Red Frog, agency ambassador

Red Frog has always had a knack for smart marketing strategies. He believes that blending in, whether it is a brand, company or individual, will never get you to the next level. And Red Frog has lived his life living and breathing this credo.

Red Frog’s experience began at the swamp, where he quickly learned that just being another frog on the lily pad wasn’t going to fulfill his internal drive to stand out an make a difference. So he left his home swamp and ventured out into the fast-paced world of business and marketing, where he easily found his calling. After a few years of climbing the corporate ladder, he decided that his spirit was too free to stay confined to the traditional agency structure.

His greatest strengths are his insatiable quest for ultimate client satisfaction, natural ability to take businesses and turn them from tadpoles into full-grown frogs, and love for non-traditional strategies that gets people talking.
