    TAKING THE PLUNGE. Taking what I learned from outstanding mentors at two advertising agencies, I decided to take the plunge in 2005 and start my own agency. With Cook Communications, LLC, I select the projects I want to work on and the clients I want to work with, including businesses and nonprofits that are making a real difference. Central to all of my work is effective and compelling copywriting that stands out from the crowd and gives clients the right messaging to reach their target audiences. WE'RE VIRTUAL. Clients also benefit from the flexibility of a virtual agency with real resources, talent and time. With more than three decades of experience, my firm can provide the personal attention small- to mid-size clients don’t typically get from larger agencies, along with high-quality, award-winning work that helps our clients get results. WHAT OTHERS HAVE SAID. But don’t take my word for it. Take it from my clients:● “I have found Tim Cook to be one of those rare professionals who lets his quality of work speak on his behalf. In my 30 years of business, I have not found anyone who can consistently deliver with the quality that Tim does, time after time.” ─ Ken Michael, Vice President, Dox Electronics ● “When it came to finding the ideal media consultant for our organization, we were indeed fortunate to select Tim Cook. Tim’s approach is based on four simple but effective actions – listen, learn, absorb and collaborate. That approach was very different from consultants we had worked with in the past and much more effective in terms of positive results for our agency.” ─ Barbara-Ann Mattle, CEO, Child Care Council, Inc.Our services range from content development to PR, advertising and political consulting.

    During my nearly nine years at one of nation’s top 200 high-tech agencies according to PR Week magazine, I moved up from an account executive to senior account executive and, ultimately, director of client services.

Other responsibilities included supervising agency account executives and leading the agency’s political consulting and public affairs practice.
