Never satisfied with the “typical” agency pitch process, George launched ROCK Creative Network four (4) years ago and flipped the sales process where instead of “selling”, he now listens to the needs of marketing leaders and through his network, connects marketers with professionals, agencies, companies that provide the specific solution that is needed. He believes in a win-win outcome every time.
