Why Stout
The Stout System
Why it works for small business marketing.
We’re
actually stout
It means dependable (and chubby). Your time is honored. Long after the honeymoon is over we stay responsive to clients and partners. Calls are promptly returned. Emails are cheerfully replied to. Deadlines are met.
Humor motivates us
Business is important. So are souls. A little laughter goes a long way. Humor is at the center of our creativity and that levity is reflected in our work. It lifts our clients. Running a small business is tough. It ain’t for sissies.
Experience
60 years of combined marketing and communications experience gives us insights we’ve learned the hard way.
Working for big players like FOX, American Greetings and ABC News teach you a lot.
Working with huge brands like Subway, Ford and Miller Beer keeps you humble.
Training
Experience isn’t enough. Stout folks are learning—or teaching—relentlessly.

“Classified” Information |
Hobbies: | Golf | Movies |
Story | Back in the old days Paul was an actor. Working on and off Broadway with Earth’s most talented stage actors and directors fueled a lifetime love affair with words. He’s been a marketing manager for American Greetings and a Vice President of marketing for FOX. We are forbidden to talk about his golf handicap (whatever that is). |
John
Name: | John |
Titles: | John | Johnnie | Partner |
Years Experience: | 21 |
Hobbies: | Poker | Guitar |
Story | John’s “one of a kind” but he’d rather have four of a kind. We never play poker with this dude. Programming and developing for Bank of America was a good thing for him and it’s working out nicely for us too. On weekends he spends time with his Gibson J-35 6 string… Oh, and his wife too. |

Hobbies: | Cuisine | Biking |
Story | Joe can cook! From crêpes to steaks this guy can build serious meals. Speaking of seasoning, he got his as a senior designer for ABC/Disney. He admits to riding his bike way too fast — sometimes. He’s slowing down and getting ready to teach his little one the fine art of cycling. |
