Max Bunch

Widely regarded as one of the nation's top direct response fundraising strategic and creative talents, Tim Kersten brings 34 years of experience to STRATMARK as our new President.

Prior to joining STRATMARK, he served as Chief Creative Officer and Executive Creative Director at two national advertising agencies and ran his own successful direct response fundraising consultancy for nearly 25 years.

His proven track record as a leading creative and strategic thinker about the art of direct response fundraising, combined with STRATMARK's unequaled, leading-edge expertise in the science of data analytics, gives our clients unparalleled strengths in their agency partner.

Some of the nation's largest and most respected nonprofit organizations that have benefited from Tim's insightful and persuasive communication strategies include the Smithsonian Institution, American Red Cross, Salvation Army, National Park Foundation, Covenant House, The Heritage Foundation and dozens of others.

A frequent speaker at industry conferences, Tim's work has been recognized by his receipt of four Direct Marketing Association Echo Awards (gold, leader and two silver from 1986 to 2010) and a prestigious International Caples Award (2010) for his role in the creation of record-breaking direct response fundraising campaigns for US and Canada-based charities.
