John’s marketing career started right out of college when he was promoted from sales to leading a sales team for a fast growing insurance company. The owners of the company allowed John great freedom to work on all manner of marketing programs including incentive travel programs where a full two hundred passenger charter of agents and their spouses vacationed in exotic locations around the world.

When John joined The GRA Group in 1975 with its almost limitless creative marketing style he knew he found a home for the rest of his career. He now serves as President of the Company and says: “I can’t think of anything more satisfying than watching our company help other companies exceed their sales goals through marketing plans that put fun into doing business.” “Well, that and time with my wife Linda and family or a round of golf.”
