I'm a marketing strategist, entrepreneur, advisor to emerging companies, and a professional marketing speaker on topics including marketing, fandom, and social media. I'm the author of ten books, including three international bestsellers: *[The New Rules of Marketing and PR](https://www.davidmeermanscott.com/books/the-new-rules-of-marketing-and-pr), [Real-Time Marketing & PR](https://www.davidmeermanscott.com/books/real-time-marketing-pr), *and *[Marketing Lessons from the Grateful Dead](https://www.davidmeermanscott.com/books/marketing-lessons-from-the-grateful-dead). *

 

 My high energy presentations – using bold images, video, fresh ideas and success stories to energize audiences – inspire people to set old ideas and fear aside and use new tools to achieve real, measurable, no-cost results.

 

I'm available for keynote presentations, corporate seminars, and webinar appearances.
