Carla Jo has been in marketing and communications for more than 20 years. During that time she has worked with corporate and non-profit clients in the development of marketing plans, white papers, marketing collateral, articles, training materials and promotional solutions. Carla Jo has been both a buyer and a seller of promotional products, and understands how important it is to find a product solution that will work within your budget and make a lasting impression on your audience.
When not trying to come up with innovative marketing ideas for her clients, you can find Carla Jo running very slowly on the Hike n? Bike trail, seeking out Armadillo lore, or drinking her favorite Mexican beer.
