Bio
Caroline Duell
Dave's work as a leader in movement building is a rare gem that deserves to be widely amplified. He is a visionary with deep respect for the earth and it's people, and his better world movement business, LOACOM, demonstrates this positive impact. Dave and his partner Eric, and their team at LOACOM have created and supported many campaigns for All Good with global reach. The results of their ongoing marketing partnership can be seen in All Good's social channels, website, newsletters and other communications, and they have been a core partner in supporting significant growth phases of our business. Dave sits at the cross section of activism and marketing with a unique ability to create ripple effects by threading the two fields as one. He is a master of authenticity in story telling for people on the front lines of change. And, man, is that what the world needs right now!

I have been working with David Fortson and his company Loacom for the past two years in my role as CEO at Regen Network Development, Inc. Loacom has served effectively as our CMO including crafting marketing, messaging, social media engagement, and so much more. They have gone above and beyond in terms of acting as part of our team rather than just a third party service provider. I highly recommend David and Loacom to any company looking for marketing and messaging help with any company or organization associated with sustainability, regeneration, or social action.
