Just Mobility—A Whole New Life**  
The result? Not only could Bunny move again, but she could **explore, play, and experience the world in ways she never could before**. What started as a simple act of kindness became a **powerful example of purpose-driven innovation**.  

This story isn’t just about one dog—it’s about what happens when companies **use their expertise to make a real difference**.  

### **A Lesson in Innovation with Heart**  
Mercedes-Benz didn’t have to do this. But they did. And it’s got people talking: **What if more companies used their skills not just for profit, but for impact?**  

It makes you wonder—what other game-changing innovations could come from **thinking beyond the bottom line**?  

Maybe the next breakthrough won’t just be about horsepower… but about helping another furry friend run free. 🐶💨

**💭 Small Acts, Big Love**

We can’t all do great things — but we *can* do small things with great love and compassion.

**A Lonely Birthday… and Two Kind Smiles**

Another year. Another milestone.
The calendar moved forward, but the house stood still — filled only with quiet echoes and memories.

He sat alone on his birthday, the chair beside him empty.
Her favorite coffee mug remained untouched.
Time moved slowly in the silence.

Then, two young women stopped by.
“Happy Birthday, sir!” they said, smiling.

They didn’t just bring gifts or cake.
They brought *presence.*
They listened — to his stories, to his love for his late wife, to the dreams he thought no one cared about.

His eyes brightened.
He smiled.
For a moment, his loneliness faded.

Laughter filled the space where silence once lived.
Connection replaced distance.
And hope quietly bloomed in an aging heart.

---

**💡 Lessons to Remember:**

1. Small acts of kindness can change a life.
2. Listening is one of the most powerful gifts.
3. Every day brings a chance to make someone’s heart smile.
4. The smallest gestures often create the biggest impact.
5. A simple conversation can be a blessing.
6. Compassion costs nothing — but gives everything.

💥 The Moment That Changed Everything
No pause. No apology. No break in energy.
She turned a malfunction into magic.
A broken chair became her memorable moment.
The crowd erupted.
They witnessed something rare:
→ Grace under pressure
→ Resilience in real time
→ A performer who refused to let circumstances define her

Here’s the truth:
The chair will break.
Maybe it’s:
The presentation that crashes
The client meeting that goes sideways
The project that collapses
The day everything falls apart

You have a choice:
Collapse with the broken chair → or → Rise above it.

People forget perfect presentations.
They forget flawless speeches.
They forget smooth sailing.
But they never forget the person who turned disaster into triumph.

The lesson:
No one is coming to save you.
You save yourself — by how you respond.

Who will you become when it does?
