STORY IS STRATEGY

I have spent 25 years telling stories.

Some stories have been films. Some have been animated features. There are a few video games in the mix. Maybe a few books, comic books, and magazines. You may even see some in your local toy isle.

A few have even - gasp - won AWARDS.

I love a good story...

I even have one myself...

Andrew & Sammi Ekmark, Founders of INK'D Greetings

"Tyler was incredibly helpful in identifying tangible opportunities for our business. We truly felt he put in the effort to fully understand our business and the areas we could improve upon and made suggestions based on his extensive experience in branding, licensing, and product development. I can definitively say that Tyler provided strong positive value for Ink'd by contributing his experience and relationships while refusing to engage in things not in his wheelhouse, which is incredibly important to avoid potentially bad guidance.

Don't wait until your product is finished to ask "How do we sell this?"

Many teams don’t need a full creative department early on. I act as a senior, one-person creative team, aligning story, design, brand, and audience from day one. When it adds leverage, I also help secure the right IP and licensing partnerships to expand reach and demand.
