Dave Murray
Mayniax Branding
Branding, Marketing, Advertising, Consulting
I'm Dave Murray, The Big Guy at Mayniax Branding, and I'm an incorrigible smartass. But, I take what I do very seriously. The world is broken, and we believe entrepreneurs are the only ones who can fix it. But they'll never get that chance if no one cares about their brands. So, with a little bit o' nuttiness, a little bit o' research, and a lotta bit o' guts, it's our job to make people care. Oh, and caffeine helps, too. Stay gutsy, gang!

Jesse Wilson
Comma Inc.
Consulting, Web Development, Writing, Design, Marketing
I'm mostly into joy, and how to help people have more of it. The prospect of helping the world be a less fear-driven and more joyful place—that's what energizes me. As a coach and consultant, I work with leaders to understand what really drives them and have the faith to make more and more of what they do and say be true to their best selves, and help them build organizations aligned around their core motivations. Messaging and communications matter to me too, because we can only make the real difference in the world that our hearts want to make if we can help others know and be engaged with the true story we're trying to tell. So I help people with websites and writing and design and marketing, etc. etc. All, as U2 sings, in the name of love.
