The Speaker's Bureau provides schools with active DM professionals for classroom programs on a broad range of topics. The DMAW members who have volunteered their time for this program have found it to be both fun and stimulating. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact Karen Depew at karen@northwoodconsulting.com or 301-652-7074 to be a speaker on a wide range of direct marketing topics.



WANTED: Volunteer Experts to Help Tell Collegiates About Aspects of DM


To fulfill one of the many mandates of the Educational Foundation of DMAW –- the one to inform and advise college students about various aspects of our industry/profession -- we hope you will raise your virtual hand to help.

Our goal is to assemble a rotating group of about 25 articulate Volunteers who, when their busy schedules allow, will agree to visit the campus of a nearby college or university when a Professor seeks specific assistance with his or her Marketing or Communications class.

To sign up, simply reply to this request and advise what topic(s) you would be most comfortable discussing from one to two hours. If you use and can provide visuals and supplemental educational handouts, please include that information with your reply.

Students have had the privilege of hearing from some of the top professionals in the industry: Syma Mendelsohn, Ginny Daly, Denny Byrne (who would like to work as a team) plus Jim Doyle, Ed Gotta and Liz Murphy who said their appearances at Bowie State, Christopher Newport and Johns Hopkins and AU, respectively, were fun and stimulating.Talking to students is challenging and eye-opening.

Send us your best phone and email to use and we’ll be in touch!
