1. Hello. My name is Julie Tucker Legrand.
That’s me on
Entrepreneur
Magazine’s
title page

2. I am a marketing project manager

3. I work with start-ups and corporations to help them
get their marketing projects “off the ground”

marketing consultancy
• Strategic Planning

• Marketing Collateral
• Sales Presentations
• White Papers
• Trade Shows & Events
• Road shows
• and much more ...
In short, our team handles the marketing block and
tackling from end-to-end

11. As an entrepreneur I learned…
How to look big,
when you’re still small
How to make limited
marketing $s go a long way
How to use integrated
design and content to
stand out in a crowded market

12. “Where’s your content?”…
content design
technology
… is a question you’ll never hear from us. We drive
all-aspects of your marketing initiatives from
concept through production.

13. We like to come in early to help companies avoid
common pitfalls “lean startups” make in their rush to
go to market

14. Look to us as your Marketing
SWAT team. We specialize in
helping early-stage companies that are ready to go to market,
but don’t have the experience or budget to manage in-house. Our goal is
to establish a solid marketing foundation so you can ultimately
become self-sufficient with your in-house marketing team. And
make you look good.
