Who We Are...The Core Block
 
Bob Qamar--as Writers Block creative leader (we actually are all pretty creative), Bob is more than willing to totally immerse himself in our clients’ businesses, and generally has a lot of great ideas as a result. Bob got his start at J Walter Thompson, and today prides himself on demanding creative strategies that produce results. “Too many agencies fail to take the time to learn their clients’ businesses, then wonder why their creative misses the mark, he reminds us time and again.
 
Bob also brings over 20 years experience to marketing and program development, having launched many successful brands, and generated hundreds-of-thousands of leads for products and services both within the B2B and consumer categories through both traditional and electronic media.
 
Tom Pendleton began his life as an Industrial Designer, where he learned design, branding, and graphical representation with a strong eye to detail and quality. Tom manages all of Writer's Block design and production. He brings to the table a unique sense of timing, and the ability to manage an endless amount of work, all to tight and critical deadlines. Tom’s Industrial Design background also affords our clients access to a wealth of knowledge--be it in product design or in trade show and structural treatments.

WHO WE ARE
The Chinese curse, "may you live in interesting times," must have been coined in a business climate similar today's. The credit crunch and its reverberations are being widely felt, nowhere more so than in smaller organizations that have fewer marketing resources than the big boys.
Marketers need help to navigate these tricky economic waters while staying focused on profitable expansion rather than contraction. If you can grow, even in these times, you will emerge on the other side of the economic crisis ahead of the competition.
