Call me to talk about

Social Media Marketing

I currently run Tiny Jetpack, a boutique social media marketing firm aimed at the music industry (artists, labels, etc.) and music technology startups. Formerly I was Community Director, New Media at Warner Bros. Records, running web, social, and fanclub properties for some 50+ artists. Ask me anything about social media marketing, music industry-specific questions, or just ask me what it was like to work with Josh Groban.

Music Technology Startups

I've founded two music technology startups (Tiny Jetpack and Bandposters), have worked for major record labels in new media roles (Warner Bros. Records), and I studied music technology at the MIT Media Lab. I'd love to help you get your music tech business started.

I was part of a team led by Mike to design a robotic musical instrument. He fostered an exciting and fun work environment while achieving timely results. Mike is very creative individual and a great person to have in a brainstorm session. He is not afraid to try an innovative idea even if it means he has to learn something completely new. He’s also the go-to guy for quick solutions to problems! Mike was a pleasure to work under and I hope we can work together on another project in the future.

The arrival of Mike Fabio to The X PRIZE Foundation has been a a major blessing. He has provided me with tremendous support on the Web production front, going well beyond his required duties to help not only ensure the integrity and quality of content for our site, but help with many other aspects as well. He jumped right in to help manage our CMS system and various other technical implementations needed on our site. He is someone who can learn very quickly and adapt his knowledge wherever necessary. He's earned my trust and respect and I'm very glad to have him on our Web team.

Mike is an extremely talented individual with a strong drive in all things technical.

He is a wonderful person to be around and will definitely do great things in the future.

It was a pleasure working with Mike at Widget Post for as long as I did.

I am certain that with his knowledge and incite in creative technologies, he will be a very influential force in the "new media" world.

I am glad to call him a friend and a great person all around.

Mike is committed to getting results. Problems large and small would vanish after landing on his desk. He is a professional in both his approach and demeanor and was a pleasure to work with. He is one of the best people I have ever hired.

Mike Fabio is, in a word, awesome. He has a great deal of knowledge, professionalism and experience in online communications - and a great personality to boot. He is always pleasant and fun to converse with - works hard but knows how to have a good time while doing so. Mike is very passionate and serious about the work he does, yet he doesn't take himself too seriously. An all-around good guy, he is a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a talented, hip, young professional up on all of the latest online tools and trends.

Hands down, Mike is the smartest person I've ever been lucky enough to work with. He's also one of the most genuine and sincere people I've ever met, and he truly pours himself into each project. He is always at the forefront of new developments and understands the internet in a way very few can. He was an amazing manager and mentor, and I hope to someday work with him again. Simply put, if you want the best, Mike's your guy.

Mike is a highly creative, responsible, and intelligent person with lots of knowledge in his field. If you ever need someone to deliver under pressure, with flawless execution, he is your guy! He is probably one of the smartest people I know and was a great privileged to work with.

Mike is the big picture guy that always asked the right questions and the what ifs. He always pushed his team to try new platforms, tools, and dared us to try something different in our social media campaigns. This is the guy that convinced someone to rent 20 cats, put them in a room, and live stream them as a viral campaign idea!
Mike was is a wonderful person to work with and i can't recommend him highly enough!
