Pepper Group Welcomes Brandon Lewin, New Business Development

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Palatine, Illinois, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) February 14, 2012 -- Palatine, IL, February 2012—Pepper Group, a leading Chicago marketing firm, has hired Brandon Lewin to assist with New Business Development. Brandon also brings a wealth of social media, search and related technology expertise, allowing the agency to offer a valuable added resource to its clients.

“Our clients are increasingly asking about strengthening their social media initiatives, and we’re delighted to address their needs better than ever before,” says president and CEO Tim Padgett.

Previously, Brandon was president and CEO of DoughNuttz, Inc., a social media marketing service company. Logging 10,000 hours on LinkedIn, he has created a practical, efficient process for helping businesses achieve their goals on this site.

As for common social media missteps, Brandon observes that “many companies use social media for self-promotion, instead of creating value for their customers.” He adds that social media does not replace traditional business relationships. “It’s a way you can start to build trust, credibility and offer value—but then you can take the conversation offline.”

Brandon has shared his insights at numerous speaking engagements for groups, companies and associations, including Vistage International and the Small Business Advocacy Council (SBAC).

When he isn’t drumming up new accounts and helping clients maximize revenue, Brandon spends time with his family, plays basketball and is an avid fan of the Chicago Bulls, Cubs and Blackhawks. A self-professed lifelong learner, he especially enjoys books by Malcolm Gladwell.
