About Cory L. Johnsen

I have a strong passion for marketing, not just the strategies themselves, but learning about a business, the owners goals and objectives, and then putting together a plan that best suits their needs, goals, and helps them grow and accomplish success. At Michels Communications I work with clients small, medium, and large. We meet with a client, learn about their business, understand their goals. Then my team and I meet and discuss, and go to work. We research case studies, best practices, and put together a comprehensive solution within the clients budget that will help them reach their goals. Then we Kickoff the plan! I have over 11 years of experience working with businesses of all sizes on their marketing strategies with both traditional and digital tactics. In my 11years I moved up the ranks from Account Executive, Senior Account Executive, Sales Manager, and VP of Sales & Operations. I have worked with local, regional, national, and international clients such as Menards, Lewis Drug, Fareway, HyVee, Lowe\'s, Harbor Freight, Sunshine Foods, ALDI, Shopko, Kmart, Home Depot, Hobby Lobby, McDonald\'s, Hardee\'s, Godfather\'s, Pizza Ranch, and much more. I am a family man first. My wife and my children are my motivation. I work hard so they can see what hard work looks like, and also see what hard work creates for quality of life. When I am not working with clients, my wife and I own an energy drink business called BLITZ ENERGY, we focus on online sales with some wholesale agreements in place locally.
