Pavone Marketing Group, Inc.,​ - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, USA

Mike is a Mad Men-era copywriter who turned to the dark side and became an account guy years ago. He still writes some, but most of his time is spent on the brand strategy and account management side of the world. For years, he was head of his own Philadelphia-area shop under a variety of names --- Diccicco Battista and DDCworks included. In 2018, he and his partner sold the agency to Pavone Marketing Group where Mike now spends 100% of his time advancing brands and solving client problems. In his spare time, Mike plays tennis badly and gin rummy with a flair for the dramatic.
