Meet Dave
What's up everyone!
I'm a cartoonist, copywriter, storyteller, and founder of Topsail Creative. Over the past 15 years, my experience in sales and marketing has shown me the power of words and images - how the right use of specific words, or perfectly crafted image can resonate with people on an emotional level and drive them to take action.
​
At Topsail Creative, I saw a gap where business owners felt in the dark with their current marketing agencies. From extending budgets in hopes the next campaign sticks, or seeing the monthly retainer hit without knowing what was even done for them that month. My Fractional Creative Director services we developed to help businesses like yours break free from the confusion and build a creative strategy with YOU that will bring more customers in your door. Whether it's a quick meeting to provide actionable next steps or working side by side with you and your vendors each month as your creative partner, my focus is to help you sail forward.

Thanks for stopping by! Don't be a stranger, send me a note and let's connect!
