David Chalk is the most passionate, driven, positive, calculated and compassionate leader I have ever met. He is powerful and forward-thinking yet down-to-earth and personable. He is highly strategic and visionary yet always in the moment and can process information at the speed of light. He is the sharpest listener and speaker I have ever come across and balances the two skills impeccably. I consider myself extremely fortunate to be able to work with David and soak up what I can while I can. (Note to reader: there is no ulterior motive behind this recommendation, it exists for it's own sake).

I know David from the BCAMA Senior Executive Program of which we are both members along with more than 20 other executive level marketers in Vancouver. Since the very first time I had the opportunity to interact with David, I have always impressed with his genuinely unique perspective and insightful contributions. He has a way of looking at a problem from a completely different angle than most and never ceases to amaze me with how creative and yet practical his input is. He has been a valuable part of our Senior Executive team and I would recommend engaging David on a wide range of business challenges.

David Chalk is a foward-thinking senior business executive with deep IT knowledge and real life business experience. It is this *combination* that is David's secret sauce.

I have known David since 1976 and he has always been an achiever—in his personal endeavors and his business ventures.

I recommended his company (Chalk Media) in 1996 to do a video for a new CRM related software tool and he delivered a compelling video that told the right story to our audience. At the time his work as the message visionary was leading-edge stuff!

Again, I hired him in 2000 to produce a flash sales-presentation-tutorial for a knowledge management product called Plan B, and again he asked all the right questions to get to the heart of our needs and more importantly he zeroed in on the needs our ideal customer to produce something that worked.

I would not hesitate to recommend David (in his new organization)—as the go-to guy—whenever you need a senior and seasoned marketing mind to tackle a challenge your company is having. He can help you grow your business.

Please do not hesitate to contact me to discuss his credentials and a fit for your business requirements.

Dave Chalk is unique! I have known Dave for 20 years and I can honestly say that he is one of the few people I have met that possess such clarity, purpose and vision. Dave thinks on a completely different plane than most and as such can conceive of and deliver results that will exceed expectations. Dave’s marketing savvy combined with his successful track record gives him a depth and breadth of knowledge that others can now benefit from in his new venture. Dave has my highest recommendation.

David is a brilliant entrepreneur who introduced me not only to the computer business, but exposed me to the intracacies of business and marketing strategy. No wonder he was a top Under-40 achiever with YEO. Although David understood every aspect of running and growing a thriving business, his real passions were in marketing and branding, realizing early on that branding not only the business but every differentiating feature of it was key. David remains among the most savvy business marketers I've ever known.

David is a passionate entrepreneur and speaker who really connects with people by sharing his insights on technology, marketing and branding. His knowledge of the digital world made a big impact as the keynote speaker at Carlson Wagonlit Travel's conference in Florida. I enjoy working with David and would recommend his services to any business.
