Edify Content

Writing and publishing content for a tech company is difficult work. We can help!

Edify Content is the only content marketing agency I know of that's founded by a marketer (Ellis, my business partner) and a software engineer (me). Our team writes blog posts, technical articles, thought leadership pieces, case studies, white papers, newsletters, and more. We can build websites, too! Need copy for that website? We got you. What about SEO and social media stuff? Yep.

We start with developing key messages to help you articulate the actual value you bring to the market. Then we apply those key messages to all of the content we produce for you. We write and manage content strategy, content calendars, and do social media, too, so you can be totally hands-off and just let us do our thing.

CEO & Co-Founder

Stairway Press

Imposter syndrome, negative self-talk, accomplishment addiction, and low-self esteem were major problems for most of my life. In Mental Prisons, I detail the years of arduous work I've done to get myself to a healthy space.

This book contains 1,000+ self-reflection questions and 350+ short chapters. Book design by Dave Woodruff.

Author of "Mental Prisons: A Self-Help Book for Nobody"

57 misconceptions about the job search to help people excel in the job search. I've hired a couple hundred people and managed teams all over the world. This book contains everything I know about being a job candidate.

Co-authored with my Edify Content co-founder, Ellis Fitch.

Co-Author of "Winning at the Job Search: How to Get Hired"

#1 New Release on Amazon (categories: Music Theory and Music Composition)!
Featured by the BBC, Guitar World, Amass.jp, and many other prominent publications.

This book chronicles my 22-year personal and musical transformation in an effort to play a song called "Fracture" by King Crimson guitarist Robert Fripp. As esoteric a topic as it may seem, the book is a result of my unexpectedly popular YouTube series, "Failure to Fracture," which has seen more than 300K views of the related videos.

I wrote the book in about 6 weeks on weeknights and weekends. It features contributions from Mike Keneally (Frank Zappa, Joe Satriani), Trey Gunn (King Crimson), Pat Mastelotto (King Crimson, Mister Mister), Pat Leonard (Madonna, Toy Matinee), Sid Smith, Steve Ball, and several friends around the globe.

The book is available at https://failuretofracture.com

My first book, "Clueless at The Work: Advice from a Corporate Tyrant" was published by Stairway Press in September 2019. It is available in paperback, Kindle eBook, and audiobook (which I self-produced). The book accompanies a podcast series about career growth, professional development, and self awareness. As of this writing, "Clueless" has sold a few hundred copies and has all 5-star reviews on Amazon.

Make Weird Music

I interview and collaborate with the world’s most creative musicians. I produce, record, edit, market, and release nearly all of the site’s content.

MWM has startup-like work, too. I've raised money from sponsors and have connected with a significant international audience. It’s become such a big effort, I built a custom audio/video production studio in my backyard.

MWM has many hours of video content and tons of written content. I raise money for artists (local and abroad), promote their work, and even host/sponsor concerts. Other than the logo (done by the brilliant Will Mejia!), I do all the artwork on the site.

Allstate Identity Protection

I bring new products and technologies to the market, like Allstate Digital Footprint and the Partner Experience API Program. In my current role, I am the lead technical interface for our Commercial Channel Partnerships (CCP) sales team, where I help vet deals for feasibility and standardization, support existing API client relationships, and more.

Previously, I led the ReactJS transformation of our legacy PHP portal and played a key role in our digital transformation strategy.

Director, Emerging Product Delivery

Music Traveler

Assisted the leadership and technology teams with product development, support, and global delivery. Web and native mobile applications built by a small team of globally-distributed developers.

Strategic Technology Advisor

InfoArmor

After delivering Allstate Identity Protection's Digital Footprint to the market, I took on:

* Solutions architecture and sales engineering for our Commercial Channels and Partnerships
* Leading the evolution of our external partner API integrations and client support
* Delivering new privacy-related features to the market (evolving the Digital Footprint)
* Launching our Innovation/R&D team to move the company well beyond our competitors

Exciting stuff coming. Stay tuned!

Helped position InfoArmor for acquisition by Allstate in 2018, led the launch of two major new products, and got deeply involved in planning our 2020 digital transformation. 

