About Kevin Connor:

Modern Strategic Branding + Communications

- Business owner with his sister Diane since 1999.

- We put the lessons of big business brands in the small business communications toolbox. Company works with companies and organizations who aspire to be great.

- Professionally branded communications can increase both top and bottom-line revenue for companies that care. This added credibility enhances an organization’s confidence and character with clients, prospects and, most importantly, employees.

- We’ve been helping companies and organizations express who you are, what you do and why you do it – with coordinated and consistent language and images. Bringing your brand to life, both on and offline, is what we do for our clients.

- Kevin volunteers with community groups, presents on the value of communications and networking in business success and works with high school and college students in preparing them for the workforce. He believes the ability to improve interpersonal skills is a talent everyone can develop and use to their advantage personally and professionally.

Remember, if you want to move products, services or ideas, you must learn how to move people.

Jared Gibson is the co-founder of Outworks, where he helps executive teams turn what they already know into a repeatable content system that builds trust before a sales call ever happens.

With a background in sales and marketing leadership, Jared is obsessed with one thing: making sure smart leadership teams don’t stay invisible. At Outworks, he builds executive content infrastructure that helps ideas travel, authority compound, and conversations start long before someone clicks “Book a meeting.”

He lives in Highland Park, IL with his wife and two kids. When he’s not thinking about content, distribution, or why most LinkedIn strategies are broken, he’s on the golf course or emotionally invested in Cleveland and Ohio State sports (for better or worse).
