To find honesty, creativity and professionalism in one company, much less one person, is a difficult thing to do.

Jeremy Knauff, Creative Director of Wildfire Marketing Group (WMG), not only talks the talk but he definitely walks the walk.

What I first liked about Jeremy was that he looked and acted the part of a competent business owner without coming off stiff. He’s a kind, funny guy once you get to talk to him but he’s also no-nonsense when it comes to business. I respect that a great deal.

We have worked on several projects together for his business and his clients. Through all of them, he has shown me his vision, given me the reins and then expected me to deliver. Like I said, “no-nonsense”. I think that comes from his background in the military.

Jeremy said, “After I got out of the Marine Corps, I started and crashed my first company in 2000, then I worked in just about every aspect of marketing, ad agencies, internet marketing firms, in-house with Fortune 500 companies, etc. My last job before starting WMG was at an SEO firm. I found out they were billing clients for work that had never been done and when I informed the owner, he fired me. It turns out, he was aware of, and in on it.”

I think that Jeremy’s heart is always in the right place. And it’s rare these days to find someone who knows how to run a business properly and professionally but with a sense of compassion for the “little guy”.

More proof that Jeremy’s marketing skills are worth it: “I started WMG to help give small companies the tools and resources they needed to compete with larger companies. One of our first clients was in the specialty bedding industry, competing against multi-million dollar companies like Select Comfort, Nautilus and Tempur-Pedic. We enabled them to out-market their competitors online, which eventually led to a 54 million dollar contract with the Hilton Hotel Corporation,” said Jeremy.

If you have a business that has tough competition or you just need to boost your marketing and look a little different than the business next door, try out Wildfire Marketing Group. At the very least, you’ll get to see how Jeremy runs his business and maybe learn a thing or two in the process.
