ABOUT US

OUR COMPANY:

“Marketing without Creative is Invisible, and Creative without Marketing is Irrelevant.”
(Sean Gordon, Bydand Marketing & Design).

With the average human getting thousands of advertisements hurled at them each day, it takes more than just “a pretty ad” or "a bouncy jingle" to make something stick to the brain of a consumer. The over-used station voice-over with panning shots of your showroom and a shot of your exterior just doesn't work. Your ads have to make a statement and rise above the clutter of the market. Our Climber's Guides demonstrate many of the strategies that we utilize including placement and frequency necessary to make your campaign work.

We also believe that the key to professional execution, as well as one’s point of attack, should revolve firmly around collaboration. Your position is You. We’re not going to try to put words in your mouth, and give your ads a message that isn’t your own, but it may take some discussion to pull a few words out that give your business the personality and voice to allow it to be heard above the noise.

We’re a small group that's passionate about our commitment to you. We understand that our success will be based on your success.

OUR TEAM:

Jake Cunavelis, President/Creative Director
Jake founded Mt. Mansfield Media, Inc. in April of 2006 following a wonderful career of 14 years at WCAX TV, the leading broadcast station in the Burlington/Plattsburgh market. “I simply wanted to create an agency that would eliminate all of the frivolous fees and create a business model built upon results. We dive deeper into the process of making advertising work. I wanted to surround myself with people wiling to make an exceptional commitment to the the process of developing great creative with respect for the marketing goals attached to it. We’ve developed the proper culture and have employed the right people to make that happen.” Jake continues to strive to live up to his new title as Mini Media Mogul of Mt. Mansfield Media, Inc.

The Beamer Brothers, Producers/Directors/Copywriters

In the fall of 2004, Adam and Evan Beamer – siblings since birth – were reunited as friends after roughly ten years of separation due to brotherly distrust and miscommunication. After Evan graduated from high school, Adam was working in Boston as a musician, and the two of them simultaneously, though neither knew about the other, decided they wanted to be filmmakers. They joined forces, bought a Sony HandiCam, and went to work under the miniature-drink-umbrella sized canopy known as El Matador Films. It was an uphill battle, working for FedEx Kinko’s to both pay the bills and produce their innovative, though small-time, motion pictures and entering them into various film festivals. Credits include Official Selection in the Boston International Film Festival as well as Third Place in the DVXUser.Com Sci-Fest.

Ross Mickel, Graphic Designer

Ross came to Mt Mansfield Media a 4-year graduate of Castleton State College, armed with a degree in Communications and Graphic Design. Many grease soaked years in the fast food industry paid the way; (a 7 year veteran of both McDonalds and Burger King, yes both, and no, no non-compete clause was ever signed) and a short and less than satisfactory run in the traffic department at Clear Channel Burlington followed college. After coming to to Mt Mansfield Media, life has been a breeze, spending his days with cool people, learning, working and kicking butt. Ross likes to get it done, at all costs. Ross has designed countless ads for our clients, usually while rocking out to Led Zeppelin. Ross is the jack-of-all-trades. He is part IT guy, and lead graphic designer for print, web, direct mail and point of purchase advertising.
