Patrick is the founder of Outsource Marketing. Prior to starting the firm in 1997, Patrick directed the marketing for two Seattle law firms as well as a Northwest-based telecommunications company. His experience in hiring, managing and coordinating a bevy of biased and uncoordinated marketing firms led to the formation of Outsource Marketing . . . a company that seamlessly delivers coordinated, discipline-neutral marketing.
He brings deep experience with marketing plan development, account management, company and brand positioning and message strategy, web strategy and naming for products, services and organizations.
An advocate of marketing education, Patrick instructed the evening Integrated Marketing Communications course at the University of Washington for five years and serves on the program's advisory board. He regularly donates his time speaking to and mentoring high school and college students interested in a career in marketing and has served on the boards of the Puget Sound chapter of the American Marketing Association and KidsQuest Children's Museum.
Patrick is an in-demand speaker regarding new and innovative ways to break through the clutter and marketing outsourcing and his articles have been published in local and national publications. In September, 2003, Patrick was recognized by the Puget Sound Business Journal as a 40 Under 40 honoree. He is a graduate of Gonzaga University. |
