Anne Martin

Anne Martin is president of Anne Martin Marketing Communications, a public relations and web development firm specializing in home furnishings and lifestyle clients. She studies each client's business until she understands its problems and successes, then helps the company push all the right buttons so that the tangible and emotional benefits of its products and services shine through.

Martin avails clients of her long-standing relationships with opinion leaders who trust and rely on her for targeted, pitch-perfect information that their audiences care about. She puts herself in the consumer's shoes to help clients communicate with consumers in ways they relate to and understand, without the usual trappings of smoke and mirrors. She can also help clients venture beyond formulaic communications, and avoid the mediocrity trap to which industries fall prey.

Martin was previously Director of Marketing Communications for WestPoint Stevens, a leading manufacturer of bedding and bath products. There she managed the personality and image of the $1.7 billion Company and its products and brands. She also spent ten years as Director of Marketing Communications for F. Schumacher & Co., the home furnishings concern. Her background also includes public relations for arts and consumer products clients at Ruder & Finn in Chicago, and fashion and celebrity publicity for Ogan/Dallal Associates in New York.

Martin is the recipient of numerous awards for public relations, advertising and newsletter excellence. For more information, please email Anne Martin at anne@martinmarcom.com.
