Meet Brendan Schneider

Over 15 years ago, I started my blog, SchneiderB.com, in order to help the school MarCom professional. The blog was a place to share my journey, my successes, as well as my failures, with the goal of helping all MarCom professionals learn and grow. In that time, I've written hundreds of blog posts, spoken in front of thousands of school professionals, organized 10 VirCons (virtual conferences) including the School Marketing AI Conference, and, in total, helped thousands of school MarCom professionals from around the globe.

But it wasn't enough!

I repeatedly heard that marketing and communications professionals wanted a community created expressly for the MarCom professional.

It was from this desire that my dream for The MarCom Society was born. It's taken me years to get this idea off the ground, and I'm so proud to bring it to you!

Thanks,
Brendan

What if I need technical support?

We provide comprehensive support to help you navigate the platform and access all resources. Contact information for technical assistance is provided upon joining.

How is this different from free Facebook groups for school marketers?

The MarCom Society offers structured, professional development with expert-led training, accountability, and resources specifically designed for K-12 marketing professionals.
