We also assisted in the creation of high-impact marketing campaigns that highlighted NTC’s innovative solutions and industry expertise.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Programs:

These programs not only contributed to community welfare but also enhanced NTC’s corporate reputation, further solidifying their leadership position.

Client Testimonial

Danny Byrnes, Chief Revenue Officer for Covius, praised the partnership, stating, “Working with 7MPR brought our company from the underdog to the 400-pound gorilla in the mortgage industry. We landed every account we collectively went after. Tactical planning and execution was not only successful but fun. Carolynn takes the time to understand not only what you’re after but why, she helps you figure out how. I’ve been in sales and marketing for 40 years and have worked with a lot of good people, Carolynn is the best. We can all probably climb a mountain without help, I’d rather do it with an experienced Sherpa.” (August 2024)
