In everything I do, I strive to create an exceptional experience for my clients by listening twice as much as I talk. I affectionately call this "My Southern Way".

    “I truly believe that the core of success derives from communication, attention to detail, and practical principles. Longevity is my ambition, and I'm in the business of building long-lasting relationships with integrity as the foundation.

    “Prior to co-founding Creative Mischief, I spent nearly a decade working with IT and marketing solutions at one of the largest law firms in the Southeast. It was there I sharpened my technology, marketing and user experience skills.

    “For the past 19+ years I have provided strategic, interactive marketing and business solutions to clients of all shapes, sizes and stages. Specializing in the management of projects and teams with a commitment to innovative solutions and the development of long-lasting relationships that are based on communication and attention to detail. All based on the foundation of integrity.

  • 055 - Christopher Day: Adding Value Every Day

    Christopher is the CEO of DemandJump and a serial entrepreneur having founded 9 companies, all in different verticals, with exits to companies including Comcast, Time Warner, Motorola and National Water & Power.  Christopher also hosts the podcast 'Page One or Bust'.

    Through these experiences, Christopher discovered that marketing is the least served department in the organization with limited access to tools that truly help them know exactly how to drive the business forward by maximizing qualified traffic, that drives leads and converts to revenue.

    The vast majority of marketing tools enable marketers to do what they think they should do.  Marketers are largely left to guess at what they should do next versus being equipped with the knowledge of what actions will help drive the business forward.  Christopher is passionate about solving this massive pain point for marketers so that they can sleep better at night and be strategic contributors inside every company.
