The Success of Hoboken and NJ Business Owners and Their Brand Stories

It took a while to get this blog up and going. Boy, it's been a busy few weeks, but this I HAD to share. In our 2nd showing of the best of marketing and branding in our local digs, EB & A came together with The Hudson Reporter, Ganache Cafe and PNC Bank to talk "Brand Stories", a.k.a, B.S. (that's only if you want to abbreviate it.)

The results, you ask?
40 inspired and motivated business owners. Comments were positive and uplifting and once again, we see the value that marketing and brand equity and what they mean to our business and our prospects.

Thank you to everyone involved, to Dave and Cory at the Turtle Club, Larry at Full House Printing, Danielle at Renaissance Pilates, Sherry Sexton at the T Shirt to Prove It (Yes, we're published in her book.) and to my intern Carly Wilden for your support, collaboration and interest in building a smarter, sassier marketing community where we reside.

Rock on.

ICON Dance Complex is Live Baby

There are many times in which I do backflips in the office or do the happy dance around our desks. Today is one of those days. As part of the EB & A marketing package, web design is an offering that we take seriously. We believe in quality and we pride ourselves on working closely with DESERVING clients. The relationships we build during the process of building a website or any project is respected. I cannot express how thankful I am to be at the helm of the NEW ICON Dance Complex website project and I am pleased and honored to work alongside of the ICONs, GEO and Beth.


I want to thank my team at EB & A for working with me on this beautiful project. We stand for quality and customer service. Thank you for being amazing and congratulations to ICON Dance Complex and their audience base.


WOW! and THANK YOU! www.icondancecomplex.com.

TEDxGotham-The Inaugural Event

Look forward to October 15th. Read on for details...


Over the course of this year, I have had the honor of being inducted to work with a stellar group of individuals such as Edward, Melek, Ayesha, Todd, Marc, Liz and many others that represent the new TEDxGotham brand. One of the first tasks for us was to successfully position the brand with a statement that we could use in all marketing materials: "TEDxGotham brings together New York City's brightest innovators and thought leaders at an annual event to share stories and create lasting connections."


Next, we launched the web, www.TEDxGotham.org and now we're building sponsorships, networking and growing the marketing message to the point where we'll bask in the success of  400 seated attendees, nearly 15 imperial speakers and a creative collaborative success. Please visit www.TEDxGotham.org today and learn about our event on October 15th this year. You may want to invest your business and creative mind towards something new this year and I highly recommend that you do. Call me with questions, I am one of the chairs of strategic marketing and sponsorships. 201.217.6608. And if you're not familiar with the power, the indulgence of intelligence or greatness of the TED brand, you need to fill yourself in. Get empowered NOW: www.TED.com.

ICON Dance Complex Web Re-Launch

Get ready for over 40 pages of ICONic goodness; all packed and loaded for their NEW re-launch on September 7th (the day after Labor Day). Each URL link is being finalized, prepped, dusted off, vacuumed, hugged, kissed, washed and set to dry and sparkle for their debut to an audience in the thousands. This project is one of EB & A's most proud websites because the client, ICON, is ready to be ICONic. They were ready for change and new; and thus gave us room to surge the creativity. We are very proud that ICON will soon be able to update their site from every page (all CMS) and with so much going on, they're going to have a much easier way of making their mark online all year long. If your'e a corporation reading this, click to their new bookings page to see how you can make your next event ICONic. If you're a colleague, bask in their creativity and congratulate GEO and Beth on their incredible, thriving business. If you're an artist, send in a drawing for the new annual St. Jude Children's Research Hospital fundraiser we created. (Yes, the hospital that Danny Thomas started.) Congrats. The re-launch happens Tuesday, September 7th. You can thus visit www.icondancecomplex.com to see the new.
