My hourly rate is $120 (per item) - Place the hours you need into the basket.

Got ad problems? I'm no psychiatrist, but I have been to a few rodeos and been thrown from a few horses. I've been an ECD and a lowly scrub. Are you a client, young creative or seasoned creative director who could use a pep talk, or a sounding board? Fire away. Are you building your website and need advice on what to keep? I can help you make cuts. Are you interviewing for a job, and need to brush up on your people skills? I'm your breath mint. Perhaps you're an art director trying to cobble together a set of words to describe yourself, or your services. I'm your guy. Are you a client who needs to know if your work is cutting through, or not happy with your agency? I'd be happy to weigh in. Need someone to be brutally honest with you about your work? I can do that too, and delicately. I can be your mentor.

I've spent a career in the ad trenches and can give you perspective.

Sometimes it's nice to talk to a stranger about your problems. It'll be our little secret. Promise. And If I haven't got the right answer, I probably know someone who does.

Reach out. I'll be in touch within 24 hours. Sooner if you've gone to the roof. I'll be the guy with the megaphone, before the cops arrive.

If you're a student, It's entirely likely I'll arrange a more digestible rate for you. After all, I've been there, too.

For the rest of you, my hourly fee is $120 per hour, with a one-hour minimum. Place however many hours (items) you think you may need in the basket to get going. Oh, heck, just start with one.

FREE YOUR MIND. Need a little advice? An hour will probably do. Students just entering into the business are one of my favorite subjects. Particularly if your parents have no idea what you actually do. I can critique your work and help you formulate a plan to get the right gig. I'm not a headhunter, just an advisor and I'll give it to you straight. I can help you put your best foot forward.

If you're rebuilding a website, I can advise you on content and/or flow, but that will probably require more time. And if you want me to write your bio and a few blurbs for other pages, that's fair game, too. Your best bet would be to invest in an hour and I can bid the job after we chat.

Clients are welcome to engage with me, too. Particularly if you're looking for a brand steward or have a project and need foundational thinking or a SWAT team. I have lots of talented freelance friends.

I'm happy to help in any way I can. That's what good mentors do.

Let's chat.
