Good enough is never enough.
About Mark
He’s a fountain of energy. A wellspring of passion. And a stickler for the highest standards. So when it comes to results, “good enough” is simply not in Mark Nardone’s vocabulary. As executive vice president at PAN and a 20-year veteran of the PR industry, Mark’s focus is on solving business problems. To that end, he views PR as one of the most flexible and cost-effective tools in business today. And he believes strongly in its power to reach stakeholders — from executives to investors and customers to prospects.
With a deep understanding that PR is not merely about getting “good ink,” Mark works with teams to design scalable PR programs that closely align with client goals. Together with his brother Phil, he fosters a culture of knowledge sharing and accountability. Mark also oversees client relations, working with the firm’s directors, and has been instrumental in company and product launches, investor relations, crisis communications, market positioning and IPOs.
Prior to joining PAN, Mark was an account manager at Rourke & Company (now MS&L), where he managed the firm’s largest high-tech client. Earlier in his career, Mark managed PR for The Flatley Company, a $500M real estate developer. Beyond PR, Mark serves on the Board of Directors for Children’s Friend, a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the lives of children in Essex County. Mark attended the University of Louisville in Kentucky and holds a BS from the University of Central Florida.
