Steve created a highly effective advertising and marketing strategy for the Habberstad Auto Group during his tenure at the Long Island Press. He helped us build our brand both online and offline, and he truly aided our understanding of the Long Island market. Steve is a knowledgeable, genuine, and forward-thinking executive that is a pleasure to both know and also work with.

Michael Castonguay

Steven was responsible for significant growth into new categories while GM at the Long Island Press. He was a major contributor in launching an automotive section, developing a supplied insert program and relaunching a web product, all of which were previously non-existent or marginal. These three initiatives alone contributed to significant revenue growth for the Long Island Press within their first year. In addition, Steve's level of professionalism and business acumen made him a great colleague. I would highly recommend Steve's services especially within a turnaround or start-up environment.
