Media Leads

We specialize in media lead generation, a new kind of business development giving you immediate sales conversations and powerful authority platforms.

We help business owners market their companies in innovative ways and expand their product offerings with new revenue streams.

Our job is to go beyond simply "getting you some new leads" and help you take over your industry in ways that none of your competitors are even considering.

We develop content platforms for business owners who want to grab attention in their industry - and quickly.  They need an ROI on their efforts, not simply "brand awareness".  But they also know the power of the age-old "tactic" of building meaningful relationships.  

We've taken that approach and built a system around it.  The power of one-on-one Connections, at scale.

Strategy + Action

Success in business and life is a constant back-and-forth of charting your course and taking the consistent steps everyday to move you forward.  Both ... are critical. My guests on this show range from entrepreneurs starting from scratch to leaders of companies looking to scale. For me, a show like this is all about joining forces with my guests to dig deep and create something new for you - whether that's a small insight that gets you unstuck ... or a path of massive growth through customized marketing and creative sales initiatives.

Concentric

Any successful relationship starts with finding your center - the truth at the core of who you are.  Only then can you develop the ability to truly connect with someone else.

Concentric is about aligning with people who share a common center.

This show gives you the tools and the skills to do just that through practical training, real-life stories and examples, and in-depth interviews with people who have taken this journey and come out the other side better for it.

Croft Media

We help B2B brands dominate their competition with revolutionary media ideas for business.

Every business is now a media company - either a good one or a bad one.  And if you don’t embrace this, your company or consultancy is going to die cold and alone in the shadow of your competitor. 

Remember…if you’re not speaking to your clients daily…someone else will.

The Jason Croft Show

The Jason Croft Show teaches the latest in business growth by bringing in experienced entrepreneurs as well as sales and marketing rock stars to discuss a new topic and cutting-edge tactics.  

Croft takes the same approach of in-depth interviewing of his guests that he’s become known for and adds a twist of fun - setting each episode in a moving vehicle and finding out what really drives them.

Empowering Coaches and Consultants with confidence and Video Visibility | Podcast host | Podcast guest | 30 yrs in Video

Ever notice how the "experts" getting all the attention are rarely the ones with actual experience?

That's why I've dedicated my career to amplifying voices that DESERVE to be heard.

As the founder of Media Leads and host of Strategy & Action and co-host of The Lion's Edge, I help accomplished leaders go from "unknown experts" to visible authorities in their space.

After 30+ years creating content around the globe (from award-winning films to exotic animal shows in Alaska), I discovered my true genius:

Pulling YOUR genius out and packaging it for the world to experience.

Through Media Leads, we build Video Visibility Platforms for coaches and consultants who are tired of watching less qualified "gurus" dominate their market.

On Strategy & Action, I dive deep with accomplished executives and professionals who've built something meaningful... and now help others do the same. No fluff. No recycled LinkedIn wisdom. Just real conversations about what it ACTUALLY takes to turn expertise into impact.

Want to turn your expertise into the recognition it deserves?

Expert In You - Marketing & Media Agency

ALC Inc.

Started this business from the ground up, built it to success and sold it in 2016.

Founder & CEO

I followed my passion to help other's live a healthier lifestyle and started my fitness business as a bootstrap entrepreneur.  I spent endless hours in my business as a fitness and nutrition expert and business owner.

After years of hard work training and instructing more than 60,000 hours, I made the decision to stop working in the business start working on the business.  This allowed me to open a second location and continue to grow and build the business into a highly successful and profitable health club. I sold this health club for substantial profits in March 2012.

Health Club Owner

Thin and Healthy's Total Solution

Started this business in May 2010 serving women in weight management. I sold this in 2016.

Business Owner

I opened this business in 2006 serving the community with weight management and nutrition. I sold this business in 2012.

A.L.C. Inc.

After leaving a thirteen-year corporate career in retail business management, I founded and operated a home-based company, Annie's Hutch with just fifteen dollars. I built this business into a successful global business.  I designed and manufactured handcrafted dolls, and patterns for dolls. I built my staff and business while still working from home, raising my children and shipping my unique dolls all over the world.  

My unique designs were hand selected and featured on the cover of the International Magazine  Country Sampler. In 1996, my patterns were purchased by an international manufacturing and pattern company that designed and manufactured creative dolls.

Founder

Corporate Business Management

I managed a variety of multi-million dollar businesses in the corporate retail industry in St. Louis and California. All were Fortune 500 companies that allowed me to gain corporate experience and knowledge. Responsibilities included managing, training and developing staffs of thirty or more people, budget and inventory control, creative display, event and promotional planning, marketing and sales and thought leadership.

In 1991, I left that career to move back to the Mid West with my family and raise my children.