My teams brought Allstate’s Digital Footprint and Allstate Identity Protection products to the market (including a ReactJS overhaul). I worked with leaders across Allstate and InfoArmor to ensure a consistent and successful direction as we overhauled its functionality and purpose.

I also led our continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) implementation (DevOps), stabilized the product and its deployments, managed the containerization of our software and environments, and reframed the relationship between product and software development. All this in about 5 months with a small team of 5-6 developers.

I have helped to plan events, tons of hiring, software development life cycle (SDLC) planning, cross-functional team leadership... I could go on and on. It's a pretty active role.

Jargone

I rewrite job descriptions that are ruined by corporate jargon, meaningless buzzwords, and boring business-speak that scare away the best applicants. We want to change that and make the world a little better. Send us your existing job descriptions and we’ll turn them into something wonderful.

Co-Founder

Kensho Education

Kensho Education helps people develop self-awareness and find meaning at work.

Allen Plunkett (CEO, Phoenix Staff) and I started Kensho Education to help people get out of autopilot at work. Cory Berg and Anila Arthanari helped us put together a set of learning modules that help develop self-awareness and meaningful relationships in the workplace. Check http://kensho.io for more.

I’ve written two courses: Pause and Destine. They are about the same length as a normal college course with 30-40 hours of content, plus homework.

Keywords: Crucial conversations, radical candor, mindfulness, meditation, management, communication, self-actualization, acceptance commitment therapy (ACT), flow, strengths finder 2.0, five dysfunctions of a team, alliance.

meltmedia

I ran the technology department at melt, which was about half the company. It was a great challenge and I learned a lot working in the agency model. I also learned a lot about as an executive on the company's leadership team. This job definitely gave me five of the best years of my life. Wonderful people and some tough work.

meltmedia is a creative digital agency that cares about our clients and our employees. We worked hard to hire good people and keep them happy. We did a lot of singing, problem-solving, high-giving, and automating. I had a lot to do with that.

We built cool stuff, like Docker-based continuous delivery systems (http://totem.github.io), music education iPad software for young'uns (http://moozartapp.com), story-based analytics products (http://talu.io), digital marketing campaign management systems, and partridges in pear trees. While I was there, we were rated #1 mobile app developer, #1 web developer, top 25 Best Places to Work and other cool awards for the Phoenix area.

Keywords: Docker, GitHub, GitFlow, CI, CD, iOS, Android, Email marketing, SDLC, Adobe Experience Manager (AEM or CQ), Drupal, PHP, custom software, agency, pharmaceutical, FDA, HIPAA, regulatory compliance, technology executive.

Director of Technology

My company ghostwrites technical content that generates leads and sales for B2B SaaS companies. Our ghostwritten work has been featured on Stack Overflow, the front page of Hacker News, Towards Data Science, eWeek, Security Magazine, and elsewhere.

Here’s what we do to help our clients:

👉 Technical and non-technical blogging
👉 Case studies and white papers
👉 Long-form thought leadership content
👉 Key messaging and positioning workshops
👉 Website copy
👉 Product demo videos
👉 Customer testimonials and video interviews

Content production is difficult, especially for smart people like CEOs, founders, leaders, and influencers. They’re busy all the time, but they’ve got great ideas to share with the world.

This is what high-quality, engaging technical content marketing is all about.

I started a tech content agency after 20 years in the tech industry. I saw a huge opportunity where most techies don’t: a huge number people want to build their personal brand, become a thought leader, and share their expertise… but they can’t write to save their lives.

The types of people and companies we work with:

👊 C-level execs, senior leaders
👊 SaaS providers, funded startups, SMBs
👊 Marketing leaders (VPs, directors)
👊 Entrepreneurs
👊 Anyone who’s awesome

I've written four books, all published by Stairway Press:

📘 Clueless at The Work: Advice from a Corporate Tyrant
📕 Failure to Fracture: Learning King Crimson's Impossible Song
📙 Winning the Job Search: The Hard Truths About Getting Hired
📗 Mental Prisons: A Self-Help Book for Nobody
