John was a Chief Marketing Officer for Yum Brands, TJX, Dunkin Brands and Carlson. Today, he is the ecommerce marketing wizard who is CEO of Vermont Teddy Bear. His experience in retail, restaurant and E-commerce has made him a sought after speaker advisor in today’s rapidly evolving digital marketplace. He currently serves on the boards of Ignite Restaurants, and Famous Dave’s.

Some of his favorite things: “looking at the same things differently, making little things big, making big things bigger; creating shareholder value by discovering the power of both new and well worn, sometimes dog-eared, brands & surprising consumers with novel insight that gets them to change.”
