In Episode 15, I talked to Gary Mueller, Executive Creative Director for BVK, a large advertising, and marketing agency.<\/p>\n<p>Almost two decades ago, Gary was struggling with his ego and his desire to be recognized for his talent. And then he went to church. During the pastor\u2019s sermon, Gary experienced a moment of extreme clarity. Call it divine intervention, universal guidance, or a message from God, but that moment changed the trajectory of Gary\u2019s career. He went on to found Serve Marketing, the country\u2019s first, all-volunteer, non-profit ad agency. From that moment, Gary has dedicated his career to shining a light on underserved causes and changing dangerous behaviors.<\/p>\n<p>In this episode:\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Gary&#8217;s journey to his &#8220;karmic assignment&#8221;\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>The sacrifices he made to bring Serve Marketing into the world<\/li>\n<li>Barriers for non-profits when it comes to marketing\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Why brands need a purpose\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>What other agencies can do to give back<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_code _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;]<\/p>\n<div id=\"buzzsprout-player-6618307\"><\/div>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><script src=\"https:\/\/www.buzzsprout.com\/1308133\/6618307-episode-15-gary-mueller-a-visionary-servant-marketer.js?container_id=buzzsprout-player-6618307&#038;player=small\" type=\"text\/javascript\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>[\/et_pb_code][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_divider _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Servant Marketing Snacks in Episode 15<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_gallery gallery_ids=&#8221;1531,1532,1534&#8243; orientation=&#8221;portrait&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][\/et_pb_gallery][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;] Have you ever heard of the term \u201ckarmic assignment?\u201d It\u2019s the idea that each of us has a purpose on this planet or work that we cannot not do.
