On August 30th, local consultant Mike Martino—known by many in the community as “Marketing Mike”—will be speaking at BNI Infinity’s weekly gathering. The session starts at 7:30 AM, hosted at Nove 535, one of downtown St. Pete’s most recognized meeting spots for local business pros.
Mike, a senior advisor with Accent—a consultancy focused on practical business strategies—will be walking members through modern marketing techniques that actually hold up under pressure. His experience includes more than 16 years working with business owners across St. Pete, helping them improve messaging, sharpen their sales processes, and connect the dots between marketing and actual performance.
“Most small businesses don’t need more buzzwords,” Mike says. “They need clearer thinking and strategies that match the way their team actually works.”
Accent has built a reputation for that kind of clarity—especially when working with organizations where leadership wants ROI, but also wants to keep people engaged, not burned out.
This week’s BNI Infinity session is part of an ongoing weekly meetings built around practical conversations that help business owners move the needle.
Attendees can expect a mix of takeaways, including:
- How to decide which marketing tools are worth your time
- What to fix before increasing ad spend
- The questions your customers are probably asking (that you’re not answering)
BNI continues to be one of the area’s strongest examples of community-based business development—blending history, walkability, and a deeply connected local network. Mike’s talk adds to that tradition, offering grounded marketing insights built for people who are too busy to waste time guessing.
