I am a business coach and work with entrepreneurs to assist them in their marketing, advertising and goal setting. Ed Cass has a wealth of talent in interpreting the customer needs. He assisted in developing and creating a branding package for two client's who had little understanding of branding. He was patient as we worked together to create a strong brand. His creative talent hit the mark every time. I thought of Ed as part of the client team. Work was bar none, excellent. I would recommend Ed for any position or contract work. He delivers.

Ed Cass was a key member of a small but dynamic marketing team at The Macomb Daily newspaper in Mt. Clemens, MI. Ed was the Creative Services Manager and was responsible for designing promotional and marketing materials for dozens of internal and external initiatives and event sponsorships throughout the year. Ed also worked tirelessly on the "Echoes of Macomb" community book project which produced not only significant revenue for the Macomb Daily, but provided a well-received and successful "keepsake" for long-time residents of Macomb County. Ed was delightful to work with and is a gifted and talented professional.
