I started my company out of a bedroom
in my house. I had a fat mortgage,
credit card debt, a couple of cars in the
garage, and a beautiful new wife. One
day I get a call from a guy at KHQ. He
tells me a company named WestCoast
Entertainment wants to meet with me.
Grease is coming to town and they want
to do a promotion with one of my clients.
It went so well that two months later
I get a call directly from WestCoast.
They offer me the opportunity to take
over the advertising for all the Broadway
tours they’re bringing into Spokane.

Obviously, I take on the account.

So when the first engagement of The
Power Marketing
Lion King is coming to town, it’s my job
Spokane, WA
to create a strategy to sell tickets for its
six-week run – something like 200,000
in a metro area of 150,000. So we did.
