Jim and company ALWAYS deliver. They were forced on me by an interim CEO, but they did so well that I brought them along to my next gig. One of the best creative teams you’ll ever work with – and they totally get all of the business and political issues, too.
I had the pleasure of closely collaborating with Jim Mercado on various marketing initiatives and wholeheartedly recommend him. As our Agency Partner and Creative Director, Jim showcased exceptional creative problem-solving skills, leading successful initiatives in website development, tradeshow support, and overall marketing assistance.
If you are after exceptional creative work to move your business forward, then look no further than the profile you are on right now: Jim Mercado and his Creative Octane.
I’ve had the pleasure (and success) of working with Jim at three different companies over my B2B marketing career. He’s not just the most creative person I know but also a trusted colleague, source of wisdom.
