I generate higher volumes of higher quality sales leads for my clients’ businesses, who are predominantly, HVAC contractors, distributors and manufacturers of HVAC equipment.If you want to know more about who I work with, go to the Comfort Media Group website where you will find a partial listing at the bottom of the page.
I’ve been involved in the world of social media tools and tactics since 2005, worked with a wide variety of clients to develop strategies employing social media channels and tools, integrating them into their traditional marketing, PR and Business Development platforms, executing and measuring their effectiveness.
And thank goodness I did it because I learned a lot and had a lot of fun too.
These days everything I do is wrapped around being the very best digital sales and marketing expert for the HVAC marketplace, and everything CMG does is designed to serve the needs of that market.

“I’ve worked now with Don for two years, building a writers promotional group that transcends genre boundaries, promotes independent booksellers as well as a collective of authors, and raises our collective profile and market-share. His encyclopedic knowledge of social media, of networking, and of the dynamics of promotion have directed me to make bold choices and re-invent the very process of PR. I can’t imagine a better adviser.”
