Stephen has a clear understanding of the challenges that mid-sized and small business face in marketing their goods and services. His understanding of both the math behind marketing and how individuals make decisions ensures that he provides the appropriate types of services for individual businesses. He is definitely not a "one-size-fits-all" type of marketer.
