Justin Downey is an experienced marketing professional with a talent for seeing to the heart of a situation, identifying what marketing needs to do to achieve business objectives and executing the right mix of marketing activities that will best serve to reach that goal.

Justin received his Bachelors degree from Southern Methodist University in Advertising where (to the best of our knowledge) he is the only student to specialize in both of the Temerlin Advertising Institute's career tracks, Management and Creative.

After graduation he enrolled in SMU's renowned Cox School of Business' Summer Business Institute, affectionately nicknamed: "Business Boot Camp".

Entrepreneurial spirit in hand, Justin started "Big Ideas". Under the Big Ideas name, he was involved in off-line advertising and market research campaigns for B2C companies including: Nokia, HDNet, Young Audiences and Rockfish to name a few. He was also producer in charge of marketing for the independent documentary, Listen, which won nation-wide acclaim and a student Academy Award.

Eager for a challenge, Justin joined Graphics Marketing and Communications as their Assistant Creative Director. Justin created direct mail campaigns and sales/promotional collateral for some of GM&C's highest profile clients including: Six Flags Worldwide, and
The Houstonian.

In May 2005, Justin broke into the business-to-business market when he joined Starr Tincup as a project manager. He was quickly promoted up through the ranks filling a number of rolls including, Manager of Delivery, Senior Traffic Manager and Director of Marketing Activities where he played a leading role in creative design, technical development and campaign strategy.

In his Director Role, his responsibilities included: client management, corporate planning, marketing consulting, creative and technical direction, and project management.

While at Starr Tincup, Justin worked to revolutionize the marketing and sales activities for a number of high-tech software and service companies including: Digital Realty Trust, HRmarketer, Fieldglass, Deploy Solutions, QuantumClean, and The Trade Group.

Justin left Starr Tincup early in 2007 a little older and a lot wiser to start Justin Downey Marketing because he believed that marketing could be an investment and that small and start-up businesses in Texas deserved the very best in high-impact, low-cost marketing.
