Darren Minke, Creative Director

Darren’s love for artwork began at an early age when he started sketching the various bugs and animals he would drag into the house… much to his mother’s dismay.  He soon progressed to painting scantily clad women, which put her mind at ease.

Somewhere along the line, he was brainwashed into believing that being a doctor was a good idea; perhaps it was his mom’s revenge.  After doing four years hard time at the maximum security correctional facility known as Texas A&M, he managed to receive degrees in Biology and Psychology with a minor in dealing with institutional bureaucratic BS.  He was then wooed by the prospects of a life of ease and plenty promised by enrolling at Penn State Medical school, which he promptly declined for the much more interesting offer of being a starving artist.

In 2006, after years of planning, John Bush manifested his dream company, Adbongo, Inc. Since that time, he has steered the evolution and expansion of the ship from its beginnings as a boutique advertising firm to its current incarnation as a clean business accelerator with specialization in ecosystem design.

John weds the best of seemingly disparate worlds: the hard-core discipline of military life with the creative skills and passion of an artist.  Leading up to his creation of Adbongo, Mr. Bush gained his “captain” skills through his five successful years in the U.S. Marines where he served as First Team Leader in the Middle East, finishing his service at the rank of Staff Sergeant. Since he was a young child, John has nurtured multiple modalities of artistic expression. Painting is still his favorite today. The artist in John keeps Adbongo moving forward, beyond the cutting edge, while the military leader in him focuses on the structure necessary to keep such an ambitious operation from flying off the train tracks.

First, what exactly is a CMO? You know what a CEO and a CFO are, and now you can add CMO to your list of chief-based acronyms: Chief Marketing Officer. The CMO is a high level executive who generally reports directly to a company’s CEO.

Essentially, the CMO makes sure a company’s products are seen, sold, and the customers are satisfied. Read more …

DREAM.

You have one. Chances are, if you want to be a successful entrepreneur, you’re passionate about that dream.

The goal of our process- which we callOrganic Business Consulting”- is to bridge the gap between your dream and reality.    

What do you need to know in order to manifest your business goals? Whether you’re just starting to mold the initial idea or your established business is in need of a re-sculpt, Adbongo can help.  We devise and implement the kind of high-tier strategy typically only accessible to large companies with big budgets.

REALITY. How do we help you realize your business dreams?

ORGANIC BUSINESS CONSULTING: it’s a simple name for a simple process. Our process cultivates idea orchards.

1. We plant seeds through education.
*We teach entrepreneurs the universal process used by the big agencies. Most of these big agencies have created fancy copyrighted names for their processes, but, in reality, they all boil down to the same basic ingredients: *Research *Strategy based on that research *Execution of that strategy.
*By understanding this process, clients are empowered to make wiser purchase decisions.

2. We grow ideas by utilizing our Organic Business Consulting process.
*Research phase: First, we conduct market research, which may include focus groups, mystery shoppers, or other applicable methods, and we evaluate the competition for your idea.
*Strategy phase: Then, we come up with detailed blueprints based on our research findings. We consult with you regarding your business plan, we write or revise your marketing plan, and we develop creative materials to promote your message.
*Execution phase: Finally, we execute the creative aspects of your campaign based on the blueprints developed in the strategy phase. We produce your website, video blog, TV commercials, social media accounts, or other modalities as applicable to your particular plan.

3. We fertilize innovation by:

*Keeping overhead low. We give brilliant minds with not-so-deep pockets access to high tier initiatives by tailoring teams for your particular project.
*Staying limber. Our business model is designed to stretch and flex with your particular needs in order to catalyze a high ROI (return on investment).

Candidates

Designing and developing one’s dream business is highly personal. The founders of the business shape its look, feel and identity based upon personal creative taste and subjective preferences. Therefore, we believe entrepreneurs should step back and evaluate whether or not they are compatible with the consultants and advertising professionals they choose to help nurture their businesses. How can a business consultant help an entrepreneur develop her dream business if he doesn’t understand that dream?

We at Adbongo understand that we should only forge relationships with those clients with whom we’re compatible. What, then, are we looking for in a relationship?

*A sparkly smile…
*Nice calves…

Or more importantly,
*A sense of humor. While there is nothing funny about the majority of work we produce- business plans are not funny- our ideal candidates are professional but not stuffy, uptight or difficult.

*An appreciation of the value of our services. Our ideal candidates are happy to work with us. We do not engage in the hard sell. We want our clients to commence our working relationships with enthusiasm, free from the bruises and aches inflicted when vendors corral clients into contracts.

*Our ideal candidates have excellent, innovative ideas but are unsure how to translate them into concrete business ventures, or they need help growing their existing businesses.

*Our ideal candidates are passionate about transforming their business dreams into realities because they believe their products or services are going to improve the health of the planet or society.

*Our ideal candidates may not be educated in business or marketing fields (that’s where we come in), but they thoroughly understand their own industries.

*Candidates for our social media network consulting or training services may be slightly behind the curve when it comes to technology, internet marketing and social media networking (but are computer literate to some degree).

Participate in This One Minute Questionnaire to Find Out if You are An Ideal Adbongo Candidate:

1. Do you have experience in the industry in which you plan to participate? Yes or No.

2. Does the idea, product or service you plan to promote benefit the planet or society in some way? If yes, please explain in one sentence.
