That’s me in the photo. My parents gave me three names, so I use them all. You may call me any one of the three, but most people call me Mark.

This is a short story of who I am, professionally and personally, including what others say about me. If you like what you find, I invite you to contact me for a friendly chat, to brainstorm your business goals, or to hire my services.

My Professional Life

I have enjoyed over twenty years of experience in marketing, including extensive work in online marketing since the mid 1990’s. I have built multiple very successful companies, authored three books, and provided marketing consulting to companies worldwide. All of this has been possible because I learned how to reach the right people with the solutions appropriate for them. Experience and creativity really do count in marketing and my experience translates into higher returns.

I am strategic, analytic, and creative. I offer quantifiable skills as a search engine optimization and social media marketing consultant, as well as extensive knowledge gained from a long and successful history of C-level executive management and business ownership.

I do the work that makes companies stand out in their industry and communicate with a stronger message that is recognized and respected. If you want to reach the right audience with a message they will respond to, I can help … and I can prove it.

I’m Seeking Something Amazing

I recently announced that I am shifting my career in a new direction. I am no longer accepting new clients, but I’m still delighted to help you. I am proud to say that I am one of those busy people who is not too busy to be courteous and helpful to others.

I have decided to rediscover my bliss in marketing.

In addition to my long time work as a marketing consultant, I am the CEO of a decade old Internet services corporation and co-owner of a bakery. These things have their perks, but they also have their awkward downsides. As I stated in the article titled “7 Things I Love About My Next Marketing Job“, I’m not good at everything, and I don’t want to be. I am good at marketing, and that’s where I want to focus. I am excited for my next adventure, and if you are seeking an experienced and dedicated marketing professional to complete your team, let’s talk!

What Do Others Have to Say?

I could talk about myself all day, but that could get boring. Instead of telling you how amazing I am, I welcome you to have a look at what others say about me.

My Personal Life

I am a race car driver, book author, blog writer (of many blogs), motorcycle rider, husband to a great wife, Peggy, and a proud father to Simon Aaron (9), Madeline Elizabeth (6), and Jack Walden (2).

My family is my greatest asset, and my legacy. I am highly involved in my children’s growth and education, and I enjoy my time at their school. In fact, the school lunchroom is my favorite neighborhood restaurant. I also know that their best lessons will come from their family experience, so I do my best to live my life in a way that shows leadership by example.

Although I list racing cars and authoring books as personal endeavors, there is also a lot of business to the fun. I have enjoyed tens of thousands of miles on race tracks all across the United States, and I provide training and coaching to other drivers. I have also greatly enjoyed my writing career. It is great fun for me, but it is also a lot of work, and comes with an investment of many … many hundreds of thousands of dollars. These are certainly more than just hobbies, but like any work that comes from passion, the work comes much easier.

Here is a video of my work at one of my other jobs. Be warned: If you are a Porsche enthusiast, you may hate me for the way I embarrass Porsche drivers in this video. Enjoy!

Since the work of great marketing is never really finished, when I need more inspiration or to blow off some steam, I choose motorcycles. This is my favorite of my motorcycles, and it is a ten foot long monster of a bike that even has a name and its own website.

Let’s talk. You may call me on my direct line at 866-a-web-guy (866-293-2489), email me, or Skype to username murnahan. There is also a long list of social networks where you may reach me. If I am busy, I will respond as soon as I become available.
