“Tom is present at an impressive share of the moments of new business creation, such as the business model for the preservation of the aircraft carrier USS John F. Kennedy, and marketing of the America’s Cup yacht race, and entertainment properties. His rare combination of insight, passion and instinct for growth produce strategies that leverage the challenges of change, that resonate. As a result his clients find more pathways to ROI. I have seen Tom create strategies that break new ground and inspire veteran entrepreneurs.” Mark R. Bailey, Founder, MBCI
“Tom Martin's mind works like no other person I have met in the film/commercial production industry. His innate ability to predict market and consumer behavioral changes (spot trends in their infancy) ensures that his clients are positioned to take advantage of next year's news, before it happens. He accurately predicted the real estate crash and global recession years in advance. The ability to anticipate change, and develop entertainment and commercial programming and marketing concepts that leverage the evolving socioeconomic, demographic and psychographic trends is indeed Tom's forte.” Nicole McMillan, President, Lauderdale Beach Productions

Work Terms

Communication prior to contract is critical to ensure expectations are
met or exceeded. My approach is to afford clients the opportunity to
select the minimum level of involvement (hours) they desire from me per
week, in advance, with the flexibility to increase hourly participation
as opportunities are uncovered and collaboration warrants.
On
assignments of one month or less, I require 50% upfront, at contract
signing, with the balance due upon completion (plus any pre-approved
expenses as documented by receipts). On assignments of greater than
one-month, I prefer to anticipate a realistic monthly rate, and require
payment of the first month in advance, with subsequent payments at the
beginning of each month. All additional hours (pre-approved, beyond the
agreed upon weekly/monthly minimum) plus related expenses (if any) are
due at the end of each monthly pay period.
While I typically
charge $180 per hour, I have reduced my hourly rate to $150 per hour
for Guru leads only. As my skills overlap in so many areas (research,
strategic analysis, business planning, copy writing, professional
photography, art direction, graphic design, legal research, competitive
threat analysis, social media strategy, e-marketing planning, etc.) and
in many cases, may be put to use simultaneously throughout the life of
a given assignment, I recommend that you budget for at least 14 hours
of my time for preliminary research - then review budgets and needs
based on the strategies I recommend.
