Background

About Blake Smith

I am a driven professional with a passion for problem solving, building impactful strategy, disruptive marketing, creative thinking, and creating operational efficiency. At my core I am always motivated to grow strong value propositions for the brands I represent. I truly believe in being authentic in the way you market to consumers, and you see that every day in the way I carry myself as it shines through in my personal brand. I tirelessly look for opportunities to grow businesses, organizations, and/or not for profits constantly stressing the importance of building value for all parties involved. I look at brands holistically learning all functions of the business in order to better articulate the value proposition and to help better create operational efficiencies. I refuse to see barriers in life or in business and look to find opportunities for organizations to flourish and stand above the rest. On a day to day basis, I live by the mantra, “if you always do, what you always did, you will always get, what you always got” – Albert Einstein. Bringing a culture of care follows me into every role, and it is imperative for me. I focus on trying to make the world a "warmer" place to live using three key elements: 1. Empowering People to Thrive – in Life and Business 2. Helping Others Reach Their Full Potential with Heart and Strategy 3. Creating Warm Connections, Fueling Growth I look forward to connecting with you.
