Drew McLellan has not only survived 20 years in the advertising and marketing arena, he’s thrived in it. After working for several other agencies, including Young and Rubicam’s CMF&Z, Drew created McLellan Marketing Group in 1995. At MMG, strategy and passion collide as they bring their unique style and practical smarts to life for their clients small and large. Drew and his talented band of co-workers have developed a proprietary branding process that has helped propel their clients to the top of their game.

Considered a national expert in branding for both for profit companies and the non-profit world, Drew is highly sought after speaker and has given about a zillion presentations at national conferences, key note addresses, training for his peers in the profession, college students and even his daughter’s seventh grade class. What’s so appealing about Drew that he can reach such a diverse audience? He’s a straight shooter who talks about marketing in a way you won’t forget. He tells stories, he gives you concrete examples and facts that you can take into the boardroom and most important, he gives you ideas that work. No matter who you are or what your level of expertise.

Over the years, Drew has lent his expertise to clients like Nabisco, IAMS pet foods, Kraft Foods, Meredith Publishing, John Deere, Iowa Health System, Make-A-Wish, University of Central Florida, SkiDoo and a wide array of others. When he’s not out preaching the good word of branding, Drew spends time with his daughter and pondering why the Dodgers can’t seem to get back to the World Series.

Drew has a Master’s Degree from the University of Minnesota but alas, he cannot remember their fight song.
