Mark shared great insight and actionable advice on lead nurturing and email marketing. Much appreciated!

Provided all the value and did not hold back information "for further research". Great value !

I've had the pleasure of working closely with Mark on a number of client accounts over the past six months. His expertise as a digital strategist is complemented by his ability to take complex concepts and break them down into easily understandable ideas. Although he's great at looking at the big picture and developing strategic plans, he's also very organized and skilled at creating clear, comprehensive working documents to guide implementation. Most importantly, Mark has a positive and professional attitude, making him a pleasure to work with and a trusted adviser whom I'm proud to introduce to clients.

Mark Smiciklas gets social media and its importance to the ENTIRE company, not just marketing. Whether it's blogging, info-graphic creation, speaking and presentations, or consulting, Mark brings clear-headed, thoughtful, spot-on ideas about the social Web and its societal impacts. Find a way to work with him somehow. You'll be glad you did.

Mark has been a contributing author for my industry blog Social Media Explorer since the fall of 2010. His visualizations and creativity alone are a phenomenal addition to the thought leadership and idea-starting content we produce, but Mark adds a seasoned layer of strategy, business and experience on top of that. He's one of the few people I know who mixes such a high level of creativity with an expert level of strategic thinking in the marketing world, let alone the social media marketing world. He's an invaluable member of our team.

As a guest expert, Mark Smiciklas shared his knowledge with the BOSS Entrepreneurs at Capilano University. He fielded a breadth of questions and provided practical, valuable and thorough responses.

Mark knows what he's talking about and is a rare commodity in that he has both deep experience and the ability to share it with others.

In a world now filled with "social media consultants" it's a pleasure to meet someone like Mark who understands the difference between strategy and execution.

I recently hired Mark to help us flesh out our post-catalog strategy and his insights into digital marketing have really helped us focus on what will provide the best bang for our bucks.
Mark is able to develop a high level strategy while constantly offering the most up to date tactics. He interacted very well with the web team and was seen as a very reliable partner by all involved.
I highly recommend Mark who brings intense knowledge of the digital marketing world at a reasonable price.

Mark has done amazing work in setting up our company's digital media strategy. The creativity and vision he brought was outstanding. He has provided our marketing team with a solid strategic plan and has interacted with them very well. Mark is someone that takes his profession very seriously, but definitely knows how to have fun as well. That quality has made our working relationship very enjoyable.

Mark designed and delivered a very effective session to my 4th year eMarketing students at the Sauder School of Business at UBC. I get a lot of offers from experts to speak to my students. However, subject expertise alone is not sufficient to add value to the learning experience in the classroom. I chose to work with Mark because he understood the communication and learning process, and he was willing to collaborate on design a session that was both customized to the audience need and involved interactive engagement activities. The session was great and I am happy to recommend Mark for similar activities in education or industry training.
