Welcome to Barnett Marketing Communications, my senior-level public relations and marketing consulting firm. 

Through Barnett Marketing Communications, I provide a wide range of top-end strategic planning, as well as public relations, marketing communications and market research services to a wide variety of clients.  For the non-profit sector, I also provide advocacy campaign support – from planning to execution – as well as non-profit promotion and fund-raising services. 

I’m based in Las Vegas, Nevada (hey – I drew the short straw), but I provide services to clients across the country – in fact, I have very few Las Vegas clients, except those I serve as a sub-contractor to local ad and marketing agencies.  In addition to what I can provide directly to my clients, I have an informal network of senior-level associates located throughout the country and in other English-speaking countries who provide either local or specialized PR and marcom support services. 

This virtual network ensures that Barnett Marketing Communications has the depth to meet all your PR and marcom needs – as well as the ability to provide continuity of communications on four continents (as well as in Canada, which seems to think it’s in a world of it’s own). 

 Barnett Marketing Communications specializes in healthcare, high-tech, not-for-profit (including advocacy and fund-raising services), as well as business or product start-ups.  But I regularly and effectively work with many great folks who don’t neatly pigeonhole into one of those categories.  A quick look at my client list will give you a fuller picture of my eclectic experience – and perhaps suggest ways we can work together effectively.

My clients’ typical size (based on annual sales) covers the range of Small and Mid-Sized Enterprises (SME), though in the hospital and hospital company field, I often deal with hundred-million to billion-dollar companies.

My software and high-tech clients range from start-up client or product ventures up to software developers in the $20 to $50 million range, though my largest high-tech client was a billion-dollar multi-national document and content manager.  In addition, I provide direct support services to a growing number of consulting and value-added software and high-tech resellers.  These businesses tend to be smaller, in the $500,000 to $7.5 million range, but their marketing and promotion challenges are stimulating and fascinating.

My healthcare clients range from solo-practitioner providers (doctors, dentists, natural/alternative healthcare providers) in the up-to-$250,000 range, all the way up to multi-billion-dollar, multi-national for-profit hospital corporations – including the world’s largest healthcare provider, the Frist family’s remarkable creation, HCA.

So ask yourself this: is Barnett Marketing Communications for you? 

Ask yourself …

·        If you need virtually any aspect of marketing communications support, from visionary planning to street-smart execution?

·        If you prefer to work with a senior-level consultant who’s got 30+ years of experience?

·        If you prefer to work with no junior account executives who’ll run up billing without adding much value?

If the answers are “yes,” then you’ve come to the right place. Barnett Marketing Communications is for you!

And while I’m at it, welcome to my website – this is the right place to learn more about me, as well as about my business – and you’ll learn what I can do for you. 

I invite you to take a look around, check out my services and get a sense of what I’m all about.  If I’ve done my job in creating this website, you’ll find lots of information that’s useful to you on the topics I discuss here. 

Even if you’d never in a million years think that you’d need to retain my services, I think you’ll find something useful here that you can apply to your own business.

You may even find some humor here. 

While I take my PR and marketing communications role on behalf of my clients very seriously, I don’t take myself so seriously that I can’t have some fun.  I hope you’ll join with me in having a good time poking some “gentle” fun at public relations, marketing communications and a host of other related topics – each ripe with potential for a good joke or two. 

I particularly enjoyed putting together my “top ten” lists, and hope you get a real kick out of them.  And hey, if you’ve got a comic turn of mind, create some of your own top ten lists that fit in here, and I’ll give you a shot at Internet comedy.

Welcome aboard!
