Member 238 | March 9, 2020

As a founder of three companies, I have a passion for creating innovative solutions that solve real problems and generate value for customers and stakeholders.

I have a degree in marketing and finance from Minnesota State University Moorhead, which gives me a solid foundation in both fields and enables me to apply my skills in various contexts and industries. I have over 6.5 years of work experience in marketing, sales, and management, leading and growing teams, developing and executing strategies, and delivering results.

Some of my achievements include launching Chezy, a platform that connects chefs and food lovers, in 2021, DoTell, a social app that encourages honest and meaningful conversations, in 2022, and Advertise Edge, a digital marketing agency that helps businesses grow their online presence, in 2017.

I am always looking for new opportunities and challenges to learn, grow, and make an impact. My core competencies are creativity, leadership, communication, and problem-solving. My mission is to create products and services that improve people’s lives and make the world a better place. My field of expertise is marketing, especially in the digital and social media domains. My values and goals are to be ethical, innovative, customer-centric, and collaborative.

Joe attended Minnesota State University Moorhead studying finance & marketing. He was very active on campus as a football player and part of many student organizations. He racked up 6 internships for various positions by his junior year which became boring to him so he started Advertise Edge in 2017. 

“Advertise Edge is a full-service Video Production Company with a strong belief in telling your story through the use of video marketing. We may be based in Fargo, North Dakota but we are ready to travel and always have our passports in hand. Through our creative process, we will work hard to build your brand and elevate your message to the right audience. We don’t want to see you waste your marketing dollars on stock videos and basic ideas. Instead, we want to help you stand out. We want to tell your story in a meaningful way using video production services to create a following. It’s our job to bring the story to life and to keep your audience engaged. We help businesses communicate authentically and effectively through video.”

Joe holds many roles within Advertise Edge but his main responsibility is building a culture where creativity thrives.

Sister company, Chezy was born in 2020 to fill a void for small businesses with high-quality videos but at a fraction of the price. Chezy is a national creative services company providing businesses with high-quality video and photography work at a flat rate. Chezy was created to deliver reliable and affordable creative content to any business.

DoTell was founded in 2022. DoTell is a flexible video marketing solution that works with your marketing agency. “At DoTell, we never work directly with a business needing video marketing. Our mission is to help small agencies provide quality and efficient video marketing content for their clients.”
