"Mark Zahn has one of the most unique blends of creativity and professionalism I have ever come across in the business world. Not only is his approach in radio advertising well defined by marketing strategy, he also uses his sense of the obscure to create commercials that connect with consumers simply through voice and sound. Mark's strategy of each piece of advertising 'telling a story' shows how dedicated he is to helping the small businesses of our community connect with their potential customers. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Mark on many projects at Woodward Radio primarily due to his track record of success in producing quality commercials that would please our customers. Even after I left Woodward, Mark has offered his technical and creative insights in various projects that I needed the expertise of Mark Zahn to complete. Adding him to any project that requires a new creative approach and well honed technical experience is a move to secure success."

"Aside from generally being a good guy, Mark is incredibly tapped into pop culture, social networking and all things Interwebs. This comes through in Mark's work by enabling him to write scripts from all angles: straight sells, parodies, warm-n-fuzzy, etc. Mark has written some of the funniest commercial scripts that I've had the pleasure to read in my decade-plus in radio, and is willing to use somebody else's ideas if it makes the finished product better. More importantly, Mark's work proves that it's possible to be creative and witty without sacrificing the end result -- moving product. (And most importantly, I've never read a script from Mark that included the words "for all your (product) needs." That alone makes him a star.)"

"Mark is incredibly creative and I always look forward to hearing the ads he creates. He has been able to please some of my toughest customers with ads that both sound great and work! What I like best about Mark is the pride he takes in his work because it translates into a high quality product."

"Mark is a dedicated, reliable, and most importantly, very creative and talented copywriter. He not only helps make my job as an Account Executive more successful, he writes some of the best commercial copy I've seen in my 20 years of media. Mark's presence on the WAPL staff is invaluable and directly contributes to helping the sales staff increase sales as well as maintaining our current client portfolio."

"I've worked with Mark at Woodward Radio Group for 5 years. He's not only creative and inventive when it comes to writing copy, but extremely talented and knowledgeable in audio production. He's helped our department as a whole run more efficiently by bringing his expertise in all things computer related to our service. Always quick to help me when I run into any problems, I would recommend working with Mark on any kind of project. Funny, Smart and Talented all rolled into one!"

"Mark is one of the most creative people I've had the privilege to work with. I just need to come to him with an idea and he takes it from there. My clients are impressed with his new ideas and have had success with the scripts he's written as well as the web ads he's produced. He's great at meeting our deadlines and special requests. His attention to detail has prevented several potential problems and has saved my clients money and headaches!"
Nanette Stupecky, Account Executive, Woodward Communications (05/06/2009)
"I have worked with Mark since 2006 and have found him to be an impressive individual. His experience and creativity span a wide range from copywriting to commercial production to web design and administration. He is a talented, dependable and brings a sense of humor with him that makes even the most demanding or taxing situation a pleasant experience."
