Meet Comma’s 2025 Inaugural Marketing Minds Council
An African proverb says, "If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go TOGETHER."
At Comma Copywriters, we believe this is true. That’s why we host the Marketing Minds Council — to seek community, gain unique insights, and grow personally and professionally.
The council comprises eight executive marketing leaders, each representing a different industry. The Marketing Minds Council meet quarterly, share challenges, learn from each other’s experiences, and share strategies for success.
