Over the past decade, he has been involved in over ten startups and has consulted for many businesses ranging from small businesses to multi-national companies and even nonprofits. While he loves nearly all social media platforms and digital marketing channels, Max’s passion lies with Facebook and email marketing. These two channels have helped him grow his own businesses past the startup stage incredibly fast and cost-effectively. He was able to grow his e-commerce brand, Startup Drugz, from 0-$100,000 in sales in less than 4 months and hit a $500k run rate in just 6 months. This was all accomplished with Facebook marketing and several automated email funnels.

Since then, Max has spent his time focused on scaling some of the largest companies and personal brands on the planet through paid advertising efforts. Companies like 3M, Sam’s Club and Rival Media have all gotten drastically positive results directly from the paid advertising efforts he helped to implement. The reason Max continues to spend so much time on his craft is due to his passion for helping others achieve their desired success. That’s why you’ll find him working tirelessly every day on improving his client’s Facebook ad accounts and staying up-to-date on the latest emerging trends and advertising strategy.

He’s an internationally recognized lecturer in Facebook Marketing and has spoken over 730 times in 17 countries, spanning 5 continents, including keynotes at L2E, PubCon, Conversion Conference, Social Media Marketing World, Gultaggen, and Marketo Summit.

Dennis has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, New York Times, LA Times, National Public Radio, TechCrunch, Fox News, CNN, CBS Evening News and co-authored “Facebook Nation” – a textbook taught in over 700 colleges and universities.
