I am a Harvard grad with a sociology degree. I use that in my everyday life as a Marketing and Social Media Director for 1parkpalce.com and my consulting to large corporations by analyzing the marketing needs of each business and how they can leverage their own personality assets to humanize their marketing and truly connect with their consumers and prospects in new ways. I employ every weapon of the guerrilla marketer - SEO, SEM, print, event, graffiti, email, snail mail, tutorial, etc. to get my clients what they want - the phone to ring so the dollars go in the pocket book, not out of it!

I've been in technology marketing since the 90s and watched as many companies went under for bad business models and worse code, so I know a thing or two abut building web applications and sites.

The corporate schpeel:
Mary McKnight began her career in technology just about the time the dot com bubble was bursting. Having worked for a number of well funded startups that went belly up in the bust, Mary made a lateral move into the high power world of Venture Capital to gain a better understanding of what makes or breaks a tech company. In 2004, Mrs. McKnight landed a position as a Senior Consultant for ColdWave Technologies, a diversified software company, servicing Venture Capital and Fortune 500 clients like Warner Bros., Coca Cola, Exxon, Bank of America, NCI Building Systems and Ford Motor Credit. While at ColdWave, Mary worked within the feature film and sporting event industries to develop and implement large scale consumer Internet marketing and SEO campaigns for brand name products and property franchises.

In 2006, Mary and then husband, John, were approached by a friend to build a simple blog for a local real estate firm. This rather insignificant event sparked the beginnings of RSS Pieces, a real estate and entertainment blogging platform that expands the feature set of the typical blog into a powerful lead generation tool and consumer fly trap for Realtors. With a strong commitment to providing a quality product and technical education, RSS Pieces provides Realtors with the tools to market themselves on-line through blogging. As Chief Marketing Officer for RSS Pieces, Mary spent the majority of her time teaching professionals how to turn their blogs into powerful sales tools and lead generators with out-of-the-box marketing methods, SEO and proven copy writing techniques.

Mary currently works as the Director of Marketing and Social Media for leading eMarkeitng firm, 1parkpalce and also acts as a Fortune 500 blogging and social media evangelist.
