Carter Harkins

Chief Innovator, Co-Founder
Carter, the other big cheese at Spark Marketer, is a master of big words and cooking, though not at the same time. He is a perfectly balanced mixture of Yin & Yang, and has a fine-tuned eye for great design and storytelling. He is a lover of coffee, cigars, good books, and anything that is not sports related, and his soothing voice has earned him the honor of being our very own Morgan Freeman. In fact, many clients call just to hear his voice.
Cori Nicholson

Cori Nicholson

Account Owner
Cori is one of our Account Owners, which means she spends her days talking with clients, coordinating requests, and keeping everyone happy. She’s got her hands full at home too, with two boys, three dogs, two cats, 11 hens, two roosters, and two guineas. When she’s not working tirelessly for our clients, catch her kayaking, hiking, 4-wheeling – anything outside!
Chris Pitts

Account Owner
Chris is freakishly tall, so when he’s not communicating with clients and helping small businesses grow and thrive, he’s our “go-to-man” for reaching things on the top shelf. He is also a Tennessee Titans fan, but we never claimed he was perfect – just tall. Learn a little more about Chris in this quick intro video.
Jonathan Sanders

Jonathan Sanders

Video Production Specialist & Special Project Social Media Manager

Jonathan has been with us from the start and knows a little bit about every aspect of the business.

He’s also largely responsible for ensuring we all have enough coffee and cat/dog videos to get through the day, so naturally, we love him. Learn more about Jonathan in this quick intro video.

Tom Smodic

Director of Marketing

Maureen was born and raised in Kentucky and has more cousins than we can count on all our hands combined. She’s a wife and mother of three (four if you count her huge fur baby, Eliot, an Old English Mastiff), so organization and efficiency are part of her DNA.

Oh, and she loves her birthday, so, happy birthday, Maureen!
