Meet Marisa:

Marisa has always been obsessed with business. While other little kids played with G.I. Joe and Barbie, she created imaginary companies in her basement and spent her allowance on office supplies.

Marisa brought her entrepreneurial dreams to fruition in 2002 when she founded The Whole Brain Group and grew it into a full-service inbound marketing agency with clients around the world. Ten years into her journey, she realized her company had “hit the ceiling,” and would not be able to scale without changing the way it was operating. Within two years of implementing EOS® in her firm, Marisa delegated day-to-day operations to her Integrator to take advantage of an extraordinary opportunity to become Director of Marketing for EOS Worldwide.

During her four years on the EOS Worldwide Leadership Team, she transformed the company’s marketing efforts, implementing a lead generation strategy that helped the company grow by more than 400%. Her passion for teaching people about EOS inspired Marisa to become an EOS Implementer and dedicate herself to helping other entrepreneurs break through the ceiling, accelerate their growth, improve profitability, and have more fun.

Today, Marisa loves spending her time teaching, coaching, and facilitating sessions with clients in her dedicated EOS session space in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Ask Marisa’s clients, and they'll tell you that she’s structured and demanding, but fun and loving at the same time.
