Greg has always had his finger on the pulse when it comes to marketing. His knowledge of social media has been a great complement to our relationship in the digital and television world. You don't get results in marketing by just throwing money at it. Greg has stretched his marketing dollars and makes the most of the budget to get the best results for the company.
